Industrial solutions
Battery manufacturing is a key sector in the modern energy industry, driven by the increasing demand for energy storage solutions in electric vehicles, renewable energy, and portable electronics – a fast-growing and dynamic field of technology with global significance.With our expertise in web-guiding and rotationally symmetrical components like rollers and lightweight parts, including custom functional surfaces, we help ensure safe, efficient, and cost-effective production lines for the battery industry.
For over 40 years now, we have been developing customer-specific solutions for numerous manufacturing and finishing processes for web-type materials, such as film, paper, textiles and aluminium strips. Thanks to our many years of expertise throughout the entire production process, we develop innovative rollers and lightweight components with specialized functional coatings that are used in high-precision manufacturing processes such as the production of lithium-ion batteries and fuel cells. Above all, we see ourselves as a technology partner that sustainably increases efficiency in battery and fuel cell production by leveraging our deep understanding of the production process.
We have summarized all the advantages of INOMETA’s innovative battery manufacturing solutions for you:
From the perfect adaptation of products to the specific requirements of battery production, the manufacture of large quantities for series production and large assembly lines, to the precise production of rotationally symmetrical components, we offer a wide range of services:
Our product range includes winding cores, stator rollers, web guide rollers, heating rollers, web tension measuring rollers, sensor rollers, and rollers and winding cores with specialized functional surfaces (coatings):
We also provide a comprehensive roller service, from on-site analysis and inspections to personalized advice and a tailored repair and recoating program for CFRP, GRP, aluminium, and steel rollers. This ensures the highest quality and efficiency in battery production.
Web guiding is a key factor in the production of batteries. INOMETA supply innovative precision smooth-running rollers that are also suitable for use in dry and clean rooms. These rollers enable particularly gentle handling of sensitive materials such as separator foils and electrode coatings. They are characterized by minimal friction and smooth running, which increases production speed and reduces material damage at the same time. The use of these rollers in large production lines with working widths of up to 2 meters ensures that consistently high quality is achieved even with high production capacities.
Calender rollers and other rollers used in electrode and film processing must be both highly resistant and precise to optimally handle the delicate materials used in battery production. Our specialized coatings for steel, aluminium, and CFRP meet these demanding requirements. They combine exceptional wear resistance with excellent traction.Our custom-designed coatings, tailored to specific customer needs and applications, are ideal for safely transporting highly sensitive web surfaces. They can be formulated to be electrically conductive, making them ideal for drying rooms. Additionally, our PROTEK® coatings are known for their high wear resistance and minimal surface roughness, ensuring optimal substrate guidance through excellent traction and sliding behavior. These properties contribute to minimizing maintenance intervals and significantly extending the service life of the rollers.
To ensure consistent and high-quality production, precise web tension measurement and control are essential. INOMETA offers high-accuracy web tension measuring rollers that provide reliable data even at the lowest tension levels. This is particularly important for handling thin and sensitive substrates like copper or aluminium foils, preventing deformation or damage. Precise web tension control leads to greater process stability and reduced waste, significantly improving efficiency in battery production.
In numerous battery manufacturing processes, such as the drying of electrode materials or the lamination of foils, a uniform heat supply is essential. INOMETA’s electric heating rollers (INOheat®) provide precise temperature control and ensure even heating across the entire roller surface. This minimizes temperature variations and guarantees consistent product quality. In sensitive areas like electrode production, stable heat conduction is essential for optimal material preparation and processing.
Another highlight in INOMETA’s product portfolio are our WinCore® winding cores, including the Ecoline and Proline series and our WinCore® winding cores with winding support and cut-resistant surfaces. Made from aluminium and fiber composite materials, these cores offer maximum stability and low weight. They are ideal for winding processes in battery production where substrates such as separator foils and electrode foils need to be wound precisely and crease-free. The durability and sustainability of WinCore® winding cores in various designs contribute to reducing total cost of ownership and minimizing resource consumption.
