Problem
Accurate analysis of battery electrical performance and physical changes, such as swelling, is challenging due to inconsistent testing conditions and limitations of conventional climate chambers. Existing methods often lack the precision needed to generate reliable digital twin models of lithium-ion cells, hindering optimization of battery performance and lifespan.
Solution
MBTS GmbH offers an automated battery testing solution that operates under tightly controlled isothermal and isobaric conditions, enabling precise characterization of pouch and prismatic cells. The system incorporates a patented thermal head integrated with a high-precision mechanical press to maintain consistent temperature and pressure, eliminating variability and ensuring repeatable results. This allows for accurate measurement of electrical performance and physical changes, including breathing and swelling, with sub-micron displacement resolution. The resulting high-fidelity data facilitates the creation of accurate material cards and detailed hysteresis studies, which can be used to build data-driven digital twins for battery systems. By providing precise control over key physical parameters, the MBTS system accelerates battery development, reduces iterations, and speeds up time to market.
Target Audience
The primary customers are battery manufacturers, automotive companies, and energy storage system developers seeking to improve battery performance, extend lifespan, and accelerate time to market.
