The German Battery X-ray Alliance: VCbattery and Exacom - an exciting partnership in EV battery inspection

Tackling the Next-Level Challenges in EV Battery Cell Production – Together!

 

As the EV industry rapidly scales, battery cell manufacturers in Europe and North America are under increasing pressure to deliver higher quality, greater safety, and faster throughput - while keeping costs under control. Key challenges include detecting safety-critical defects inline, improving yield rates, and ensuring full process traceability in an environment of growing regulatory and customer demands.

 

To address these demands, VCbattery (part of VCgroup) and Exacom (part of Viscom) are joining forces, utilizing a combined team of around 700 dedicated experts in industrial X-ray inspection.

💬 Hagen Berger (Exacom):
“We are combining our strengths to accelerate innovation, enhance customer engagement, and raise the bar for quality and safety in EV battery production. Across the full battery value chain—from cell to module to pack—we provide inspection solutions that are highly adaptable: stand-alone or fully integrated, sampling-based or 100% inline inspection. Our commitment is to support manufacturers with reliable defect detection, process optimization, and full traceability from lab to production line. This is how we enable smarter and safer energy storage, tailored for the fast-growing global EV market.”

💬 Bernhard Mürkens (VCbattery):
“VCbattery, as part of the VCgroup with approximately 300 employees, and Exacom, as part of Viscom with around 400 employees - united in one mission: advancing the future of battery inspection. Together, we form a global X-ray technology powerhouse focused on solving key industry challenges, including the inline detection of safety-critical defects in EV battery cell inspection using 2D and 3D imaging, yield improvement, and full process traceability. Leveraging our joint expertise in high-speed data acquisition, reconstruction, and intelligent analysis, we are shaping the next generation of inspection solutions that meet the growing demands of performance, safety, and scalability in the EV battery market.”

🤝 With this joint initiative, we are not just addressing today’s needs—but also preparing to solve the next wave of challenges facing the EV battery industry. Our united teams are ready to deliver the inspection technologies that will power the future of clean mobility.
