E-mobility has not only established itself in the automotive sector, but is now also being used in appliances for the home, trade and professional areas such as gardening and forestry work.
Batteries that offer the longest possible working life are needed everywhere. For this reason, a manufacturer of home, garden and craft equipment has decided to produce the batteries itself, as they make up a significant part of the value chain. Batteries, whether they are large in automobiles or small in handy appliances, pose certain risks to operators. Therefore, packaging with electrical insulation is of utmost importance. Refoil has developed a fully automated system that applies insulating films in 10-second cycles, ensuring a precise fit and wrinkle-free packaging. The application process is monitored by four cameras, which enable 100% inspection of the parts. This is extremely important for the subsequent work steps, as faulty parts at the end of the process chain can mean the end of the entire unit.
