Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the development of science and technology, batteries are widely used in various electronic products and the automotive industry. Batteries are mainly composed of cells and shells. Among them, the cell is the most important component of the battery and is the carrier of energy conversion, while the shell can protect the cell from the influence of the external environment and extend the service life of the cell. At the same time, the aluminum shell can also prevent electrolyte leakage and ensure the safe use of the cell. In industrial manufacturing, batteries are manufactured through processes such as cell shelling, spot welding, electrolyte injection, and sealing. Among them, cell shelling refers to packaging the finished cell into an aluminum shell to facilitate the addition of electrolyte and protect the cell structure.
