Company Description
AM Batteries, headquartered in Chelmsford, MA, focuses on higher throughput dry-electrode manufacturing for lithium-ion batteries. Compared to the conventional slurry-casting approach, AM Batteries’ technology completely eliminates solvent recovery and electrode drying, which can reduce the energy consumption of a battery plant by more than 40% and save up to 40% in capital expenditures in electrode manufacturing, while reducing the plant’s carbon footprint by nearly 40%. Beyond this, AM Batteries’ technology paves the way for higher energy density, faster charging, and lower-cost lithium-ion batteries. AM Batteries’ future-proof manufacturing technology can be leveraged for multiple types of battery-electrode fabrication.
