Industry Background
The global move towards clean and renewable energy is reshaping the Energy Storage Systems industry, driving rapid growth across electric mobility, solar power, telecom, UPS, and data Centers. As the market evolves, battery manufacturers are under increasing pressure to deliver products that are safer, more reliable, and built for long service life.
Epoxy adhesives play a crucial role in multiple bonding & sealing applications within battery assemblies, directly impacting product performance. In this environment, precision, consistency, and efficiency in adhesive dispensing are no longer optional—they are essential to ensure superior quality while maintaining cost competitiveness.
Customer Introduction
The customer is a Mumbai-based manufacturer of zinc-based rechargeable battery packs, focused on delivering a greener and safer alternative for energy storage. Operating through a pilot manufacturing facility, they utilize epoxy adhesives in significant volumes for critical bonding of the Lid and Enclosure of the battery pack.
Battery Pack Enclosure
Understanding the Problem
The epoxy used for this application was supplied in bulk containers, requiring frequent manual transfer, measuring, mixing, and manual application, which introduced multiple process inefficiencies, wastage and quality risks. A critical bonding operation required dispensing epoxy into a narrow groove profile of the battery Enclosure, where precision was essential.
The manual approach resulted in the following challenges:
ADoST Solution
Seeking a more controlled and reliable process, the customer partnered with the ADoST team to strengthen their epoxy dispensing operation. The ADoST team introduced the ADoST CDS PRO, a semi-automated 2K cartridge dispensing system, along with the ADoST PEN, an accessory that facilitates the precise and controlled dispensing of adhesives, ensuring optimal placement and consistency.
The solution replaced manual weighing, mixing, and hand dispensing by enabling bulk epoxy to be down-filled into 400 ml dual cartridges, ensuring accurate ratio control and fine-line dispensing. This upgrade eliminated air entrapment, ensured homogeneous mixing, and delivered a uniform bead within narrow groove paths.
