From curing to filling: preventing quality losses through controlled humidity, temperature, and acid concentration in lead-acid battery manufacturing

In this 20-minute technical webinar, Vaisala experts Maria Nyman and Bea Siuro walk through key stages of the lead-acid battery production process and explain how to stabilize these critical processes, eliminate manual sampling, and improve overall battery yield. 

The session is in 2 sections: 
- the curing process, and the condensation challenge 
- acid formation & filling, and the sampling challenge 

Why you should attend: 

• Learn how to prevent condensation-related measurement failures and data loss in extreme process conditions: Discover why standard sensors fail in high-humidity curing chambers (90–98%rh) and how Vaisala's technology excels in these conditions.
• Fully utilize chambers and reduce production costs: Hear strategies to lower energy consumption and reduce downtime, natural gas, and water usage by switching to non-drift, maintenance-free measurement tools.
• Eliminate manual sampling, enable automation: Learn how to replace hazardous and slow manual acid checks with inline Polaris refractometers that provide real-time concentration data.
• Maximize battery lifespan: Understand the direct correlation between precise acid density (30–38%) and the electrochemical performance of the final battery. Measure sulfuric acid concentration inline and in real time across dilution, formation, and filling. 
• Optimize plate quality, lead formation, and load permeation with fast, reliable measurements.
