Key Features – Automatic Liquid Injection Equipment

  • Zero Pressure Differential Filling: Cell internal and external pressure equalized during filling, preventing case deformation, reducing soaking time, and improving efficiency. Internal/external positive nitrogen pressure ≤0.6MPa.
  • Pre-Fill Cleaning System: Filling cup and nozzle cleaning before each cycle improves filling accuracy and prevents secondary contamination.
  • Residual Liquid Collection: Nozzle drip collection after filling avoids electrolyte contamination on cell surfaces.
  • Tapered Insert Nozzle: Eliminates liquid residue at the filling port step/right‑angle junction.
  • Modular Design: Capacity unaffected by soaking time; additional filling units can be added to maintain throughput when process time increases.
  • High-Precision Dosing: Electronic ceramic variable pump delivers ±0.2% pump accuracy and ±0.8% overall filling accuracy.
  • MES Integration: Full traceability with barcode scanning and data upload for quality tracking and process optimization.

FAQ

Q1: What is zero pressure differential filling and why is it important?

Zero pressure differential filling equalizes internal and external cell pressure during filling, preventing case deformation, reducing soaking time, and improving efficiency. This is critical for prismatic aluminum‑shell cells where case deformation can compromise cell performance and safety.

Q2: What is the typical production throughput for this machine?

The machine achieves ≥12 PPM (cells per minute) with total soaking and pressure time ≤25 minutes. Throughput can be customized based on specific cell sizes and electrolyte filling volumes.

Q3: What is the difference between first filling and second filling?

Our equipment is compatible with both first filling and second filling processes. First filling occurs after cell assembly to introduce the initial electrolyte, while second filling (or refilling) compensates for electrolyte consumed during formation, ensuring optimal cell performance.

Q4: Can this machine be integrated with my MES system?

Yes. The system supports full MES integration with barcode scanning, pre‑fill and post‑fill weighing data upload, and real‑time production monitoring for complete traceability and quality control.

Q5: How does the residual liquid collection system work?

After each filling cycle, the nozzle drip collection system captures residual electrolyte to prevent contamination on cell surfaces. This ensures clean cell exteriors and reduces waste.

Q6: What is the filling accuracy of this machine?

The electronic ceramic variable pump delivers ±0.2% pump accuracy with ±0.8% overall filling accuracy, supported by ±0.01g pre‑fill and post‑fill weighing precision for closed‑loop quality control.
