Battery systems
Type of test:
Assembly inspection of lithium-ion batteries.
Challenge:
Due to production or assembly errors, the contact, insulation and electrolyte foil is damaged in some batteries.
Possible consequences:
A short circuit can be the result. This can lead to a high thermal reaction of the electrolyte. The resulting outgassing causes the battery to swell externally. Inflated, deformed, outgassed lithium-containing batteries can lead to explosions and fires.
Advantages of CT testing:
- Dismantling of batteries in small devices is not necessary for the test. The devices can therefore be used immediately after the test
- By sorting out defective batteries, higher quality can be guaranteed, and prevention against legal disputes and negative press in case of a fire can be operated
