Select battery cells

　　1. Everyone has this feeling. When buying clothes, I subconsciously choose branded clothes because brands represent service and quality. So the choice of battery is also the same. The battery quality of brands such as Ningde, Guoxuan, and Yiwei is undoubtedly a lever. It doesn't necessarily mean that a brand is good. Because it involves cost and cycle issues, it is best to choose a cost-effective option. For AGVs, the quality of power batteries largely depends on their quality, so caution should be exercised when selecting batteries.

　　2. The above one brand has brand advantages, but the cost will be relatively high. In fact, for AGV lithium batteries, the key issue is to choose qualified batteries from the manufacturer, which is commonly referred to as A-grade batteries. Do not use B-grade (downgraded products) or disassembled products.

　　3. Customers may be subconsciously influenced. Among the three types of structures in lithium-ion batteries (square aluminum shell, cylindrical, and soft pack), they would believe that a certain type of structure would be better. Actually, this is a misunderstanding. In theory, any type of battery structure can be used for AGV lithium batteries, but in our experience, the treatment process for soft pack batteries is much more complex. Regarding cylindrical batteries, you can refer to the relevant article "Analysis of the Advantages of Cylindrical Batteries" to understand.

　　Secondly, warranty issues

　　1. The service life is directly related to the warranty length of the battery. When you use an item, you must hope for a longer lifespan as much as possible. But any item will have its lifespan. So, what are the main factors that affect the service life of the power batteries used on AGVs? Battery quality and usage environment. The former will not be repeated, while the latter mainly refers to load and voltage capacity. If the load is small, low discharge can be chosen to extend the service life of the battery; Under the same conditions, an increase in capacity will increase the discharge time and prolong the service life. The issue of lifespan cannot be generalized: the actual usage of the battery.

　　2. Battery insurance, we need to advise customers whether the information manufacturer has liability insurance for lithium batteries when choosing AGV lithium batteries. Due to the high value of AGV vehicles, if one believes that the compensation ability of lithium battery manufacturers themselves is limited and they will be very passive, then insurance is a more suitable choice. At the same time, manufacturers who are able to purchase lithium battery insurance, especially global insurance, are also a reflection of their own strength.
