Agreement on the supply contract for electrode slurry manufacturing machinery to FIB Corporation's lithium-ion battery production equipment.

Bühler K.K.
We are pleased to announce that the Bühler Group has reached an agreement with FIB Company (Italy) regarding the supply of large-scale production equipment for lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries at their Teverola 2 plant. Our company plans to deliver a total of four continuous mixing lines for electrode slurry manufacturing, with two lines each for anodes and cathodes, expected to be installed by the end of 2025 and production to begin in 2026. These systems leverage our co-rotating twin-screw extrusion technology, consolidating multiple processes into a single continuous operation unit. This results in up to 25% lower energy consumption compared to traditional batch mixing methods and allows for operation with fewer operators. Additionally, the QuaLiB inline quality control system, equipped with sensors, data analytics, and automation features, enables precise monitoring of the manufacturing process, contributing to improvements in yield and cost.
