With the continuous development of battery technology, various types of batteries and chemical terms have emerged, leaving many people with limited understanding of these terms. In order to help purchasers gain a better understanding of basic battery knowledge and choose the right battery for their needs, let’s explore some basic battery categories and their characteristics. Battery categories can be divided into two major categories: primary batteries and secondary batteries , sometimes also referred to as disposable batteries and rechargeable batteries. The primary battery refers to a non-rechargeable disposable battery that cannot be used after the battery energy is exhausted. The conventional standards include A , AA , AAA , AAAA , C , D and small , flat , disc shape, etc. They are mainly used in low-power devices that are used occasionally. They are relatively inexpensive, have a long shelf life, and are easy to maintain. Common primary batteries…

A starter battery is a battery specially used for starting, lighting, ignition and power supply of vehicles, ships, etc. Currently, most starter batteries on the market rely on conventional lead-acid technology. With the continuous development of lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery technology, LiFePO4 batteries with higher energy density, longer lifespan, improved efficiency, and faster charging speeds have begun to gradually replace lead-acid batteries, becoming the preferred battery technology for starter batteries. Next, let’s talk to you in detail about why lithium iron phosphate batteries can be used as starter batteries. Long life and high utilization rate As we all know , the service life of traditional lead-acid batteries is very short , with an average battery cycle life of 300-500 times , while the cycle life of lithium iron phosphate batteries is more than 3000 times, which is several times that of traditional lead-acid batteries.Especially when applied as starter batteries…

Lifepo4 batteries are widely used in UPS, starting power supplies, AGVs, medical equipment and energy storage systems due to their high energy density, long cycle life and good safety performance. This is inseparable from its production technology and processes. Next, I will introduce to you the production technology and process of lithium iron phosphate batteries, so that everyone can have a better understanding of lithium iron phosphate batteries. The main production process of lithium iron phosphate batteries can be divided into three stages: the electrode preparation stage , cell molding stage, and the capacitance forming and packaging stage . Among them, The first section includes equipment such as vacuum mixers, coating machines, and roller presses.The second section includes equipment such as winding machines, lamination stacking machines, and liquid injection machines.The third section includes equipment such as forming machines, capacity grading equipment, and warehousing and logistics automation. The First stage: electrode…

With the continuous development of Internet technology, online shopping has become the norm in people’s lives, and various large-scale efficient distribution centers and warehouses are also increasing. In order to improve output and efficiency,autonomous mobile robots (AMR) and automatic guided vehicles (AGV) came into being to make warehouses and distribution centers work faster and reduce labor costs. However, the operation of AMR and AGV requires reliable and long-lasting power supply. Among many batteries, lithium iron phosphate battery has become the best choice for AMR and AGV. Why? Let‘s find out next! What are AGV and AMR? AGV stands for Automatic Guided Vehicle, and it is designed to transport heavy objects. It can take the form of a trolley, forklift, or other mobile vehicles. AGVs are powered by batteries and utilize radio signals or sensors for navigation. They operate autonomously along predetermined paths and no manual operation is required. AMR stands…

In the process of using of batteries, have you found that when some batteries are used under high load, the battery life is much reduced than the theoretical value? If you happen to be using a lead-acid battery, then part of the reason for this is the so-called Proctor’s law. Next, let’s learn what Puckett’s law is and what its impact is on batteries? What is Puckett’s law? Peukert’s law was proposed by German scientist Wilhelm Peukert in 1897. It states that the capacity of rechargeable lead-acid batteries changes at different discharge rates. As the discharge rate increases, the available capacity of the battery will decrease. According to the actual situation of the battery, it can be expressed by the following formula: t = H(C/IH) k , where H is the rated discharge time (h) , C is the rated capacity at the discharge rate (Ah), and I is the…

We often see the words of “with intelligent BMS” in lithium iron phosphate battery packs description. What is the “BMS”? What role does it play in the lithium iron phosphate battery pack? Next, let us discuss the BMS of the lithium iron phosphate battery pack. What is BMS? BMS is a set of electronics that monitors and manages the performance of all the batteries. The battery management system (BMS) of a lithium iron phosphate battery pack typically includes functions such as calculating the remaining battery power, monitoring battery temperature, and detecting battery safety and health status. It plays a crucial role in preventing or avoiding abnormal conditions such as over-charge, over-discharge, over-temperature, overcurrent, and short circuit. Due to its integral role in ensuring the safe and efficient operation of the battery pack, the BMS is often referred to as the “brain” of the battery pack. What are the main functions…

In modern society, the reliability of electricity supply is vital to many industries and households. When power interruptions or fluctuations occur, equipment may be damaged, data may be lost, or the production process may be interrupted. To solve these problems, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems are introduced, and UPS battery is an important part of the system. What is the UPS battery? The UPS battery is one of the core components of the UPS system. They are rechargeable batteries, typically using technologies such as lithium-ion, nickel-cadmium, or lead-acid. UPS battery can store energy by converting electrical energy into chemical energy and release the stored energy when power is interrupted to provide continuous power supply. The capacity of the UPS battery determines the backup power time that the UPS system can provide. A larger-capacity UPS battery can support the operation of the equipment for a long time, while a smaller-capacity UPS…

In the battery industry , we can often hear professional terms such as battery cell , battery module, and battery pack. Some customers tend to confuse and other customers think that these three are the same concept. In order to make everyone better differences, let me share with you the relation between these three! In fact, battery cell, battery module and battery pack are different stages of battery application. The structure of a lithium battery generally is battery cell -module- battery pack. The battery cell is the basic unit of the battery system. The process of assembling the battery cells into a group is called “PACK”. It can be a single battery or a battery modules of Series and parallel battery , etc. In order to make everyone a deeper understanding, let’s take our PLB’s battery as an example to introduce the battery cell, battery module and battery pack in…
