Batteries for automobile industry and energy industry

M+W Zander receives order from European Batteries for new lithium ion cell factory in FinnlandDer plant engineer M+W Zander from the Finnish battery manufacturer European Batteries Oy an order for planning and building of the process areas of a new battery factory received. The factory with location in Varkaus, Finland, will produce lithium ions battery cells for the automobile industry, the energy industry and other industrial operational areas. The quantity production is to start in the coming year. The planned yearly capacity is with 300 MWh. The order for M+W Zander covers planning and building of pure and drying areas for sensitive process steps within production. In addition � the assembly � joining mentioned of electrodes and separators belong as well as the electrolyte filling of the cells. In order to ensure a high quality and achievement of the Akkus, a constantly low air humidity is necessary. This is ensured by high speed adsorption dehumidifying devices and special, humidity-impermeable winding and floor schemes as well as air locks. In the factory in Varkaus the newest battery technology becomes� Employment come. It became of European Batteries in close co-operation with the US technology partner K2 Energy Solutions Inc. developed. Both enterprises co-operate with the development from world-wide leading heavy-duty batteries closely. As a partner company of European Batteries sells the company Oy Finnish Electric Vehicle Technologies (FEVT) the lithium ions batteries. FEVT supplies with also the patented battery management and � to control system, which steers coupled with one another individual battery cells and which employment makes possible as heavy-duty batteries in the different ranges of application. In April M+W Zander an innovative concept for planning and building of lithium ion battery factories had presented this yearly. It links the goal of substantial reductions of costs by optimized integration of the production engineering into the building infrastructure with highest requirements at security and quality. The individual steps for the quantity production of the battery cells are linked thereby modular with one another. Into the concept the experiences of many years of M+W Zander with similar developments flowed into other industries, where by the improvement of the production efficiency the unit prices could be lowered step by step.
