The final steps in lithium-ion battery manufacturing, known as cell finishing, are critical as they directly influence the batteries' performance and longevity. In this phase, each cell undergoes activation, aging, classification, and quality control to meet stringent safety and efficiency standards.

Attention to detail is key in these processes. Cells require careful charging, discharging, and aging in specialized environments. The complexity is further increased by the necessity of safely storing hundreds of thousands of cells, each characterized by unique data and quality metrics crucial for consistent battery quality and reliability.
