Innovative German Engineering

Jagenberg Converting Solutions (JCS) is the expert for the roll-to-roll processes needed in battery electrode production. We specialize in turnkey concepts and equipment from a single source — all the way from coating and drying to the slitting process through to wet and dry calendering.

The Reliability of an International Group

With a core team consisting of more than 80 coating and converting industry experts we are able to address complex battery turnkey projects holistically and with the reliability of the longstanding worldwide Jagenberg Group. If required, we integrate its joint competence and complement it with additional strategic partners that enable us to provide large-scale solutions for modern giga factory projects.

 


Calendering

Many years of experience in the design and manufacture of calendering systems enables JCS to supply high-quality mechanical engineering combined with high process reliability in the field of electrode calendering. In a closed loop process, calender adjustment with an accuracy of 1µm, combined with maximum loads of up to 4000 N/mm in widths of up to 1200mm can be realized. The overall concept of the entire system is adapted to the respective customer requirements. This includes, for example, a wide variety of preheating systems, such as IR or laser systems. The overall concept is completed with efficient data management to ensure high-quality data output in conjunction with various measuring systems.

 


US-Made Technology Leadership

Faustel is the North American technology leader in custom roll-to-roll equipment solutions. Our know-how and flexible design for electrode, fuel cell, and battery separator production relies on more than 65 years of experience in precision machinery for coating and winding.

Hands-on Versatility

For single or double pass systems according to clean room or dry room standards, Faustel contributes modular components that can be configured to the specific process requirements our customers demand. Faustel‘s process and technology expertise includes proficiency integrating convection drying, lasers, near infrared, gauging systems, as well as coating delivery systems, that enable us to provide large-scale solutions for modern giga factory projects.
