Redefining battery production

The future is battery-powered

E-mobility is the future of the automotive industry. However, its success depends largely on the heart of the electric-powered vehicle: the battery. Not only performance is crucial, but also availability in times of high demand. Battery cells also play an increasingly central role in the energy sector as storage media for electricity from renewable sources. Advancing the production of battery cells in Europe means becoming independent of external markets and establishing secure and sustainable supply chains. Manufacturers must be competitive on an international level and build up their production with a focus on efficiency and flexibility. The key: Industry 4.0.

Innovative software for successful battery production

A key challenge for European manufacturers is keeping up with the rapid pace of the international battery market. Production must start up quickly and respond flexibly to changing needs or customer requirements. The often high reject rates also need to be reduced significantly. Bosch Connected Industry therefore uses Bosch’s extensive manufacturing expertise to provide solutions for battery production – from the initial ramp-up of the line to tracking the cells beyond the plant boundaries. To do this, we use innovative technologies such as digital twins. We not only supply the software, but also advise you individually throughout your digitalization journey.

Through the ramp-up phase in record time – thanks to Nexeed Automation

The ramp-up phase, whether for a new line or an entire plant, is always critical. Can the schedule be met? When will production start running as planned? Nexeed Automation sets the course for the quickest and smoothest possible start-up right from the planning and projecting stage. With the control-independent development environment Control plus, configuration during commissioning is simple and intuitive. The software also accompanies the machine throughout its entire lifecycle. During operation, employees benefit from numerous apps at machine level, such as error display, parts search, and cycle time or status monitoring.

Setting the course for the digital product passport

Bosch Semantic Stack

Setting the course for the digital product passport – based on Bosch Semantic Stack

Bosch Semantic Stack focuses on the product – not only during production, but throughout its entire lifecycle, all the way to recycling. For batteries, this full traceability will become even more important in the future. As of 2026, the EU is planning a mandatory digital product passport for all new batteries in vehicles, industrial applications, and stationary storage systems. Bosch Semantic Stack provides companies with all the digital tools they need to easily implement this and many further data-driven projects. Innovative technologies such as digital twins and knowledge graphs form the basis.
