Franziska Schulze Bockeloh

As a research associate in the »Digitalization of Battery Cell Manufacturing« group, I have been working since 2023 on data-driven production optimization and the integration of digital technologies into manufacturing processes. This includes, among other things, the development of predictive quality models aimed at reducing inspection efforts and improving quality assurance. These approaches make a significant contribution to enhancing efficiency and ensuring quality in battery cell production.
