Fully automated battery module production

- ElringKlinger, one of the world's leading system partners to the automotive industry, can produce around 300,000 battery modules for use in electric vehicles, as well as for other areas of application, each year on the modular and fully automated battery module production line at its production site in Thale, Germany. The company is one of the first players on the German market to invest in a large-volume, highly automated module production line. "The modular design was particularly important to us in order to be able to react fast and easily to our customer requirements.", says Mark Laderer, Director of Production Battery Technology & E-Mobility at ElringKlinger. "Our aim is to be able to serve both smaller customers with a finalized product and established companies with an individual solution - the KUKA line enables us to do both."

as cool as this video is, I imagine the automation techs who had to teach and test (multiple times) those robots each step must have been in tears by the end.
Absolutely mind blowing line grats to both Elring and Kuka.
Nice one. Here's a challenge! Design a production line for cylindrical or pouch cells. Prismatic module assembly is quite easy to automate and fairly straightforward.
Great. Now we can have millions of electric vehicles for the price of fully automated production goods. Happy for all of us !
The music is intense :-)
Great point!
Can we have one without the music? So we can hear just the factory rather than the distracting ZUB?
No Because that's the sound the Kukas makes when it's operating.
You can certainly hear the robots at 1:40 and 3:10 ... classic kuka
Finally a worthy video from KUKA. Took you long enough, but it's a really good one, really impressive!
Its a beautiful machine, Bosch(?) pallet line with siemens, trumph and festo- plus kuka...nice looking fixtures and dress ... exceptional machine tool.
Simply amazing!
This seems overengineered. I get that production should be flexible and adaptable but there was so much overhead here to do fairly simple tasks
Battery production environment is hazardous for human
@@usmanAli-do6xf i was not refering to the security i was refering to the equipment looking like michael bay transformers
@MyPonyIsLit flexible to make what? Toothpaste tubes? The tool is overengineered. You dont make a tool that does everything because tools that do everything are more expensive, need more maintainance, more complexity, amd are generally bad overall in their performamce. There is a line between flexible and overgeneralozed and this crosses it ...
Isn't it the goal for a robot to replace human for simple task?
In car factory this goes to simply weld a bolt to a piece (wich can be already space consuming) to up to 14-15 piece together (at least in my factory).
Since battery are standardized this can work for 10-15 years without having to change anything. So i think the time it took to designed it was absolutely worthed it in the end.
@@clowsead thats not how welding works. A robotic arm is ideal for welding given welding often requires motion in 6 axis, not to mention the process of programming a robot for welding is stupidly fast and simple. The welding tip is not over engineered it is a relatively simple tool for the job ...
I dont see how these compare.
EASY LIFE WHIT KUKA-MAZING
Seems like this could seriously help improve the safety of battery manufacturing.
"KUKA" just another word for "High Quality"
This is amazing, but I mainly was listening to the music and I think the music was made by your robots
Long lasting battery life~
Amazing !
Excellent concept and delivery.
Glad you think so!
Nice Video!
Impressive
Да, пара-тройка косяков заметна, но в целом, конечно, хорошо!

I think these robots are more like emulating how a human worker will do instead of stretching out what machines are capable to do. This is like using a robot arm to pour coke in the bottle, 1 per 30 secs. But a hardcore rotoray filler can do 30 per 1 sec.
The advent of EV certainly creates new opportunity for other advance field to flourish, such as industrial automation in the production of batteries.
... good - better - battery montage by KUKA.
very cool
nice production engineering. What transport system is used thats seen in the first sequence used for the cells?
Cool 👍
K U K A TOOOOOOOOOP. ❤i love mode in germany
Kuka =Midea=china.
@@DanielGustavoEchavarri 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
China since 2016
Nice video
Great
Machines making machines!
Batteries are machines?
Nothing I can understand. Some parts moving here and there. So simply watching🤔
LoL...
it's actually easier than you think
Nice
Yes, Germany is taking over the world with Technology. :D
Mh KUKA is Chinese since 2016!
@@ReinhardSchuster Just chinese money, it is a german company

And it should stay that way. A German company.
Good afternoon. Can you tell us how much the line shown in the video costs approximately?
Great Video, great music. What's the track ID?
How about a fully automated kuka robot production?
Great company now Chinese midea Corp owned.
How many different variants on production lines are currently planned?
Not sure if this answers your question. One challenge of battery manufacturing is that there is a wide variation of batteries that may be required, and that battery technology is also changing quickly. In terms of robot variants, we would match the robot variant to the application, so it's hard to give a definitive answer without looking closely at the whole automation system and plant layout.
Does Nigel Stanford do all your music?
I don't know but it'd be a good partnership, they give him robots for music videos, he gives them music for robot videos. Win-win!
Is there any explanation of the process in voice-over?
Would you mind if I share you clip video on my company web page and facebook?

Hello,
We're looking to set up an Electronic Vehicles'' Production Line in India.
Can you help us?
Thank You

Sick,kuka,bosch/item, maybe ifm/balluf, maybe trumph laser
fully automated but the first thing i see is a person
that person was there to yell: "Dey Tuk Yar Jabs!"
How much would this cost?
We are rolling out online sales country by country. Register at my.kuka.com/shop. Also, we'd be glad to put you in touch with our sales team. Please write us a PM at facebook.com/KUKAGlobal/ or socialmedia-global@kuka.com.
1 bazillion dollars
But let’s see, I would estimate each robot at 30k, about 12 robots would be 36x12=360k. Let’s say conveyors and other stuff are like 1.7 million. So 2 million total for parts. For a 6 month project at 40 hours a week for 30 engineers at 120/hour, that’s (6months)x(4weeks/month)x(40hrs/week)x(30people)x(120/hour) = 3.5 million. So total for everything is 3.5+2 = 5.5 million
KUKA---now a Chinese firm
Сколько стоит такая линия ?
Orange intelligence. Nice pun! Someone should show him the oranges of it!

Why was there a Human right at the beginning.?....KUKA... replace the Human with a KUKA Robot...Please.!
Exactly.
Kuka: Fully Automated!
Step one; hire a kid to manually load every cell.
At some point you have to reference the reality of people still driving trucks and unpacking materials for the line.
Had to mute this, that music get's very boring very fast. Also the video is too slow paced, the camera angles are horrible I can't make out what's going on half the time.
Overly complicated.
now kuka a Chinese company
Just chinese money, it is a german company

a small delay between one phase and another phase or some how due to earth quake etc if battery package drop from its line then i wonder what will happen these dumb robots may burn something else with the lasers and weld something else which could mess up entire assembly line . just my guess
Meh Nigel Stanford used them better.
He made an awesome music video with some KUKA KR AGILUS robots. Here's a link to his channel: czcams.com/users/JohnStanfordMusic But making electric car batteries is perhaps equally exciting. 😉
Extremely slow,, 😴
The complete idiocy. It seems that the first parts of the lines are made in order to sell the line at a higher price. Lish robots would sell more suckers. I understand electric welding, no one is better than a robot. But damn it. Sticker insulator, and then peeling it off. And then turning over - and this individual robots ?? What kind of fuckers ?? Crap full, shit this line. Not thought out at all.
It sells more robots. A lot of that should have been special purpose machinery, not off the shelf robots with semi-custom end effectors. Shows like How It's Made sometimes give glimpses into what high throughput manufacturing really is.
Nice
