How BMW Electric Batteries Are Made for Electric Cars? (Mega Factories Video)

- An electric-vehicle battery (EVB) (also known as a traction battery) is a battery used to power the electric motors of a battery electric vehicle (BEV) or hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). These batteries are usually rechargeable (secondary) batteries, and are typically lithium-ion batteries. These batteries are specifically designed for a high ampere-hour (or kilowatt-hour) capacity.
Batteries for electric vehicles are characterized by their relatively high power-to-weight ratio, specific energy and energy density; smaller, lighter batteries are desirable because they reduce the weight of the vehicle and therefore improve its performance. Compared to liquid fuels, most current battery technologies have much lower specific energy, and this often impacts the maximum all-electric range of the vehicles.
The most common battery type in modern electric vehicles are lithium-ion and lithium polymer, because of their high energy density compared to their weight. Other types of rechargeable batteries used in electric vehicles include lead-acid, nickel-cadmium, nickel-metal hydride, and, less commonly, zinc-air, and sodium nickel chloride batteries. The amount of electricity stored in batteries is measured in ampere hours or in coulombs, with the total energy often measured in kilowatt-hours.

It's so much fun to see the prosess from the very start 👏 I'm working the other way (i actuall disassemble these!)
😂😂
Plasma cleaning was so cool !
Thankyou for such informative videos
awesome battery production
I couldn't see the Thermo interface material applied. Do they have it?
Taping was satisfying
starts off with already built cells (the only part we care about)
It´ll be great to see what´s inside the cells, what materials are used, what are the safety tests done and how tighten proof is also done.
that's the secret
I want to see the mining for metals used in batteries process....you know what I mean....that process is of great importance.....for more people to know
My eyes r shinning when I watch at those machine's. Beautiful 21st century solution's
Could you add a video of the assembly of the orange and black wiring between the batteries inside the box? :)
Thank you for your feedback. Maybe we have that in our next video coming Friday ^_^
Cell assembly section i liked most
What is the OEE at one of these facilities?
The final testing is my favorite.
Thank you for your feedback !
the stacking process where 18 single cells become a unit. someone know how many seconds it takes for one whole battery pack to get constructed(incl. EoL-testing)?
how much is initial investment needed if we have to setup this plant including all the machines,iscar robots,parts,fixtures all so ,i need not exact but nearly value
Fascinating
Did you show the actual batteries being inserted into the cell
The jigsaw puzzles which we all solved right from our childhood days are manufactured with some great engineering behind them. Watch this exciting and informative video to learn more!

O.M.G!
Can do bmw for battery bmw 2013 suv with chevorty Ev electric motor 4 power wheel?
Wonder where the big chunk of earth is gone after mining for the precious metals?
Where shall we find the production site and various other information like suppliers and battery types, variants are produced in that particular site for a specific brand like BMW etc ? Thanks in advance ?
I'd like to know as well. Suppliers for battery cells like that tho are usually LG or Panasonic (sometimes BOSCH). Variants of the finished battery system (more/less range/energy) are caused by using more or less packs within the housing. For specific data about the cell itself you'd be more succesful asking the supplier directly I think. Check out Tesla's battery production (cell 4680) if you're interested tho, bc they are using a different type of cell for assembly.
How are batteries held in battery housing
Lithium Ion
Spot weld I liked
It’s not spot welding. It is voltage measurement. The cell contacting system was laser welded before
Found the electric cars loud full work naturally green saw
Yes biiiiig yes
:D
I wonder how safely it was?
"have you ever wonder how batteries are made?" duh! that's why i m here, right?
I hope you learned a thing or two :)
3:52 how progressive to refer to the mechanics as "Battery assembly beings"
How much resources does it take to make one battery?
I dont care. I use 21 Tonnes of Oil instead of 15 Kilo Lithium. Thats environmentally friendly and uses less resources.
No wonder why those battery so expensive...😮
Ohhh m g
Which part did you like the most?
how much does it cost average to build such factory?
Your whole life payment
@LyricDrama
About $75,000
Old style battery packs...
So this is what's making the M50 weigh 5000 pounds...
SJW:
How many meal breaks they get? Minimum wage? Union? Medical cover? Holiday pay?
COMPANY:
They're robots!
SJW:
Dont you dare label them!
Idiot - look at bmw brilliance in Shenyang. It’s the biggest employer in the province of Liaoning.
there is nothing in this video on how they fill the elements (lithium -ion) in batteries.,so this videos is incomplete.
I wonder how many people work there
... ...
Nothing but robots not To many jobs
Do you think robots are taking away our jobs?
made in China？
Cells made in China ?.
BMW??? haha ... All the workers are Chinese. Warning signs - Chinese
