KUKA Industries has planned and set up the production system for the manufacture of battery modules and high-voltage batteries for use in electric vehicles. This involves individual battery cells being processed into modules and custom-tailored battery systems. The system to be delivered is based on KUKA standard cells, and features a high level of automation and a modular design, which allows for the integration of additional process modules.

The demands to be met in this sector are very high. In addition to reproducible quality of the highest level, vehicle manufacturers require a scalable automation solution that allows them to adapt to the growing demand, particularly in the production of battery modules.
