The CMT accelerates the production of liquid-cooled components for battery packs

2024-02-06

What is CMT Welding? Cold Metal Transfer (CMT) is a welding technique that effectively addresses the common challenge of slag spatter. This method significantly reduces the heat input during the welding process through a controlled arc transfer mechanism, making it particularly beneficial for applications where traditional MIG/MAG welding struggles, such as welding thin plates or combining dissimilar materials like steel and aluminum. The evolution of the GMAW process, CMT incorporates a technique to achieve metal transfer with minimal heat intensity, creating a hot-cold sequence that reduces arc pressure and thermal input, enhancing productivity and reducing the need for post-weld finishing (Marulanda, 2008). How Does CMT Work? CMT stands for Cold Metal Transition Technology, an enhanced version of short-circuit transfer. It combines wire feeding and retracting actions in a way that traditional GMAW does not. The process starts with arc ignition and wire advancement, forming a molten droplet that, through a short circuit, causes the wire to retract and the droplet to detach, significantly reducing current and voltage. This dynamic action, occurring up to 70 times per second, makes CMT unique and effective in welding applications. The innovation of adding pulses (CMT + P) further refines this process, combining projected and short circuit transfer modes for stable, smooth transfer processes, allowing for greater penetration and weld bead contact angles with higher pulse currents (Pang et al., 2016). The Benefits of CMT CMT enhances welding precision and operational speed through the wire’s rapid oscillation, ensuring a clean welding area with minimal spatter and reduced heat input. This mitigates material warping and surrounding impact while maintaining stable arc quality. Its versatility across various welding speeds and proficiency in welding thin materials or bridging gaps highlights its adaptability and innovation. CMT’s ability to revolutionize the welding of dissimilar metals and thicker materials has made…

Powering the Future: What Path is Battery Pack Technology Taking in the Evolution of Energy?

2024-01-04

The rise of electric vehicles has spurred the rapid development of battery technology, and the evolution of battery pack technology is a crucial component of this technological revolution. From the initial stages of CTP to CTB, MTC, and further to the CTC phase, each stage of innovation aims to enhance energy density, reduce costs, and improve the overall performance of the battery system. The continuous innovation in battery pack technology has not only brought about a qualitative improvement in the range of electric vehicles but also propelled the entire industry forward. CTP (Cell-To-Pack) CTP (Cell-To-Pack) is a technology that reduces or eliminates the three-tier pack structure of battery cells, modules, and the overall pack. It bypasses the standard module step by directly integrating the battery cells onto the pack, eliminating the intermediate module stage and effectively enhancing the space utilization and energy density of the battery pack. Currently, there are two main technological approaches: the fully module-less method and the use of larger modules replacing smaller ones. The release of the Kirin battery by CATL adopts the third-generation CTP technology. This technology completely eliminates the module-based layout, discarding the separate design of battery pack crossbeams, bottom cooling plates, and thermal insulation pads.  Instead, it integrates them into a multifunctional elastic interlayer. This design enables the Kirin battery to possess advantages such as rapid temperature control, improved safety, support for 4C high-voltage fast charging technology, and increased battery lifespan. Advantages Lower manufacturing cost Relatively simple maintenance Easy adaptation to different vehicle models and application scenarios Improved volume utilization Increased energy density Disadvantages Increased difficulty in managing thermal runaway High process requirements Difficulties in maintenance and replacement Long battery pack assembly time Challenges in the reuse of cells CTB (Cell-To-Body) In CTB technology, the design of modules and the casing on the…

Battery liquid cooling system: The crucial role of liquid cooling plates Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Project Contact: Chris +86 193-5550-1188 info@xdthermal.com Battery liquid cooling system: The crucial role of liquid cooling plates Key Role of the Battery Liquid Cooling System: efficiently balances heat, precisely controls temperatures to boost battery system power density, and prolongs battery lifespan.   What is battery liquid cooling system? In the design of battery systems, engineers pay particular attention to the internal liquid cooling system. Unlike natural cooling and air-cooling techniques (which rely on airflow and have limitations in high-power lithium-ion battery applications), the liquid cooling system utilizes a high thermal conductivity liquid coolant (usually a cooling fluid or a thermal-conductive liquid) to regulate the battery’s temperature. The liquid is typically sealed inside the battery pack and can come into indirect or direct contact with the battery cells. Indirect liquid cooling, employing cooling plate technology, is well-established and widely used in energy storage stations and electric vehicles. On the other hand, direct liquid cooling, known as immersion cooling, demonstrates superior cooling effectiveness, but its maintenance is more complex. Active Air Cooling System Passive Air Cooling System Typical Liquid Cooling System Working Diagram Power Battery Liquid Cooling System(indirect liquid cooling) The power battery pack’s liquid cooling system is a sophisticated setup consisting of a control system, cooling fluid circulation system, temperature sensors, coolant, and the pivotal battery liquid cooling plate. The cooling plate emerges as a critical element in the system, enabling precise and efficient regulation of the battery temperature to maximize its functionality. When the battery starts operating, temperature sensors detect changes inside the pack. If the temperature rises, the system activates coolant circulation. The coolant absorbs heat from battery cells and, through the liquid cooling plate, exchanges heat with external air. The control system, using temperature…
