Imagine you're about to catch a flight, but right before confirming your details, your phone battery dies. Frustrating, right? Now, think about the same situation, but instead of your phone, it's an electric vehicle on the road or a critical medical device during surgery. The stakes are much higher.

This is where industrial CT scanning plays a vital role. Just as you wouldn’t leave for a trip without checking your phone's battery, companies across industries—whether aerospace, energy, or consumer electronics—rely on Nel PreTech to ensure their batteries are tested, analyzed, and ready to perform at their best.

When it comes to battery reliability, performance matters. And at Nel PreTech, we leave nothing to chance.

What Is Industrial CT Scanning for Battery Analysis?

Industrial CT (computed tomography) scanning is a non-destructive testing method that allows us to peer inside the structure of batteries and other components without taking them apart. This advanced imaging technique provides detailed cross-sectional data, revealing potential defects, internal geometries, and structural integrity.

Whether you’re developing next-gen batteries for electric vehicles, designing high-performance batteries for medical devices, or ensuring safety in consumer electronics, Nel PreTech's CT scanning technology provides you with the data-driven insights needed to optimize your designs and maintain high-quality standards.

Benefits of Industrial CT Scanning for Batteries

How does CT scanning benefit battery development across industries? When you partner with Nel PreTech, you'll gain access to our cutting-edge CT technology, giving you the ability to:

  • Uncover hidden defects: Detect internal flaws such as cracks, voids, or inclusions that could lead to battery failure.
  • Measure internal geometries: Get precise data on the internal structure, including dimensions and component alignment.
  • Create accurate CAD models: Generate detailed 3D models of battery components for design improvement.
  • Conduct porosity analysis: Identify areas of porosity, which can impact the battery's lifespan and efficiency.

Why Choose CT Scanning for Battery Analysis?

Battery reliability is critical in industries where performance and safety are essential. Industrial CT scanning offers several advantages that set it apart from other testing methods:

1. Non-Destructive Testing

Unlike destructive testing methods, industrial CT allows for the preservation of the battery during analysis. This means the battery can be examined in its complete form, and you can reuse it for further testing or continued product development.

 

2. Porosity and Defect Detection

Industrial CT scanning provides high-resolution imaging capable of identifying micro-level defects and voids that could compromise the performance of your battery. With precise data on porosity, manufacturers can avoid potential failures before they reach the market.

 

3. Dimensional Accuracy

The dimensional accuracy of industrial CT scanning ensures that every internal component is measured precisely. This is especially critical for industries like aerospace and medical devices, where tight tolerances are required for maximum performance and safety.

 

4. Cross-Industry Applications

CT scanning isn’t just for the electric vehicle industry. It’s applicable across a wide range of sectors, including:

  • Aerospace: Ensure the structural integrity of energy storage systems in aircraft.
  • Medical Devices: Guarantee the reliability of implantable devices powered by batteries.
  • Consumer Electronics: Validate the safety and longevity of portable tech products.
  • Energy Storage: Enhance the performance of batteries used in renewable energy systems.

Real-World Applications: Consumer Electronics

One of the industries seeing immense benefits from industrial CT scanning is consumer electronics. Take, for example, a battery from an Apple AirPod. By using CT scanning, we’re able to analyze the internal structure, identify defects, and ensure that the components meet design specifications—all without dismantling the device.

This process not only helps manufacturers optimize their designs but also ensures long-term reliability and product safety—both critical factors in consumer electronics, where small components can have a significant impact on performance.
