Digital twin in battery productionFaster to more powerful batteries
The battery factory of the future is increasingly working digitally: simulations accompany the development of new cells, and intelligent sensors monitor production in real time. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics ITWM are developing methods that virtually map manufacturing processes and measure important parameters during production. The experts will be presenting their solutions for more stable production processes and more powerful batteries at the Battery Show Europe 2026.
BEST is used to simulate ion transport and charge distribution in lithium-ion cells. Taking into account the macroscopic cell format, the electrode microstructure, the material properties and the operating conditions, this allows not only the prediction of cell behavior, but also a detailed analysis at the microscopic level. © Fraunhofer ITWM
