Abstract
A pre-lithiation apparatus that pre-lithiates a negative electrode structure having a first surface on which a negative electrode is disposed to produce a negative electrode unit of a battery, the apparatus includes a first roll rotatable to wind or unwind the negative electrode structure before the pre-lithiation is performed, a second roll installed to be spaced apart from the first roll and rotatable to wind and collect the negative electrode structure, on which the pre-lithiation is performed, and a lithium roll crossing a direction in which the negative electrode structure is transferred from the first roll to the second roll to come into contact with at least one of a first surface and a second surface of the negative electrode structure while being transferred from the first roll to the second roll. The lithium roll includes a lithium foil and an elastic member.
