180-Type Automatic Electrode Stacking Machine – Separator Handling & Auto Taping (No Tail Turning)

I. Function Overview

The separator is actively unwound, guided onto the stacking platform via a tension mechanism, and moved back and forth by the platform to place the electrodes. Two robotic arms with suction cups separately pick up positive and negative electrodes from the two left-side feed hoppers, then stack them onto the platform after precise positioning. Upon completion of stacking, the separator is cut, and a robotic arm transfers the cell to the adhesive tape station for automatic taping. The next cell then starts automatic stacking. (No tail turning).
