This detailed Battery Inspection Checklist ensures battery performance and safety. This checklist, which includes both visual and technical inspections, assists in identifying difficulties with mounting, cables, electrolyte levels, & voltage to ensure proper battery function.
Last Fitment Date: Mention the date that the battery was last installed in the machine. The first level of inspection involves a thorough visual examination of the battery’s physical condition. This step checks for any mechanical or structural faults that could hinder performance.
X-ray inspection for cylindrical lithium-ion batteries X-ray inspection for prismatic/pouch lithium-ion batteries (winding type) X-ray inspection for prismatic/pouch lithium-ion batteries (stacking type) As the causes of LiB failures gradually become clearer, there is a growing demand to inspect more complex structures and find minute defects.
In this framework, non-destructive inspection methods play a fundamental role in assessing the condition of lithium-ion batteries, allowing for their thorough examination without causing any damage.
For example, the three most common battery shapes are "cylindrical", "square", and "pouch (laminated)". However, the internal inspection method using X-rays differs depending on the internal electrode structure (stacked or wound). The X-ray detector also varies depending on whether in-line or off-line inspection is used.
Dual-energy X-ray transmission can identify battery chemistry and internal structure, allowing automated sortation into precise categories . Spectroscopic techniques, like laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), can rapidly characterize alloy composition . ... ...
