EV-battery engineers wrestle with defects they can’t see until a pack fails. The Engineer’s Guide to Battery Defects lays out how industrial CT surfaces those threats in minutes. As the paper states, “Industrial CT scanning allows battery engineers to visualize and analyze specific issues related to anodes and cathodes that are otherwise challenging to detect”.
Real-world scans show that “precise 3D imaging reveals the extent and distribution of the anode overhang, enabling…identification of potential areas of concern”, and they spotlight tab-weld voids that can trigger thermal runaway.
With this guide, you’ll come away with practical workflows for R&D, supplier validation, and in-line QA; numeric benchmarks for anode-cathode overhang, porosity, and weld integrity; and a clear blueprint for ISO 26262 evidence packs. The paper explains why regulators insist on catching “delamination, misalignment, or contamination … before they lead to failures in the field” and shows how Voyager dashboards turn those CT measurements into trend data your team can act on.
