Ontology-based Traceability System for Interoperable Data Acquisition in Battery Cell Manufacturing

Abstract

In order to support the transformation of energy and transportation sectors, costs and environmental impacts of battery cell need to be reduced. Data acquisition plays a major role in generating transparency within the complex system of battery manufacturing and enables its improvement. This paper presents a methodology for the development of an ontology-based traceability system of data acquired along the battery cell manufacturing chain. This system provides interrelations between data, data sources, and corresponding entities enabling an interoperable data acquisition. A data basis generated with this ontology-based traceability system supports and eases data analytics applications in battery cell manufacturing.
