Abstrakt: Battery cell production is a key contributor to achieving a net‐zero future. A comprehensive understanding of the various process steps and their interdependencies is essential for speeding up the commercialization of newly developed materials and optimizing production processes. While several approaches have been employed to analyze and understand the complexity of the process chain and its interdependencies – ranging from expert‐ and simulation‐based to data‐driven – the latter holds significant potential for real‐time application. This is particularly relevant for inline process control and optimization. To streamline the development and implementation of data‐driven models, a holistic framework that encompasses all necessary steps – from identification of relevant parameters and generation of data to development of models – is imperative. This article aims to address this objective by presenting a comprehensive and systematic methodology, demonstrated for efficient cross‐process analysis in electrode manufacturing. Through the combined utilization of design of experiments methods, data‐driven models, and explainable machine learning methods, the interdependencies between production parameters and the physical, mechanical, and electrochemical characteristics of the electrodes were uncovered. These actionable insights are essential for enabling informed decision‐making, facilitating the selection of appropriate process parameters, and ultimately optimizing the production process.
