At EXOM Engineering, we support our customers throughout the entire development and industrialization process of laser welding solutions for electric battery modules and stacks, from initial testing to the implementation of fully autonomous production systems.
From validation to industrial process
We offer a step-by-step approach that reduces risks and accelerates decision-making:
- Sample testing (1 to 3 days)
- Material evaluation (Cu, Al, Ni, dissimilar combinations)
- Optimization of laser welding parameters
Quality analysis (electrical resistance, mechanical strength, metallographic cross-section)
- Busbar-to-cell welding (2 days to 1 week)
- Development of robust processes for critical joints
- Minimization of heat input to protect the cell
Control of process repeatability and stability
- Functional prototypes (around 1 week)
- Manufacturing of modules or subassemblies
Validation of design and process under real conditions
- Short series and pre-series (depending on volume)
- Controlled scaling towards production
- Fine-tuning of parameters and tooling
- Preparation for industrialization
Focused on the final machine
Our goal is not only to validate the process, but to transfer it into an autonomous industrial solution — what we internally refer to as “dressing the validated process”:
- Development of turnkey laser welding systems
- Integration of:
- Scanning optics (scanner) with machine vision
- Process control
- Automation and robotics
- Systems prepared for:
- Repeatable production
- Traceability
- In-line quality control
Customer benefits
- Reduced technological risk
- Faster time-to-market
- A single partner from R&D to production
- Guaranteed process scalability
EXOM Engineering differentiator
Thanks to our expertise in integrating laser sources, optics, and control systems, we transform complex processes into robust, repeatable, and production-ready solutions. Most importantly, we allow the customer to decide how far we accompany them along the journey.
