When it comes to making interconnections in the battery module, laser welding is faster than traditional wire bonding methods. With laser technology, the busbar can be welded directly to the cells instead of connected via wires, diminishing by half the number of welds in the module.

Good surface preparation is essential to guarantee good bonding quality. Several surface treatments exist to prepare surfaces. Some of them remove contaminants, some of them modify the roughness level, and others do both, like laser texturing.
