Our battery testing experts have compiled four basic steps to develop a new or updated battery test lab, as well as a list of important considerations for each phase.
While all four steps are important, the ability to answer the questions under step one fully and accurately before moving forward is crucial.
Understanding your testing requirements up front allows the design to be tailored to your unique testing needs and helps you avoid over-spending on unnecessary equipment or mis-using valuable time and resources.
What is the testing purpose and application?
Research level exploratory testing and product development for example come with different challenges.
What cells/batteries will be under test? What variations? At what scale?
Each cell chemistry, design, and size come with unique testing challenges.
Expected resources and deadlines? How much testing is required against the expected timescales of the project?
This will define the required capability and how heavily the lab will be loaded.
Data requirements? What types and how much? How likely are they to change?
This will determine the need for flexibility and upgradeability in the future.
