It covers standardization/product certification, battery function, performance, safety and reliability design/analysis to provide the ultimate solutions on quality, safety and reliability for Ampace customers.

  • It is equipped with advanced instruments and methodologies that support the testing validation, and characterization of raw materials, components, battery cell, battery module, and battery pack as well as application systems. The lab has been certified with CNAS/ISO17025 and IATF16949 standards.

  • The battery reliability analysis/prediction is carried out by breaking down the system into sub-systems (electro-chemical, electrical/electronic, and mechanical), and then to key components. The reliability life prediction is achieved by in-depth analysis of failure mechanisms at the key component level together with the life prediction algorithm and accelerated aging tests.

  • Product safety is Ampace’s core competence. Zero safety incident in the market is our ultimate target. This is achieved thru the effective identification of product safety risks in early stages of product development, and the development and implementation of ultimate safety technologies before product launch into market.

  • Ensure Ampace product solutions meet the standard and certification requirements of various regions, participate and lead the development of industry standards at national and international levels
