Electrode joining method and electrode joining apparatus

Abstract:

An electrode joining method includes: an electrode sheet conveying step of conveying the cathode electrode sheet of a size enabling a plurality of cathode electrode layers to be acquired; an anomaly detecting step of detecting anomalies in the cathode electrode sheet; a specifying step of specifying a predetermined shape from an area excluding a location having an anomaly that was detected in the anomaly detecting step; a cutting step of cutting out the cathode electrode layer of the predetermined shape specified in the specifying step; and a step of joining the cathode electrode layer of the predetermined shape that was cut out to the PEM.
