The necessary stage of power battery automation -- flexibility PACK production line

From the lithium battery monomer batteries to automation module to PACK in the whole process of production line, assembly line automation is decided to product quality and production efficiency of the key factors.

At present, the domestic battery just the beginning of the module of automation, due to the battery PACK standard is not unified, in PACK link automated manufacturing is almost a blank, in order to achieve further promote the efficiency of production and cost down, must promote the application of automated production equipment.

"Because of the power battery have different standard, flexible PACK production line is to realize the automation of power battery module production period."Shenzhen universal ShengWang technology co., LTD. (hereinafter referred to as: general ShengWang) fifth division deputy Jidong Zhao said in an interview with OFweek lithium power grid, power battery mass manufacturing of the module PACK automation production line in such aspects as product performance, production efficiency higher requirements are put forward.But the standard is not unified, PACK in the link of automation.

In fact, the automation of power battery integrated business generally contain module and PACK full automatic, semi-automatic assembly line, automation equipment integration, information acquisition and transmission hardware and software management system (MES) unmanned workshop.Previously, high-end equipment generally provided by the United States and Germany, Japan and South Korea.However, with the increase of experience and ability of the integrated automation, the domestic many lithium electricity equipment companies are also beginning to in power battery automation equipment to make integration domain and a place.

As a collection of new technology and manufacturing process of non-standard automation equipment research and development, manufacturing, and service in one of the state-level high-tech enterprises, general ShengWang main business direction is polishing equipment industry, mainly for the mobile phone supply chain provides intelligent equipment solutions.

"PACK automation equipment market, the industry needs to have fresh blood to speed the change".Jidong Zhao said, the company has always been one of the world's largest mobile phone manufacturer provide intelligent equipment manufacturing and new technology solutions, especially in all kinds of polishing process automation equipment, visual and testing equipment, 3 d surface hot bending glass molding & sweep light & testing equipment has accumulated profound experience.

"Cooperation with the international line enterprises gene is the biggest advantage of ShengWang."Jidong Zhao, general ShengWang from last year began to cut into the PACK automation equipment, after is the international famous brand of form a complete set of manufacturing, the manufacturing management system of the company is the highest international standards, and the management system on the PACK is the biggest advantage of automation equipment manufacturing field.

At present,Lithium battery manufacturerThe PACK production line also has some problems, main show is automation rate is low, gave birth to a single product, low capacity, artificial product switch, delivery cycle is long, intelligent production line is low, the product quality is not stable, etc.

, Jidong Zhao pointed out that the module PACK the development trend of automatic production line for high automation rate, product diversification, high tempo high percent of pass, automatic switch products, product technology innovation, delivery cycle short, intelligent production line information, etc.

Among car makers on the market at present due to the different requirements, so almost none of the module and production process is the same, it also puts forward more requirements on automatic production line.Jidong Zhao believes that good automatic production line in addition to meet the hardware configuration and technical requirements mentioned above also need to focus on compatibility and "the whole line rhythm".


ShengWang's PACK flexible production line equipment (local)

We have learned, at present, general ShengWang PACK automation product line covers the cylindrical, soft package, square, and other mainstream power battery PACK assembly line, its latest PACK automatic assembly line can achieve the goal of 20 PPM.Is currently the biggest motivation for a domestic shipments battery enterprises do supporting, are expected to be rolled off the production line at the end of may.

The problem of automation in power battery PACK, ShengWang's solution is flexible assembly technology.

"Flexible assembly technology can solve the present power battery PACK of standard automation problems."In Jidong Zhao's view, combining the robot visual guide, automatic laser welding penetration welding, high tempo, complete test system, and database tracing system of flexible automatic production line can be multiple specifications of products such as the most suitable PACK automation solution.
