True front-end process control depends on precision, data, and an honest understanding of process limits. This episode looks at why that foundation matters for scalable coating.

Slurry rheology and slot die design are tightly coupled, yet often evaluated in isolation. This episode breaks down how that disconnect shows up as coating instability.

Electrode coating is often treated as a downstream step, but in practice it frequently limits scale, yield, and consistency in battery manufacturing. This episode explores why.

Lithium-ion battery manufacturing involves a series of tightly coupled process steps, from electrode coating to cell assembly. This article provides a practical overview of how electrodes are made and how they ultimately become battery cells.

Many electrode coating problems are treated at the point where defects appear—but the real causes often originate much earlier in the process. This article explains why coating issues are frequently misdiagnosed and how a systems-level view leads to more effective solutions.

A perspective on why coating challenges repeat across industries — and how upstream decisions shape downstream manufacturing outcomes.
