📅 November 10–12, 2026
📍 ADM Montréal 2026 – Montréal, Québec, Canada
Jenike & Johanson will be participating in ADM Montréal 2026, where our Senior Engineer, Michael Nwaeri, will present a technical session on the role of bulk solids handling in battery cell manufacturing.
Presentation
Overcoming Powder Handling Pitfalls in Battery Cell Manufacturing
Battery manufacturing relies on the reliable handling of powders and granules throughout cathode and anode production. However, poorly designed solids handling systems can lead to flow stoppages, production bottlenecks, and material segregation that ultimately affect cell quality and performance.
In this presentation, Michael Nwaeri will discuss common powder handling challenges encountered during battery cell manufacturing and share practical engineering approaches for improving material flow, maintaining blend uniformity, and increasing process reliability.
What You’ll Learn
- How poor powder handling can limit battery production throughput
- Common causes of material segregation and nonuniformity
- Design considerations for hoppers, feeders, bins, and conveying equipment
- Practical strategies to improve flow reliability and product consistency
If you’ll be attending ADM Montréal 2026, we’d be happy to discuss your powder handling challenges and how engineering-based solutions can improve process performance.
