Abstract: A sealing apparatus is disclosed. In some implementations, the sealing apparatus includes a process chamber having an internal space, a cell loading portion configured to load a plurality of battery cells and enter the internal space of the process chamber, a plurality of sealing units disposed in the internal space of the process chamber, the plurality of sealing units configured to partially seal the battery cells, respectively, and a driving portion configured to move the plurality of sealing units such that the plurality of sealing units come into contact with the plurality of battery cells, respectively.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to apparatus for measuring the thickness of a sealing portion of a secondary battery, and the apparatus includes a non-contact measuring part including a pair of sensors disposed to face each other, and a controller detecting thickness information of the sealing part of the secondary battery, the information being collected by the non-contact measuring part, wherein the non-contact measuring part is able to measure the thickness in a non-contact manner while interposing the sealing part of the secondary battery between the pair of sensors. Furthermore, the disclosure includes a method for measuring the thickness of the sealing part of the secondary battery by using the above-described pair of sensors.

Abstract: A case opening apparatus is disclosed. In some implementations, the case opening apparatus may include a suction portion including a first suction portion configured to suction an upper portion of a case of a battery cell being in a folded state and a second suction portion configured to suction a lower portion of the case, and a rotation driving portion configured to open the inside of the case by rotating the first suction portion.
