Zusammenfassung:Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods for welding components of battery modules. In particular, but not exclusively, the disclosure relates to methods of welding busbars of vehicle battery modules to the terminals of cylindrical cells. The method comprises positioning the tab of a busbar in contact with the terminal and welding the tab to the terminal by controlling a laser welding system to produce a weld on a portion of the tab that contacts the terminal. The weld has a weld shape comprising a substantially straight portion and the method measures a depth of the weld in the straight portion during the welding of the tab to the terminal.
