New Battery World 2025

SCHUNK presents flexible automation solutions for battery cell handling New Battery World in Munich is one of the most important networking events in the field of electromobility. SCHUNK was on site to ramp up cooperation and the exchange of information on future-oriented drive technology and to present flexible automation solutions.
New Battery World 2025 In the "Innovations in Cell-to-Pack and Cell-to-Body" panel discussion, Mathias Stach (Drees & Sommer SE), Lukas Buske (Plasmatreat GmbH), Marc Schweizer (fischer group), Jan Ewe (Murrelektronik GmbH) and Stefan Engelhardt (SCHUNK SE & Co. KG) discussed current trends and developments.

The mobility transition is in full swing. One of the biggest challenges is the production and recycling of battery cells. In order to responsibly advance the future of electromobility and the development of the battery industry in Europe, New Battery World brought together more than 600 participants and over 80 partners at Motorworld Munich on February 27 and 28. The congress offered in-depth insight into innovations and trends in battery technology, production and charging infrastructure. High-caliber keynotes, panel discussions and networking enabled exchange with leading experts in the industry. One special highlight was the tour of the BMW Group's prototype production facility.

SCHUNK RCG SCHUNK develops tailored solutions for the handling of cells during assembly to produce battery packs and for the final installation of the storage cells in the vehicle.

From the cell to the fully assembled battery pack

"The development of sustainable battery systems is progressing rapidly. This makes it all the more important that we work together to develop solutions that can be adapted flexibly and quickly to new development steps," says Stefan Engelhardt, Vice President Global Key Account Management & Business Development at SCHUNK. In the "Innovations in Cell-to-Pack and Cell-to-Body" panel discussion, he discussed current trends and the increasing relevance of sustainable processes for long-term success with Jan Ewe (Murrelektronik GmbH), Lukas Buske (Plasmatreat GmbH), Marc Schweizer (fischer group) and Mathias Stach (Drees & Sommer SE). "Thanks to a higher degree of automation and the use of artificial intelligence, our customers can use energy and resources more efficiently," summarizes Stefan Engelhardt. To this end, SCHUNK develops tailored solutions from the handling of cells when assembling battery packs to the final installation of the storage cells in the vehicle.

Simultaneous engineering

SCHUNK used the example of a fully automated round cell handling system and its digital twin to demonstrate how process steps can be accelerated right from the planning and commissioning stages. This solution, developed in partnership with ISG, enables efficient real-time system simulation and the direct derivation of models for the NVIDIA Omniverse. SCHUNK already offers component libraries and complete assemblies for creating virtual industrial worlds.
