Abstract

The present application provides a necking method, a necking apparatus, and a battery manufacturing device. The necking method is used for forming a necked portion on a shell with an open end. The necking method includes: forming an annular groove on the shell, where the annular groove extends in a circumferential direction of the shell; and expanding a width of the annular groove towards the open end to form the necked portion. The technical solution of the present application can effectively reduce deformation of the shell, ensure safety of an electrode assembly, and improve performance stability of a battery cell. Meanwhile, pre-necking the shell effectively reduce a risk of deformation resilience of the shell after the necked portion is formed, thereby improving machining precision and structural stability of the necked portion.
