The number of vehicles with electric drives is continuously increasing and is making a significant contribution to the decarbonisation of road traffic. However, at the end of the battery's life cycle, the question of how to recycle the materials inside the battery raises its head. Automation not only enables battery cells to be produced economically, but also allows the recycling processes to be precisely monitored and controlled. Valuable materials can be efficiently recovered from the batteries by using automated systems and then be reused. This guarantees a more sustainable and environmentally friendly value chain.

Producing batteries is an extremely sensitive process. Each phase of the production environment, whether processing, transport or quality inspection, should therefore be clean.
