US 2026/0018646 A1 · APPARATUS FOR AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SECONDARY BATTERY

Abstract

An apparatus for and method of manufacturing a secondary battery are provided. The apparatus for manufacturing a secondary battery includes an alignment box including an alignment space, a plurality of first electrode grippers disposed to be spaced apart from each other in an extension direction of a separator, on one side of the separator extending toward the alignment box, and supporting a first electrode, and a plurality of second electrode grippers disposed to face a gap between the plurality of first electrode grippers, on the other side of the separator, and supporting a second electrode. The plurality of first electrode grippers and the plurality of second electrode grippers are provided to move to be aligned in the alignment space while intersecting with the separator therebetween, so that the first electrode and the second electrode are alternately stacked with the separator therebetween in the alignment space.
