STUTTGART, Germany, Aug. 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Exyte, a global leader in the design, engineering and delivery of facilities for high-tech industries officially inaugurated a high-tech dryroom laboratory, which is a key component for customers in the Li-ion battery industry. The new facility will allow Exyte to test and evaluate key components for dryrooms under various operating conditions in order to design and build dryrooms for customers in the most cost-effective way possible. This latest build will boost Exyte's capabilities in expanding its battery business as the demand for Li-ion manufacturing capacity is expected to more than double by 2023, due to growth drivers such as e-mobility and stationary storage systems.
Exyte has long-standing experience and expertise in controlled environments. Based on its extensive know-how, Exyte filed various patents for 'advanced dryroom systems'. In order to test and demonstrate these features, Exyte engineered and built a dryroom laboratory located at Exyte's premises in Shanghai. The dryroom conditions are specified to a dew point as low as -60°C, which is key to ensuring enhanced battery quality. The grand opening of the facility took place on July 12, 2019.
Dr. Klaus Eberhardt, Technology Manager at Exyte, says: "Operational kickoff for the dryroom laboratory marks an important milestone for Exyte's battery business. We are working with many of the leading battery manufacturers, who have expressed strong interest in seeing the dryroom and discussing Exyte's advanced solutions for their future battery factories."
The facility will contribute to optimizing both, capital and operational expenditures for dryrooms within the battery cell production.
