The manufacture of electrodes places the highest demands on the machinery and the associated process. In the field of electrode coating, the main focus is on slot die coating and the downstream drying process. During the subsequent calendaring process, the desired porosity is set by means of compaction. Any remaining solvent is removed in the final post-drying process. The so-called roll-to-roll process is gaining ground here as an alternative to vacuum drying. This presentation deals with selected detailed topics in the 3 areas mentioned above. In the area of coating, the slot-die process and the drying process will be highlighted. In the area of calendaring, attention will be paid to disruptive factors during calendaring and a newly developed residual moisture measurement principle will be presented for the post-drying process to detect the smallest residual solution quantities of 300ppm and less.
