Abstract: A system for consolidating tabs of a battery cell includes a tab guide configured to receive a plurality of tabs extending from electrode layers of a cell stack, the cell stack configured to be disposed in a housing to form the battery cell, the tab guide including opposing guide components configured to be positioned between the cell stack and a weld plate, the tab guide configured to receive the plurality of tabs between the opposing guide components. The system also includes an actuator configured to be operated to move one or more of the opposing guide components to deform a length of one or more tabs between the cell stack and the weld plate.
