      abstract     = {The introduction of the tabless electrode design for
                      lithium-ion battery cells by Tesla in 2020 and its
                      successful industrialisation for the 2022 Model Y marked a
                      significant breakthrough in the realm of cylindrical cell
                      designs for batteries. This innovative approach allowed for
                      larger cell designs while maintaining optimal thermal
                      performance through active cooling on the system level.
                      While prior research has focused on the advantages of this
                      tabless design in terms of thermal management, this work
                      explores a distinct benefit during the electrode
                      manufacturing process. Traditionally, cylindrical battery
                      cells utilize an electrode coating method that leaves gaps
                      on the electrode surface to accommodate tab welding.
                      Consequently, the coating machine operates in an
                      intermittent coating mode, leading to a substantial
                      reduction in achievable coating speed. In contrast, the
                      tabless electrode design enables the continuous deposition
                      of the active material by the coating machine. This
                      advancement results in a remarkable increase in the coating
                      speed, exceeding 60 $\%,$ which more than compensates for
                      the additional costs associated with laser cutting the edge
                      of the tabless electrode. This paper demonstrates how the
                      adoption of tabless electrodes in the manufacturing process
                      leads to a considerable cost reduction, from 2.029 to 1.698
                      €/kWh, while maintaining all other factors constant.
                      Although this cost reduction may appear modest concerning
                      the total cell costs, the cumulative savings at the
                      giga-factory scale become significant, making this
                      advancement economically viable and impactful.},
