1.Battery Electrode Slitter Brief Introduction to Equipment Functions and Principles

This die cutting machine equipment is mainly used for the forming of positive and negative electrode sheets in the lithium battery lamination process (suitable for continuous coating process). The equipment achieves the advanced control technology and optimized design of the current industry, with advantages such as reasonable and compact structure, high rigidity and strength; during operation, the operator places the rolled material on the feeding rack of the machine, threads the material according to the process flow, and the machine will automatically unwind. The gravity mechanism realizes tension and buffering functions during the feeding process, and the mechanical arm controlled by the servo system feeds the material to the cutting table at a fixed length. After the mold on the cutting table forms the product, it is automatically conveyed to the conveying table, where it undergoes CCD size detection and surface dust removal treatment. Finally, the defective electrode sheets are automatically removed, and the qualified electrode sheets are collected into the finished product box.

2.Product Molding Machine Process Flow

1.Place the material roll onto the air expansion shaft for automatic unwinding. 2.Automatic material edge alignment and tension control.
3.Conveyor belt reciprocates to support the material (material on top, conveyor belt underneath).
4.The robotic arm clamps the material and feeds it together with the conveyor belt,achieving rapid feeding according to the system-set length.
5.Product die-cutting and forming (the die completes forming in one stroke according to the customer’s product size).
6.The conveyor belt delivers the formed product to the pick-up worktable for inspection.
7.The robotic arm transports the product from the pick-up worktable to the dust removal station (excess material falls into the waste bin along with the conveyor belt).
8.Dust removal from both the front and back sides of the product.
9. The dust-removed product is transferred by the robotic arm into the lifting box.
10. 10.Completion of a single work cycle.

2.Die Cutting Machine Equipment Working Principle and Features:

NoWorking Principle and Functional Description
1This machine is used for forming, dust removal, and automatic collection of coiled electrode sheets (continuous coating, single-side tab).
2Equipment workflow: Electrode sheet unwinding → Unwind edge guide → Splicing platform → Tension buffer → Primary electrode sheet forming (die-cutting) → Conveyor belt traction → CCD inspection → Double-sided dust removal → Robotic arm unloading.
31. Uses a reciprocating conveyor belt to support the material (electrode sheet on top,

belt below), with a robotic arm clamping for feeding, effectively ensuring feeding accuracy.

2. Uses laser-cut dies for punching, forming the product in one step with minimal error, ensuring cutting precision and improving yield.

3. CCD inspection uses a high-resolution area scan camera to photograph the electrode sheet, calculating its dimensions (width, length, tab-to-edge distance).
