Samsung SDI is looking to add 3D CT scanning to its battery production. It will be based on 3D computed tomography (CT) inspection equipment. The company has introduced 3D CT technology, which has been limited to research and development (R&D) or sampling, to the production site.
According to the Elec report, the inspection will be done in-line and the company has already adopted the system at its factory in Goed, Hungary. The equipment was supplied by SFA, and apart from Samsung, LG Energy Solution has already adopted the method in its battery production.
Samsung SDI is also looking to build a new factory near the existing one at Goed. The new factory is being called Stage 2; another second factory at Goed is being called Stage 1.
The second factory Goed is also expected to get the 3D CT scanning system right away. Previously, X-ray equipment was more commonly used to inspect the insides of finished batteries.
