Leak testing of EV battery cells and modules is vital for safety and defect prevention in North America's growing mobility industry. Early detection of leaks, especially during module assembly, saves time and money while ensuring quality control.

To ensure a good RFP, engineers must provide as much detail as possible.

Leak testing is an important quality control measure in manufacturing. This article provides guidance on determining leak testing specifications by exploring factors and modifying existing specifications or creating new ones.

With pumping speeds ranging from 80 to 800 liters per second, the HiCube Neo vacuum pumping station is ideal for demanding high vacuum and ultra-high vacuum applications.

LACO offers a complete line of manual and automated helium bombing systems.

The MED75y instrument is designed for high-speed leak testing of medical devices ranging in volume from several cubic centimeters to several liters.

The AF-R221 is optimal for testing discharge flow and tightness.

Plant engineers and quality departments often struggle with zero point drift during air leak testing, where the initial zero reading shifts over time, leading to frequent adjustments of the leak test instrument. This article addresses the causes of zero drift, commonly attributed to changes in shop floor temperature, and provides strategies to minimize or eliminate this issue for improved efficiency in quality control processes.

Some manufacturers will use a single-point calibration system to measure volumetric flow—however, a two-point calibration provides a much higher level of accuracy.

For lithium-ion traction batteries, leak detection is imperative for battery performance, longevity and safety, especially the prevention of fires.
