Unveiling the Cornerstone of New Energy Battery Safety and Performance - Cell Charge-Discharge Testing
As the core carrier for energy storage and conversion, batteries have deeply penetrated key fields such as consumer electronics, electric vehicles, and large-scale energy storage systems, becoming a core force driving the transformation of the energy structure. Cells, as the smallest functional unit of batteries, their performance, quality, and safety directly determine the overall performance of the entire battery system.
Therefore, conducting a comprehensive performance "check-up" on cells and identifying potential safety hazards in advance are crucial prerequisites for ensuring the stable and efficient operation of cells in various complex application scenarios - and thus the cell charge-discharge testing system has emerged. By accurately simulating various charge-discharge scenarios of cells in practical applications, this system can not only accurately obtain core performance parameters such as capacity, internal resistance, and cycle life but also provide core data support for cell design optimization, quality control, and safety assessment.

From the front-end links of cell R&D and production to the back-end links of application and retirement recycling, the charge-discharge testing system can meet the core needs of different fields through "precision testing + data support":
Accelerate R&D Innovation and Shorten the Technology Iteration Cycle
In the cell R&D stage, the charge-discharge testing system can accurately simulate actual working conditions such as different charge-discharge rates, temperature environments, and cycle times, providing comprehensive and high-precision data support for R&D personnel. By analyzing the test data, R&D teams can quickly screen out the optimal design schemes, optimize material formulas and production processes, effectively shorten the R&D cycle, reduce R&D costs, and help new high-performance cells be put into use faster.
Strictly Control Production Quality and Ensure Product Consistency
During the cell production process, affected by factors such as raw material fluctuations and process complexity, even products from the same production line may have performance deviations. The charge-discharge testing system can conduct full-parameter testing on each cell. Through strict screening and grading, it ensures that the performance of the cells leaving the factory fully meets the standards, significantly improving the overall product quality and stability. At the same time, based on the test data, enterprises can quickly locate the root causes of problems in the production process, adjust process parameters in a timely manner, reduce the defect rate, and improve production efficiency.
Strengthen Safety Assessment and Avoid Application Risks
Safety is the primary prerequisite for cell applications. Whether it is the power supply for electric vehicles during high-speed driving or the long-term charge-discharge of energy storage power stations, once a cell has a safety problem, it may lead to serious consequences. The charge-discharge testing system comprehensively evaluates the safety performance of cells by simulating extreme working conditions such as overcharge, over-discharge, short circuit, and high temperature, and identifies potential hazards in design or manufacturing in advance. Based on the test results, enterprises can make targeted improvements to product design and production processes, enhance the cell safety level from the source, and provide protection for downstream applications.
Facilitate Echelon Utilization and Promote Sustainable Industrial Development
With the expansion of the battery industry scale, the environmental protection treatment and resource recycling of retired batteries have become industry pain points. The charge-discharge testing system can conduct accurate performance evaluation on retired cells to determine their remaining use value: for cells whose performance still meets the standards, they can be guided to scenarios with lower performance requirements such as low-speed electric vehicles and distributed energy storage to realize echelon utilization, extend the cell lifecycle, and reduce resource waste; at the same time, the detailed data provided by the system also provides a scientific basis for the subsequent recycling of cell materials, helping to build a green closed loop of "production - use - recycling".
