Overview

Chemspeed's solution

The modular design enables significant efficiency increase combined with high quality and maximum ease of use. 

  • Design your automated laboratory
  • Navigate on the system with shuttles
  • Model, execute and control multiple workflows
  • Ensure conditioned atmosphere as required by means of tight enclosure
  • Dispense gravimetrically liquids, pastes and solids from small to large amounts in high accuracy
  • Formulate battery slurries (anode and cathode)
  • Measure and adjust rheology
  • Apply battery slurry via roll-to-roll coating followed by heat curing and calendering
  • Punch electrodes in different formats and assemble them in coin or pouch cells
  • Characterize conductivity, rechargibility and other battery properties
