Battery manufacturing alone already accounts for 10% of the company’s turnover in the automotive sector, and more than 500 Trumpf lasers have already been installed worldwide for this purpose. Indeed, the company’s lasers are proving suitable for the mass production of batteries, high-power electronic systems and electric drives.
Visitors to Advanced Engineering will learn about the latest Trumpf developments for e-mobility that range from lasers that can weld all the seams on an electric motor in just one minute, to its TruConnect solutions, which allow the entire production process to be digitised: from initial customer queries to invoicing, and from raw material ordering to finished product dispatch.
Mass production of any product, be it consumer-based or industrial, commonly involves marking for tracking and traceability, which is where Trumpf laser-marking solutions come into play. Whether the requirement is for digits, text or codes, the technology is non-contact and wear-free. At the show, Trumpf will be introducing a newcomer to its range, the TruMark Station 5000, which is suitable for marking mid-to-large batch sizes.
