A Battery Assembly Line Quote Starts With One Message

BatteryLine Pro builds turnkey module and pack assembly lines for plants that receive finished cells and ship tested packs, at 4–8, 8 and 12–15 PPM. Three facts get an engineering answer moving: the cell you build around, the takt you are held to, and the bay the line has to stand in.

01Cell formatCapacity, chemistry and the three outside dimensions — 314 Ah prismatic at 207 × 173 × 72 mm is enough.
02Target PPMCells entering the module segment. An annual MWh or GWh figure works, say which it is.
03Bay, three dimensionsLength, width and clear height in metres, measured under the lowest obstruction.

A layout, a tier recommendation and a labelled station list come back within 24 hours.

What each line decides

Battery Assembly Line Quote Inputs

None of the three need a specification written first. Each one closes off a different part of the engineering answer, which is why an incomplete enquiry still gets a reply — it just gets a narrower one.

20–80 mm Published cell envelope: 20 to 80 mm thick, 100 to 220 mm wide, 100 to 220 mm high, with modules 400 to 1200 mm long. Inside it, a cell is a tooling question. Outside it, a different conversation — answered the same day.

01Cell

The Cell Decides the Tooling

Fixture stroke, stacking pitch, busbar geometry and the addressing program are cut to a specific cell rather than to a category. If the cell is not fixed yet, give the two you are choosing between and both get costed. What a format change costs once a line is running is set out on the cell compatibility page.

Thickness: 20–80 mm
Width & height: 100–220 mm
Module length: 400–1200 mm

02Takt

The Takt Decides the Configuration

Four to eight, eight, and twelve to fifteen packs a minute are three different builds, not one build with a dial. Installed power moves from 200 kW to 300 kW across them, line length from 54 to 56 metres, and the headcount on each segment moves with both. An annual figure converts on a stated basis: 300 working days at 8 hours, against a 314 Ah cell in a 1P13S module.

Economy tier: 500 MWh–1 GWh/yr
High automation: 1–2 GWh/yr
Installed power: 200–300 kW

03Bay

The Bay Decides Whether a Layout Exists

Length and width place the line and set whether it runs straight or folds. Clear height decides whether it stands up at all, and the three tiers need 3.5 to 4 metres. Floor loading of 800 kg per square metre or better is the other gate. The full utility and building requirement per configuration is on the factory layout and utilities page.

Clear height: 3.5–4 m
Floor loading: ≥800 kg/m²
Line length: 54–56 m

Clear Height Is the Figure Sent From Memory

Ceiling services — cable tray, sprinkler runs, ducting and crane rail — commonly take 300 to 500 mm off the structural figure, which turns a 4 metre beam soffit into 3.6 metres of usable height. Measure to the lowest thing over the line’s path, not to the roof.

Supply checked against the tier: three-phase five-wire 380 V at 50 Hz.
Compressed air at 0.5 to 0.7 MPa, nitrogen at 0.5 MPa, flow figures differing by tier.
A column in an awkward place is handled as a layout problem, not passed back as a machine constraint.

What comes back

24~~Hours~~

Battery Assembly Line Quote Turnaround

Four things come back in the first reply, and a short set of questions goes back with them. Nothing in that reply is a brochure page.

A Layout Against Your Bay

Drawn against your dimensions rather than a standard drawing: line run, station spacing, material entry and exit, operator positions, and where power, compressed air and nitrogen enter.
A Tier Recommendation, With the Reasoning

You can see which of your three inputs drove it and what would change if one of them moved. The three tiers side by side are on the tier selection page.
A Station List, Labelled Station by Station

The module segment has 17 stations and the pack segment has 15, and every one of them is marked automatic, semi-automatic or manual. The pack segment is manual at most stations, which is visible in that list rather than described around.
Questions Back to You

Usually the supply and consumable conditions at your site, since the flow figures for air and nitrogen differ by tier and settle the ancillary scope.

Who reads it

Engineers Behind Your Battery Assembly Line Quote

Enquiries reach a 26-person engineering team. The first reply is put together by three of the four groups, and the people do not change after the enquiry stage.

8Mechanical engineers — they draw your layout
6Electrical and control — supply, air and nitrogen
4Laser and vision process — welding parameters
8Field commissioning — install on your floor

Process Reads the Cell and the Takt

Those two decide welding parameters, stacking pitch and how many parallel stations a segment needs. They are the figures that settle before anything is drawn.

