theion, an instrumental sulfur crystal battery company, and camLine, an Elisa IndustriesQ company and well-known supplier of Manufacturing Execution System (MES), have announced their partnership to deploy AI-driven solutions that will speed up the development of cutting-edge battery technologies globally and transform the way battery manufacturers move from lab-scale to mass production.
Accelerate Time to Market With AI in Battery Manufacturing
The partnership combines theion’s innovative approach to sulfur crystal battery technology with camLine’s state-of-the-art AI technologies, the Battery Lifetime Predictor and Root Cause Analyzer.
With a 99.8% forecast accuracy, camLine’s Battery Lifetime Predictor has recently shortened the company’s R&D testing periods from 42 days to just 15 hours.
Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that AI-Driven Root Cause Analyzer helps with early anomaly detection in the production process, allowing for quicker corrective steps and less downtime. theion’s development cycles can now be significantly accelerated thanks to this discovery.
A Comprehensive MES Solution for Scaling Production
Scaling lithium-sulfur battery technology from lab-scale research and development to full-scale production is another goal of the collaboration. A smooth transition to mass production is ensured by camLine’s AI-powered MES suite, which offers real-time data collecting with an effective track and trace, predictive analytics, and automated decision-making capabilities.
Key Comments
“As a key player in the battery industry, I am proud that our AI-driven solutions have effectively met the needs of theion, reducing their testing times by an impressive 98%. This significant improvement enhances their overall production efficiency in battery manufacturing, allowing them to stay competitive as a leader in the industry,” said Mir?o Krsteski, Key Account Manager of camLine.
“After comparing different AI tool solutions for our development process, we identified camLine as a powerful partner that will save us a lot of time while maintaining high quality,” said Martin Schaupp, CTO of theion.
