Consumer Electronics (Page 4)

The integrity and reliability of joints in lithium-ion battery packs is critically important to manufacturers in industries ranging from automotive to consumer electronics to aerospace. If battery packs fail, it can result in more than just a faulty product -- it can actually be a threat to public safety. Many welding techniques are used to...

Electric vehicles and consumer electronics depend on high-capacity, highly efficient batteries, and the demand continues to rise. Critical to producing these batteries is the successful welding of foil-to-tab joints which are often made of dissimilar materials with dissimilar thicknesses. This process is complicated, and the failure of a single joint will compromise an entire battery...
