In battery production, process stability is becoming an increasingly important factor in competitiveness. Cell manufacturers are under pressure to ramp up production capacity quickly, reduce energy consumption, and ensure consistently high product quality. This makes it especially worthwhile for German and European gigafactories to take a closer look at one particularly energy-intensive process step: cathode drying.
Cathode drying can account for up to 45% of energy consumption in the dry room, making it a significant opportunity for optimization. By measuring moisture precisely and controlling the process reliably, manufacturers can use energy more efficiently, avoid overdrying, and secure product quality.
In this free 30-minute on-demand webinar in German, Vaisala expert David Dlugay explains how battery manufacturers can better monitor and optimize cathode drying. The webinar addresses typical challenges in cell production: very high temperatures, aggressive chemicals, ultra-dry environments, and the risk of costly production interruptions.
You will learn:
- why dew point is a suitable measurement parameter for controlling and optimizing drying
- how measurement accuracy can be ensured even at high temperatures and in the presence of aggressive chemicals
- which sensor strategies and best practices help minimize production downtime and improve equipment availability
The webinar is designed for engineers, process owners, and operations managers in battery manufacturing, dry room operation, and industrial energy management.
