Stuttgart Conference on Automotive Production (SCAP2022) N2 - In case of electric vehicles (EV) powered by lithium ion traction batteries (LIB), remanufacturing processes nbecome increasingly important due to their rising market share and valuable raw materials. LIB can account for up to 40% of the total EV cost. Often, only a small portion of the cells are significantly degraded when the usable battery capacity falls below 80%, which is currently considered the standard end-of-life criterion. However, in order to enable efficient remanufacturing, novel battery design principles are required. This paper discusses the requirements, opportunities and challenges of future remanufacturing processes of LIBs down to the cell level using a battery system of a commercial vehicle as an example. It gives an overview of the current state-of-the-art manufacturing processes of battery systems and shows the developed overall remanufacturing process including condition assessment, disassembly and reassembly. Subsequently, requirements on future designs are discussed. The state-of-the-art of EV batteries is evaluated based on these requirements to determine where incompatible connections such as welded contacts or adhesive joints conflict with remanufacturing design principles.
