Semi-Automatic Battery Electrode Winding Machine

1. Equipment Description:

This machine is mainly used for precision winding of cylindrical lithium-ion battery cells.

Working process: Manually feed cathode and anode sheets into the winding section, interleave them with the separator, wind according to process requirements, automatically attach termination tape, and automatically discharge the finished cell.

 

2. Equipment Functions and Features

1. Single-needle through-shaft winding structure.

2. Manual feeding of electrodes, automatic winding, needle changing, tape attachment, and discharging.

3. Lateral taping method (termination tape perpendicular to tab); flat and accurate tape application without pulling the cell tight; reliable and stable taping.

4. Adjustable winding speed.

5. Two active separator rolls, tension controlled by proximity switch; smooth auto-adjustment during winding; adjustable upper and lower tension.

6. Separator wraps on the outside at the end.

7. Wound cells have no damage, core extraction, or misalignment.

8. Easy operation and quick specification change.

 

3. Process Flow

The equipment meets the cylindrical lithium-ion battery winding standard: separator fully wraps the anode, anode wraps the cathode.

Process flow:

1. Separator pre-winding: Uses toothed blade to reduce separator length.

2. Feed anode: Manually feed into winding unit.

3. Feed cathode: Manually feed into winding unit.

4. Winding.

5. Transfer to taping station.

6. Separator cutting, taping, and discharging.
