Dedicated craftsmanship safeguards the “lithium” journey—STEP Robotics makes its debut at the GaoGong Lithium Battery Intelligent Manufacturing Summit.
2023-04-23
From April 13 to 14, 2023, the 2023 GaoGong Lithium Battery Intelligent Manufacturing Summit and the Western Robotics Conference were held at the Longzhi Dream Hotel in Chengdu. This year’s summit was themed “Extreme Efficiency, Extreme Quality, Extreme Cost,” bringing together over 700 leaders from upstream and downstream enterprises across the lithium battery industry chain. As a partner, STEP attended the conference and showcased its robotic products for the lithium battery industry.
At the TOP50 Awards Ceremony held concurrently with the summit, STEP has been awarded “2023 Outstanding Enterprise in New Energy Intelligent Manufacturing.” We fully recognize STEP’ contributions to the field of intelligent manufacturing of lithium batteries, as well as its demonstrated product innovation and brand recognition.
Drawing crowds and boosting its follower base on-site, STEPeng Robotics truly deserves to be called the “popularity king.”
This exhibition's YR Series YR101030 The SCARA robot, specially customized for the lithium-ion battery industry, attracted wave after wave of spectators who gathered to watch and interact with it, making it the “most popular attraction” throughout the entire conference.
This product features a specialized R&D effort focused on the pre-stacking module segment for dual-station adhesive application machines used with roll materials and small-surface adhesive application processes. By adding two guide rod components to the main body, the rigidity of the robot has been enhanced. Compared to conventional robots, the maximum inertia is increased by 120% (2.0 kg·m²), and the lead screw rigidity is improved by 300%. In conjunction with the advanced dynamics algorithm from STEP Zhongweixing, this feature suppresses vibrations while ensuring stability without reducing speed.
Dedicated craftsmanship and specialized research to create all-scenario lithium battery solutions.
In recent years, the rise of new-energy vehicles has driven growth in demand for lithium batteries. STEPeng has combined robotics technology with lithium-battery manufacturing techniques to develop a series of comprehensive solutions tailored to all types of applications. These solutions significantly enhance production efficiency and product quality across various stages, including lithium-battery electrode sheet fabrication, cell assembly, chemical composition and capacity testing, as well as module and PACK line processes.
As the core of the solution, STEP Robotics closely aligns with lithium-ion battery application scenarios, continuously enhancing its product capabilities and driving an increase in installed capacity.
In the SCARA robot product line, STEP focuses on its Zhongwei Xing sub-brand. The entire product series features arm lengths ranging from 300mm to 1200mm and payload capacities from 1kg to 50kg, capable of meeting the process production requirements of the lithium battery industry.
The AR/GR/FR/YR series SCARA robots are widely used in processes such as winding, assembly, liquid injection, nail insertion and removal, and X-ray/OCV inspection in the cell manufacturing stage. In the stacking stations for power batteries, there is a continuously increasing demand for higher production efficiency. The GR high-speed SCARA series can significantly improve production efficiency at the stacking station, with a cycle time as fast as 0.35 seconds. In the module & PACK line process, a specialized R&D effort was launched specifically targeting the pre-stacked module segment process, resulting in the introduction of... The custom YR-series robot for the lithium battery industry features a 20 kg payload and supports three installation methods: upright, overhead, and side-mounted. With an arm span ranging from 600 mm to 1200 mm, it meets the process requirements for robotic rigidity, cycle time, stability, and precision.
Similarly, YR122040 heavy-duty 50KG robot To meet the demanding requirements of the lithium-ion battery industry—such as heavy module weights, fast cycle times, and high assembly precision—this solution offers exceptional cost-effectiveness. It has been extensively and reliably applied in the module assembly production lines of leading lithium battery companies.
In the future, STEP Robot will continue to enhance its capabilities in providing comprehensive solutions tailored for the lithium-ion battery industry, empowering our partners and delivering low-carbon, high-speed, highly efficient, and cost-effective solutions to our customers, thereby continually pushing the boundaries of industrial automation.
