Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lithium battery production technology, and in particular to an integrated detection device for lithium electrode sheet density and thinning thickness. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of lithium-ion batteries, the coating surface density is a key indicator that directly affects the energy density and cycle life of the battery. Adding a thinning zone at the edge of the electrode during the coating process can effectively increase the surface area of ​​the active material in the battery electrode, reduce the impact of edge effects on the battery electrode, improve the electrochemical performance of the electrode, and thus improve the energy density and cycle life of the battery. Therefore, controlling the electrode surface density and the edge thinning zone is crucial.

[0003] In actual production, X-ray density measuring instruments are used to detect the surface density of the electrode coating area. However, due to the large radiation area of ​​X-rays, only the surface density of large areas can be detected, and it is impossible to accurately measure small areas such as thinned areas. Moreover, existing equipment occupies a lot of space and has high manufacturing costs. At the same time, because laser thickness gauges use a full-stroke back-and-forth scanning method, the detection frequency is low, the amount of data in the thinned area is relatively small, and it is difficult to improve the measurement accuracy.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design an integrated detection device for lithium electrode sheet density and thinning thickness to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
