How Portable Measurement Technology is Used in Battery Case Manufacturing and Assembly?

Assembly is one of the important links in manufacturing process, which requires strict process control and quality control. For example, in the manufacturing process of new energy vehicle batteries, aluminum alloy materials are often used to make battery shells in order to make the battery lighter and enhance heat dissipation. However, aluminum parts are susceptible to thermal deformation during production and assembly, resulting in deviations in mounting hole positions, frame structures, and battery module assembly accuracy.

To solve the problem, PMT portable arm is used to inspect the battery case, and gives feedback on production process through real-time data acquisition. This will help to facilitate both manufacturing and assembly process, and improve product quality and production efficiency.

Analyse Measurement Requirements
and Facilitate Manufacturing and Assembly Processes

The measurement requirements are divided into three aspects. Combining with software, PMT measuring arm can obtain a comprehensive data which will be served as an important basis for the improvement of production and assembly processes.

Precision Measurement of Mounting Holes

Since the mounting holes of the battery case need to be precisely matched to the structure of the vehicle, each mounting hole must be within the design tolerances. The test results can be used to adjust the assembly fixtures in the production line and reduce errors.

Frame Size and Flatness

Detect the overall size and surface flatness of the frame to ensure that the frame will not be deformed due to welding or processing stress. The inspection data can be fed back to the welding and cooling processes to improve process parameters.

Assembly Accuracy of Battery Module Installation

Check the assembly accuracy of the battery module to ensure that the module is accurately matched with the internal frame of the battery case. The test data is used to adjust the internal support and fixing process to avoid any deformation that will affect the product performance in the installation position.

Measurement Process and Data Feedback

Portable Measurement Process
and Real-time Data Feedback

During the measurement process, the probe detects the position of the mounting holes one by one, and PMT blue-light ScanArm scans the frame size and flatness to ensure that each workpiece meets the quality standards. The measured data is sent to the quality control system in real time, and reports are generated and sent to the production team.

Production&Assembly
Concerted Feedback

According to the test report, the production line can adjust the processing parameters in real time, such as welding temperature and fixture fixing accuracy, to make sure the assembly error of each component is within the tolerance range.
