Technical Field

[0002] With the continuous development of the new energy battery industry, the requirements for battery safety and quality detection are getting higher and higher, and the quality of battery pole pieces is of utmost importance. At present, for the detection of edge defects and size control of battery pole pieces, the common methods are manual detection with a microscope and detection with some semi-automatic imaging equipment. The defects of the pole piece may appear in the cutting plane direction and the plane direction, and at the same time, the pole ear side or multiple sides need to be detected. The current detection process is as follows: manual sampling on the production line. When multiple sides need to be detected, samples at different detection positions need to be taken separately, cut into small pole pieces, placed and clamped in a fixture; manually move the sample, find and adjust the focus in the microscope to be clear; slowly move the sample, manually use the microscope to find defects, and manually record the defect data; change the direction of the sample and repeat the above operations; change the detection side, such as the ceramic area or the pole ear area, and repeat the detection process again; replace the imaging equipment for size measurement, and re-select a complete pole piece for size detection.
