Dürr supplies eight lines for electrode coating to FIB S.p.A. in Teverola, Italy

Major Giga coating system order for Dürr

Bietigheim-Bissingen, January 8th, 2025 – Dürr Systems AG has received a significant order from Italian battery manufacturer FIB S.p.A, a Seri Industrial Group company. The major order was awarded in December and comprises the delivery of a giga-coating system consisting of four anode and four cathode lines as well as the associated calenders, slitters and solvent recovery systems. The order value is in the upper double-digit million-euro range.

The order is the result of a strategic intensification of activities in the field of battery production, which Dürr began in 2018 with the acquisition of the US company Megtec/Universal. With its coating, drying and solvent recovery systems, Megtec brought solutions for three key steps in lithium-ion battery production. In 2020, the partnership with the Japanese coating equipment manufacturer Techno Smart Corp. was established. The acquisition of Ingecal in 2023 brought a specialist in calendering technology into the company.

From January 2025, Dürr's coating business operates in the new Lithium-Ion Battery business unit. For the new business unit, the order from FIB is a significant success that reflects the strategic decisions taken in recent years. In times of global volatility, FIB S.p.A., a Seri Industrial Group company active in the production of lithium-iron-phosphate batteries, is investing in a competitive, technologically advanced battery production facility in Europe, using innovative, predominantly Western technology.

The equipment supplied by Dürr includes the tandem coater, a proven system that sequentially coats the foil on one side and then the other. Other sections include the webline, dryer, calender, slitter and solvent recovery for the anode and cathode areas. The plant capacity at full load is based on the FIB cell and capacity design and is expected to be 8 GWh/a.

The schedule for the two-phase project near Naples is tight, with installation to begin in the fall of 2025 and production to start in the course of 2026. "Particularly noteworthy is the short time from receipt of the order to the start of installation of the first lines in just 10 months – after all, the ink is only just dry," says Bernhard Bruhn, Vice President Global Business Unit Lithium-Ion Battery at Dürr.

  • In the tandem coater, one side of the foil is coated after the other.

  • Precise dosing and application are essential for high quality electrode coating (example image).

  • The scope of delivery for FIB S.p.A. also includes calendering (example image).
