Product catalog summary
Introduction
Branson™ ultrasonic metal welding technology addresses the challenges in lithium-ion battery manufacturing by providing solutions that ensure consistency and reliability in bonding fragile battery foils. This technology is crucial for producing batteries with higher energy density, faster charging capabilities, and lighter weight.
Challenges in Battery Manufacturing
Manufacturers face the challenge of bonding an increasing number of fragile battery foils without causing tears or cracks, which could lead to cell or assembly failure. The demand for higher energy density and faster charging requires advanced welding solutions.
Branson Ultrasonic Metal Welding Solutions
Branson offers ultrasonic metal welding solutions that can bond over 100 thin-foil layers in next-generation batteries and join larger-diameter cables for faster charging. Key features include:
  • Consistent, repeatable welds on non-ferrous metals
  • Long-lasting, low-resistance connections
  • Solid-state, molecular-level bonding
  • Low energy consumption
  • No intermetallic compounds or corrosion
  • Precise, digital weld controls
  • Capability to join 100-plus thin foil or hybrid foil layers
  • Ability to weld thick bus bars and large cases
  • Rapid weld cycles
  • Weld data for quality and traceability
Applications
Branson welding solutions are applicable to various battery types, including cylindrical, prismatic, polymer pouch, and solid-state batteries.
Benefits of Ultrasonic Metal Welding
