Company Synopsis
BST is the leading full-range supplier of web-guiding and quality assurance systems for roll-to-roll processing industries to include LI battery production. With over 60 years of experience in roll-to-roll industries, BST systems ensure high quality production, and make a significant contribution to higher production speeds resulting in sustainable increases in productivity.
Our inspection systems help battery cell production via high-speed camera technology that can identify, classify, and record defective material in process. During production of anode/cathode material, we can find defects such as: Agglomerates, Delamination, Voids, Wrinkles, Smears, and Pinholes.
Our web guiding technologies provide precise, high-resolution guiding of anode and cathode foils through coating, slitting, laminating, etc. Our high-precision guides can work in tandem with our camera systems to maintain very high tolerances throughout various production steps. We work with battery manufacturers and machine builders throughout the world and our mission is to save operations money while assuring quality.
