High-Precision Electric Cylinders: Empowering Core Scenarios in the New Energy Industry
The core of the new energy industry lies in "energy conversion efficiency" and "production reliability". Whether in the fields of photovoltaics (PV), lithium batteries, or hydrogen energy, even minor errors in the production process can directly affect the performance and service life of end products. The emergence of high-precision electric cylinders has precisely provided a "precision-driven solution" to address this challenge.
1. PV Manufacturing: The "Stable Partner" from Wafer Handling to Module Encapsulation
In PV cell production lines, processes such as wafer cleaning, coating, and electrode printing require high-precision positioning of materials.
Traditional pneumatic cylinders, which rely on air pressure fluctuations, are prone to issues like uneven thrust and positioning deviations. In contrast, high-precision electric cylinders—driven directly by servo motors and equipped with high-precision encoders (boasting a repeat positioning accuracy of ±0.01mm)—ensure "zero offset" of wafers throughout the transfer process.
For example, in the lamination process of PV modules, high-precision electric cylinders can accurately control the pressure of the laminator’s upper and lower covers as well as the closing speed. This avoids hidden cracks in cells caused by pressure fluctuations, significantly improving the yield rate.
2. Lithium Battery Production: The "Force Steward" for Electrode Manufacturing and Cell Assembly
Lithium battery production imposes extremely strict requirements on "force control precision":
- Electrode coating requires uniform force application to avoid thickness deviations;
- Cell winding/stacking demands stable compression to ensure a tight structure;
- The module PACK process requires even higher precision alignment for efficient connection.
High-precision electric cylinders excel in meeting these demands: their thrust range covers 50N to several tons (customizable based on requirements), with a force output linearity of over 99%. Combined with real-time feedback from pressure sensors, they can precisely adjust the press-fitting force (with an error of <±1%).
3. Hydrogen Energy Equipment: The "Safety Guardian" for Filling and Testing Processes
In hydrogen fuel cell stack assembly or hydrogen refueling equipment, the low-friction and leak-free characteristics of high-precision electric cylinders (compared to hydraulic systems) greatly enhance operational safety.
With a response speed reaching the millisecond level, high-precision electric cylinders can quickly complete the opening/closing control of hydrogen valves or the precise compression of stack units. When paired with explosion-proof designs, they perfectly meet the strict "zero-risk" requirements of hydrogen energy scenarios.
