Demonstrations will focus on improving throughput, flexibility, and integration across battery cell, module, and pack assembly. Attendees can interact with exhibits and speak directly with product experts on applications for EV manufacturing.
Dr. Andreas Letsch, Director of the Battery Factory Automation Center of Competence at Bosch Rexroth AG, will also present on “High Throughput Production by Seamless Material Flow” as part of the event’s Open Tech Forum.
Technologies on display include:
- Battery production automation: Systems for efficient joining and handling of cells and modules, including pallet-based and plastic chain conveyance solutions integrated with control, I/O, drives, motion control, and PLC/IT.
- Conveyance for EV assembly lines: Moving demos of the ctrlX FLOW HS linear motion system, the ctrlX FLOW 6D contactless transport system, and an FTS conveyor with a Kassow 7-axis collaborative robot. Payload capacities range from three to 400 kg for different EV manufacturing steps.
- Automation controls: The ctrlX AUTOMATION portfolio, featuring ctrlX DRIVE, ctrlX CORE, cabinet-free solutions, and app-based functions on the Linux-based ctrlX OS, showing options for scalable EV production lines.
- Structural components: Next-generation EcoSafe protective guarding, aluminum framing for custom conveyance systems, and ergonomic manual workstations, with digital design and simulation in MTpro software.
Together, these solutions demonstrate approaches to streamlining EV battery and component manufacturing to support the growing demand for electrification.