Mechanical Draws Against Your Bay

The same engineers who designed the stations standing on it. That is why an obstruction in the wrong place comes back as a rerouted line rather than as a constraint handed to you.

Control Checks What You Can Supply

Your supply, air and nitrogen against the tier being proposed, before the tier is recommended rather than after it is ordered.

Engineering floor where layouts and station lists are drawn

Same names, enquiry to sign-off The mechanical group that drew your layout stays with the project through build; field commissioning installs on your floor; electrical and control holds the remote diagnostics connection afterwards. How the work divides is on the company page.

Ask by email

Documents Available on Request

These come back without a project being open. Say which line tier or workstation you are looking at and they arrive matched to it, rather than as a general pack.

Sample Layout Drawing and Station List

From a completed line, with the automatic, semi-automatic and manual labelling intact, so you can see the level of detail before you commit an enquiry to it.

Sample Acceptance Criteria Set

Acceptance runs station by station against criteria agreed before shipment, on cells, busbars, end plates, enclosures and cooling plates from your own supply chain. The sequence and what happens when a criterion is missed first time are on the acceptance page.

Certificate Copies

ISO 9001, CE and RoHS.

Drawings Under NDA

Detailed machine drawings and control architecture are released under a mutual non-disclosure agreement, which we can have signed the same week.

Workstation Specification Sheets

Workstation	Quoted against
Busbar welding	Weld pull force ≥1000 N
Cell testing and sorting	Sorting bands and cycle
Stacking and pressing	Stacking pitch, press force
Terminal addressing	Polarity read, addressing pass
Cooling plate gluing	Bead width and placement
End-of-line testing	Equipment-caused yield ≥99%
Conveying	Positioning repeatability

Each sheet carries the figures that station is quoted against, so a specification you receive can be checked against the same numbers at acceptance.

Before you order one

Visits to the Assembly Hall

Our 6,000 square metre assembly hall holds three full-line pre-assembly bays, and a line is powered up and run in one of them before it is crated. The visit is worth more when a bay has been set up for your configuration first.

Send Two Weeks Ahead

Your cell drawing, so the fixtures on the bay match the cell you build around.
Module and pack configuration, so the stacking and busbar geometry are yours.
Target takt, so the line you watch runs at a rate that means something to you.

What the Day Actually Shows

The module segment cycling through stacking, pressing, terminal addressing and busbar welding.
Weld samples pulled in front of you, with the figure recorded as it is read.
End-of-line insulation and dielectric testing run against its written criteria.
The engineers who would be assigned to your project — usually the part that decides things.

When travel is not possible

On-Site and Remote Walkthroughs

The same walkthrough runs as a scheduled video session against the same written criteria, with an engineer on the floor moving where you ask. Forty-plus line segments have shipped to twelve countries, and remote sessions are a normal part of that.

	On the floor	Scheduled video
Criteria used	Written, signed before shipment	The same written set
Camera control	You walk the line	Engineer moves where you ask
Weld pull samples	Pulled in front of you	Pulled on camera, figure read out
Record afterwards	Report and station table	Report, station table and recording
Notice to arrange	Two weeks, bay set up first	Same, bay set up first

Lines already installed

Spare Parts and Remote Support

Lines already installed use the same email address. Wear parts are dispatched within 48 hours of an order, and a request that names the tier, the station and the part routes without going through the enquiry queue.

Remote Diagnostics Are Built Into Every Line

A controller, vision or drive fault can be opened by the engineers who commissioned it, starting from the parameters as they were left at acceptance rather than from a description over the phone.

StationWhere the fault sits on the line.
Fault codeAs the controller reports it.
Line stopped?Say so, and it moves ahead of everything else.

The shortest route

Three Routes, One Engineering Team

Sending it once through any one of them is enough. If a datasheet or floor plan is easier than typing, email them instead — the same facts in a message body work just as well as in the form.

The Form on This Page

Goes straight into our enquiry system and shows a confirmation with exactly what was sent, so you keep a copy of what you sent.

Fastest to a layout

Email With Attachments

Drawings, cell datasheets and floor plans travel best here. Name the tier or workstation in the subject and the documents come back matched to it.
