Comau continues its participation in the renewed EU Flex

Industrial automation products and systems developer Comau has renewed its commitment to the EU's Flexible Battery Dismantling (Flex-BD) project for the second year. Flex-BD is a robotized system that automates the entire process of dismantling worn-out electric batteries using a highly flexible, repeatable, and standardizable process.Comau – a member of Stellantis – estimates that the EU could easily have over 1 million discarded batteries to be reused by 2030. Having validated the proof-of-concept, the company has expanded the scope to include second life repurposing of automotive batteries, anticipating a growing market demand for businesses to reduce waste and optimize the reuse of raw materials contained within battery packs.
