Now, having validated the proof-of-concept, Comau has expanded the scope to include second life repurposing of automotive batteries. In doing so, Comau, in collaboration with other partners within the EU EIT Manufacturing community, is taking an important step towards greater sustainability within eMobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Comau estimates, based on the predicted electric battery production volumes within Europe over the next several years, that the EU could easily have over 1 million discarded batteries to be reused by 2030. To this end, <strong>Comau is helping anticipate what it believes will be a growing market demand for powerful electric battery recycling and repurposing solutions<\/strong>. In tandem, it will enable businesses to reduce waste and optimize the reuse of raw materials contained within battery packs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#0046ad;font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">Efficient and sustainable recovery of battery modules<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Flex-BD represents a significant improvement to manual handling processes that often include repetitive and heavy tasks in addition to contact with potentially harmful substances. It therefore <strong>makes the recovery of battery modules and their components more efficient and sustainable<\/strong> while having a positive impact on workers\u2019 health and safety. With second-life battery repurposing, on the other hand, the fully automated manipulation of low-charge batteries minimizes risks to both operators and the dismantling equipment. Unlike the materials recovery and recycling process, in which the battery is completely discharged and destroyed, second-life battery repurposing is done while maintaining a low but active battery charge.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.comau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Flex-BD_Final-1024x860.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-53912\" width=\"400\" height=\"364\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The way the Flex-BD cell works is as intuitive as it is innovative. One by one, battery packs are introduced into the specialized cell where a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.comau.com\/en\/our-offer\/products-and-solutions\/robot-team\/nj-450-2-7\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">high-payload Comau NJ industrial robot<\/a> automatically executes its path and changes its end-effectors based on the required application. In a typical recycling application, for example, the robot unscrews the battery cover, changes grippers to remove the cover, re-attaches the screwdriver to unscrew the modules and then using its gripper moves the pieces to a dedicated storage area. What\u2019s more, <strong>Flex-BD is designed around a highly flexible programming approach<\/strong> based on a reduced use of codes, state-of-the-art environmental perception techniques and the robot\u2019s reactive capacity, the entire dismantling cycle is defined through CAD. The use of <em>LowCode <\/em>programming also allows operators to quickly and easily redefine the cycle with no need to reprogram the robot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comau\u2019s efforts to advance green energy deployment extend beyond its expertise in automated manufacturing systems<\/strong> for batteries, electrical motors and drive units, competencies that are key to enabling the mass production of electric vehicles.&nbsp; At the same time, the company is addressing several key technical and development aspects of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.comau.com\/en\/our-offer\/systems\/battery-manufacturing-and-assembly\/electromobility\/battery-manufacturing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">automation process for battery cell manufacturing<\/a>, including process design and assembly of rechargeable cells, as well as the use of renewable energy and second-life strategies for automotive batteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#0046ad;font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">Expanding smart automation solutions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\" style=\"font-size:16px;font-style:normal;font-weight:100\"><em>\u201cOur work with the Flex-BD project leverages Comau\u2019s long standing automation expertise in the development of flexible, scalable and sustainable processes.
