New Energy Industry
Lithium battery busbars are important conductive components in electric vehicle (EV) battery packs and other energy storage systems. Their manufacturing process requires consistent material feeding, accurate positioning, and careful handling of metal strips to support reliable stamping quality.
For manufacturers processing aluminum and copper coils, an appropriately configured coil feeding system helps prepare the material before it enters the stamping press. The equipment must straighten the strip, maintain stable feeding, and minimize the risk of surface damage during material handling.
To address these production requirements, YouYi Precision provides a customized lithium battery busbar stamping solution integrating a 2 in 1 decoiler straightener with an NC servo roll feeder. The system combines coil unwinding, strip straightening, and controlled feeding to support automated stamping of battery busbars and related electrical components.
The solution is designed for applications that require compact equipment integration, adjustable feeding parameters, and careful handling of aluminum and copper strip materials.
Equipment configuration: 2-in-1 decoiler straightener + NC servo roll feeder + stamping press.
In battery busbar manufacturing, the quality of the incoming strip and the stability of the feeding process can affect subsequent stamping operations. Before selecting the coil processing equipment, manufacturers need to consider material thickness, strip width, surface condition, feeding accuracy, and the operating requirements of the stamping press.
For this application, the main requirements included:
Stable coil handling: Support continuous unwinding of aluminum or copper strip material.
Reliable straightening: Reduce coil curvature before the material enters the stamping die.
Accurate servo feeding: Control the feeding length and positioning according to the stamping process.
Surface protection: Reduce the risk of scratches and marks during strip handling.
Compact equipment layout: Integrate decoiling and straightening functions to simplify the production line arrangement.
Based on these requirements, YouYi Precision configured a 2-in-1 decoiler straightener and an NC servo roll feeder for the busbar stamping application.
The coil feeding system consists of two main units, each performing a different role in preparing and delivering the strip material.
The 2-in-1 decoiler straightener combines coil unwinding and strip straightening in one machine. Compared with arranging a separate decoiler and straightener, this integrated configuration can reduce equipment footprint and simplify the material path.
Key features include:
Integrated decoiling and straightening: Combines two material preparation functions in one unit.
Photoelectric loop control: Monitors the material loop to coordinate unwinding with downstream feeding demand.
Flip-top straightening head: Provides easier access to the straightening rollers for cleaning, inspection, and maintenance.
Compact layout: Helps reduce the space required for coil preparation equipment.
Material surface care: Supports careful strip handling when the rollers, guides, and operating parameters are correctly configured for the material.
For aluminum and copper strip applications, roller condition, roller cleanliness, material alignment, and contact pressure should be checked during setup. These factors help reduce the risk of surface marks during production.

The NC servo roll feeder advances the prepared strip into the stamping die according to the programmed feed length. Servo control allows operators to adjust feeding parameters to suit different materials, dies, and production requirements.
The configured system uses a high-precision servo motor and an HMI touch screen for parameter setting.
Key features include:
Feeding accuracy up to ±0.02 mm: The stated figure refers to feeding accuracy under specified operating conditions, not the dimensional accuracy of the finished stamped part.
Adjustable feed length and speed: Allows feeding parameters to be matched to the stamping process.
HMI touch screen operation: Simplifies parameter entry and adjustment.
Repeatable feeding control: Supports consistent material positioning when the equipment is correctly installed, configured, and maintained.
Flexible production setup: Helps operators adjust feeding settings when changing materials or stamping jobs.
Actual feeding accuracy depends on the material, feed length, equipment setup, operating speed, and measurement conditions. Final part accuracy also depends on the stamping die, press, and process parameters.
The following are the material ranges provided for this application. Final equipment selection should be confirmed against the actual coil specifications and production requirements.
| Parameter | Specified Range |
|---|---|
| Material thickness | 0.5–6.0 mm |
| Material width | 50–300 mm |
| Typical materials | Aluminum strip and copper strip |
| Main functions | Decoiling, straightening, and servo feeding |
| Target application | Lithium battery busbar and electrical component stamping |
Important: The listed thickness range is relatively broad for a single setup. Confirm that the actual material thickness, strength, coil weight, strip width, and surface requirements fall within the selected machine's rated capacity before using these figures as guaranteed specifications.
The equipment prepares the coil material and delivers it to the stamping press in a controlled sequence.
Coil loading and unwinding: The decoiler supports the coil and releases strip material as production requires.
Strip straightening: The leveling section corrects coil curvature to prepare the strip for downstream feeding.
Loop monitoring: The photoelectric control system monitors the material loop and helps coordinate unwinding with feeding demand.
Servo feeding: The NC servo roll feeder advances the strip according to the programmed feed length.
Press stamping: The prepared strip enters the stamping die for the required busbar or electrical component forming operation.
The stamping press and die must be matched to the product design and material specifications. The coil feeding equipment supports material preparation and positioning; it does not independently determine the final stamped part's dimensional accuracy.
This coil processing and feeding configuration can be considered for automated stamping applications involving:
Lithium battery busbars
Electrical connectors and conductive components
Aluminum strip stamping
Copper strip stamping
Other precision metal components used in electrical and energy-related equipment
Suitability depends on the component design, material properties, strip dimensions, required tolerances, and stamping process. For applications involving delicate or finished metal surfaces, the roller condition and material contact points should be evaluated before production.
Combining decoiling and straightening in one machine can simplify the equipment layout and reduce the space needed for material preparation.
The NC servo roll feeder allows operators to set feed length and speed for the stamping process, supporting repeatable material positioning.
The flip-top straightening head provides more convenient access to the rollers for inspection and cleaning, helping operators maintain the material-contact surfaces.
Photoelectric loop control helps coordinate the material supply between the decoiler straightener and the downstream feeding process.
The equipment can be configured according to material thickness, width, coil weight, surface requirements, and the operating conditions of the stamping press.
The 2 in 1 decoiler straightener combined with an NC servo feeder provides an efficient and reliable coil feeding solution for modern automated stamping lines.
