Systematically understand battery principles, basic structure, and manufacturing process flow through hands-on experience.
The use of storage batteries, including electric vehicles (EVs), is rapidly expanding in various fields. However, much of battery technology education is lecture-based, and opportunities to actually experience the battery manufacturing process are limited.
This course aims to systematically understand the principles, basic structure, and manufacturing process flow of batteries by experiencing the manufacturing of small lithium-ion batteries in a practical training format.
By experiencing a series of processes firsthand, such as "making electrodes from material powder, assembling cells, and actually checking their operation," fragmented knowledge can be connected and understood as a "battery manufacturing flow." A major feature of this course is that participants can learn with a sense of reality why each process is necessary and where it affects performance and quality.
The course is structured to be easy for beginners in the battery field, such as new/young employees and those who have just transferred to battery-related departments. It can also be used as part of new employee training or transfer training within companies.
Instructors include former battery manufacturers (AIST contract employees) and researchers from the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, who will provide explanations and guidance in an easy-to-understand manner for beginners, with a focus on practical application.
Through this course, we aim for participants to acquire fundamental skills that will serve as a foundation for future specialized learning and practical understanding.
*This course is an introductory content for battery beginners. If you desire more advanced and specialized content, we also offer training programs combining practical training and lectures, totaling about 6-8 days, centered on battery manufacturing practical training. Please inquire for details.
