What are the charging pile instructions?

Instructions for Charging Pile-V1.3.0: Power Output Mode: Can be switched between intelligent mode and priority mode. In intelligent mode, the charging pile power is equally distributed between the two vehicle connectors.

How do you Weld a battery pack?

“We see a lot of laser welding and ultrasonic wedge bonding for the larger packs,” says Boyle at Amada Weld Tech. “If the packs or the overall volume are smaller, then resistance welding is often used. Micro-TIG comes up for specialised battery packs with low-volume production.

Why is welding important for EV battery systems?

Welding is a vitally important family of joining techniques for EV battery systems. A large battery might need thousands of individual connections, joining the positive and negative terminals of cells together in combinations of parallel and series blocks to form modules and packs of the required voltage and capacity.

Why do welds need a laser head?

When the welds required are long seams that have to go around corners, for example when sealing the lids on the cans of prismatic cells, conventional solutions such as moving the laser head or the work along a gantry, or using scanning mirrors to direct the beam run into problems.

Why are battery contacts so difficult to weld?

At the highest level, reliability and process speed are the main engineering challenges in welding battery contacts and structures, he notes. Carr concurs, and cites cost and customers’ desire to use the latest materials, such as grades of aluminium that are super-light but hard to weld and seal shut.

Can laser welding be used in EV battery production?

Of these, laser and ultrasonic welding processes dominate in EV battery manufacture – with laser welding the preferred solution for mass production – and continue to be improved and refined. “We see a lot of laser welding and ultrasonic wedge bonding for the larger packs,” says Boyle at Amada Weld Tech.
