I. Solution Background: Meeting Customized Needs in Specific Segments
With the increasing demand for lithium batteries in smart wearables, manufacturing, communications equipment, power equipment, energy storage systems, and other fields, standardized lithium batteries are no longer able to meet the size, power consumption, and environmental adaptability requirements of different products. For example, smart wearables require "small size, low power consumption, and long cycle life," power equipment requires "high rate capability and high and low temperature resistance," and energy storage systems require "large capacity and high safety." This solution addresses the customization pain points faced by product manufacturers, providing comprehensive services from demand analysis to after-sales support, ensuring a precise match between customized batteries and products.
II. Core Step 1: In-depth Needs Assessment - Laying the Foundation for Customization
1. Needs Analysis and Scenario Adaptation
First, clarify the core product requirements using a "Needs Survey Form." Focus on key parameters based on the application domain to avoid repeated adjustments later:
Application Areas Core Needs Key Parameter Priority
Smart Wearables Small size, light weight, low self-discharge Dimensions (≤50mm × 30mm × 5mm) > Capacity (500-1500mAh) > Cycles (≥500)
Processing and Manufacturing Equipment High stability, vibration resistance Internal resistance (≤50mΩ) > Temperature adaptability (-20°C to 60°C) > Capacity (2000-5000mAh)
Power Equipment (e.g., drones) High-rate discharge, long cycle life Rate (≥10C) > Cycles (≥800) Cycle life (cycles) > Capacity (5,000-20,000 mAh)
Energy Storage Technology Equipment Large Capacity, Low Attenuation Capacity (≥10,000 mAh) > Cycle Life (≥1,000 cycles) > Safety (overcharge protection)
2. Feasibility and Cost Prediction
Preliminary assessment of technical feasibility based on requirements (e.g., whether mold development is required for special dimensions, or whether custom cells are required for high-rate batteries). Clarify the cost structure to avoid later cost disputes:
If custom-made special-shaped structures (e.g., curved or ultra-thin) are required, inform us in advance of the mold development service fee (5,000-20,000 RMB depending on complexity);
If only capacity/voltage adjustments are required (no structural changes required), the mold development fee is waived, and only the development service fee (3,000-8,000 RMB) is charged.
Prototyping fees are charged based on the number of samples (100-500 RMB per sample for a single design, with discounts available for bulk samples).
III. Core Step 2: Efficient Development Execution - Strict Cycle and Quality Control
1. Development Cycle Control (Phase-Based Implementation)
Design a standardized development process to meet product manufacturers' "timeliness" requirements for new product launches and shorten waiting times:
Phase Timeline Deliverables
After requirements confirmation 1-3 days Customized proposal (including parameters, structure, and cost)
After proposal confirmation 7-10 days Battery design drawings (including cell selection and BMS circuit)
After drawing confirmation 10-14 days First batch of samples (3-5)
After sample testing 3-5 days Test report (including capacity, cycle life, and temperature compatibility)
Mass production 15-20 days (depending on batch size) Qualified mass production products
Fast Track: If mold development is not required (e.g., only capacity/voltage adjustments are required), prototyping can be completed within 14 days. If mold development is required, the maximum lead time is no more than 30 days.
2. Development Quality Control
Battery Cell Selection: Prioritizes Class A cells that meet international standards (e.g., capacity deviation ≤ ±2%, cycle degradation ≤ 20%/500 cycles);
BMS Customization: Develop protection circuits based on product requirements, covering overcharge, over-discharge, overcurrent, short circuit, and overtemperature protection (e.g., power equipment must withstand discharge currents exceeding 10C, requiring the BMS to be compatible with high-power chips);
Sample Testing: Each batch of samples must pass three core tests: 1) Charge and Discharge Cycle Test (to verify lifespan); 2) High and Low Temperature Test (capacity retention ≥ 80% at -20°C to 60°C); and 3) Safety Test (no leakage or fire after squeezing or puncture).
IV. Core Step 3: Specialized Control of Key Considerations
1. Accurately Lock Core Parameters
To avoid product failure due to parameter mismatches, the following unchangeable core parameters must be clearly defined in the product plan:
Voltage/Capacity: Calculated based on product power consumption (e.g., for a 3.7V single battery/7.4V series connection, the capacity must meet 1.5 times the product's endurance requirement);
Rate: Power equipment must specify the continuous discharge rate (e.g., 5C continuous discharge for drones) and the pulse discharge rate (e.g., 10C at startup);
Environmental Adaptability: Outdoor products must indicate the temperature range (e.g., -30°C to 70°C) and waterproof rating (e.g., IP65).
2. Qualifications and Compliance Assurance
Ensure customized batteries meet industry standards to mitigate market access risks:
Required Certifications: GB/T 18287-2013 certification is required for domestic sales; CE (EU), UN38.3 (Transport Safety), and FCC (US Electromagnetic Compatibility) are required for export.
Manufacturer Qualifications: Prefer suppliers with a "Lithium Battery Production License" and ISO9001 Quality System Certification. Request photos of the production workshop and a list of testing equipment.
3. Transportation and Cost Optimization
Transportation Solution: Lithium batteries are hazardous materials and require crush-proof foam packaging and anti-static bags. Choose a logistics provider certified for hazardous materials transportation (such as SF Express Cold Chain/Hazardous Goods Line) to prevent damage during transportation.Cost Optimization: For batch production (≥1,000 units), mold opening fees can be negotiated or waived. Long-term partnerships can lock in raw material prices (avoiding the impact of lithium price fluctuations).
V. Core Component 4: After-Sales and Iteration Guarantee
Warranty Service: Provides a 1-2 year warranty (adjusted by application area, with a maximum of 2 years for energy storage products). If capacity degradation >20% or leakage occurs during the warranty period, a free replacement will be provided.
Fault Response: Respond to after-sales requests within 48 hours and issue a fault analysis report and solution within 7 days.Iteration Support: For product upgrades (such as size reduction or power reduction), a new round of solution design will be provided free of charge, with only the cost of prototyping charged.
VI. Solution Advantages Summary
Precise Matching: Ensures 100% compatibility between battery parameters and product features through scenario-based needs analysis.
