## Summary

The UK Battery Industrialisation Centre is seeking Slitter Equipment for their Flexible Industrialisation Line (FIL) in England, United Kingdom. The procurement process is in the planning stage with an engagement end date set for December 8, 2022. The equipment must meet specific requirements for slitting lithium-ion battery electrodes and operating in a clean and dry environment.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specializing in industrial machinery interested in supplying a Slitting system tailored for lithium-ion battery electrodes. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to participate. The equipment must offer a modular solution and comply with UKCA standards, providing a potential market for innovative slitting technologies applicable to battery electrodes.

## Notice

UKBIC have a requirement for the provision of a flexible Slitting system to fit into a clean and dryroom. This system would need to be representative and scale-able to a larger system * Slitting machine needs to be capable of slitting all common li-ion electrode thicknesses. * Machines in the range of 320mm to 640mm foil width will be considered. Minimum slit width down to 50mm. * Trim edges down to 10mm, with collection of trim for disposal. Maximum of 8 slit widths. * The slitting width accuracy must be better than +/- 0.2 mm. * The slitter must collect the dust parts from slitting the coated foil. * The slitter will be operated in a clean and dry environment. Equipment to be capable of operating in a -70degC dewpoint environment. * Please provide previous experience history of slitting li-ion or other electrodes. One Slitting machine must be procured - if budget allows, a second Slitting machine may be procured to separate anode and cathode Slitting process to avoid cross-contamination. The tenderer is encouraged to provide a quotation to suggest what savings could be made if a second slitter was ordered at the same time as the first. The equipment must offer modular solution, so equipment can be easily reconfigured or decommissioned in the future. Bidders are encouraged to offer alternate slitting systems applicable to battery electrodes e.g laser slitting. All equipment to provide UKCA conformity.
