The invention relates to the technical field of batteries, and particularly discloses a tab welding method and a tab welding device. The tab welding method comprises the following steps of providing a roll core, obliquely placing the roll core, and stacking a plurality of layers of tabs of the roll core on a welding table; and welding the stacked tabs to enable the welded tabs to form first parts and second parts at angles, wherein the second parts are located between the first parts and the roll core. According to the tab welding method, the friction force and the pressing movement distance when the tab on the upper layer is welded and pressed down can be reduced, the defect that the tab on the upper layer is torn due to excessive displacement can be overcome, the problems that the tabs and a cover plate are not firmly connected after welding, even insufficient welding and the like are solved, therefore, the risks that the internal resistance of a battery is abnormal or the tabs are disconnected from the cover plate is avoided, the fracture defect and the untight attachment defect of the tabs can be reduced, a connecting piece is not needed, an additional process and the weight of the battery are prevented form being increased, and the effective volume utilization rate and the energy density of the battery are improved.
