Product Information:

The Battery Impact Tester is designed for safety performance evaluation of lithium-ion cells and battery packs by simulating heavy object impact conditions.

The tester reproduces extreme mechanical abuse by allowing a specified mass to fall freely from a defined height and strike the battery sample through a metal bar, thereby assessing battery resistance to impact and the risk of fire, explosion, or leakage.

The system is equipped with a reinforced explosion-proof test chamber, motorized lifting mechanism, and automatic control system, making it suitable for laboratory certification testing and production safety verification.

Application

(1) Cylindrical lithium-ion cells (e.g., 18650, 21700)

(2) Prismatic lithium-ion batteries

(3) Pouch (polymer) lithium batteries

(4) Button and coin cells

(5) Lithium-ion battery packs for consumer electronics

(6) Power battery modules for electric vehicles

(7) Energy storage battery packs
