Accuracy, precision and reliability are the keys to meeting rising battery demand

When it comes to ensuring the quality and safety of batteries, the accuracy and reliability of key production equipment such as flatness, tension and thickness measurement devices is key.

Now that battery-based electric power has become more efficient, less costly and more reliable, the global electronic vehicle (EV) market is booming.

That’s good news for us, and for our planet.

The market for EVs of all types – including power storage - is booming so much that battery manufacturers are currently facing considerable challenges to keep pace with demand. Manufacturing facilities worldwide are already working flat out, but even with more giga-size factories coming online, supply is expected to remain very tight for the remainder of 2023, and demand is forecast to continue to outstrip supply until at least the end of the decade.

To keep pace with demand, battery manufacturers must optimize their production lines and reduce downtime to levels that until recently were unattainable.
