Successfully developed a new type of China-made batteries
Recently, a sea of military equipment manufactured under the supervision of a Representative Office of a new domestic battery appraised by experts and entered the pre-sample stage, will soon be delivered units. According to reports, after more than 20 items of technical innovation and process Canon EOS 300D Battery Grip improvement, this type of extended battery life than the original double the country far ahead of the technical indicators.
Batteries hidden behind the growth in exports
The latest customs statistics show that in 2006, Tianjin Port exported 320 million batteries, worth 340 million U.S. dollars, compared with 2005, grew 43.3%% and 43.2%%. While the battery export substantial growth, but due to our low level of battery research and development technology, mostly in low-end products, applications and markets a single, export structure is still irrational, resulting in exports has always been difficult to improve. The European Union has frequently set the green trade barriers, and rising raw material prices, but also so that domestic battery manufacturing costs rising, the industry outlook is not optimistic.
Since 2006, lead-acid batteries can not be a lack of raw materials - metals lead, nickel prices have increased considerably. As countries around the world to improve environmental protection requirements, lead is also a gradual increase in production costs, some developed countries have even stopped the production of lead, instead, to purchase finished products in the international market of lead, which causes electrolysis of lead prices soared. Lead prices in 2006 nearly doubled compared to 2003. Meanwhile, the price of nickel from the end of 2005 about 150 thousand yuan per ton, in 2006 rose to nearly 300 thousand yuan per ton. In addition, raw materials and natural manganese cobalt powder, zinc and other prices rise to varying degrees, the battery manufacturer’s profit margins are compressed, making some companies struggling, facing the risk of failure.
At present, China’s battery cell production in the world’s total output of more than half of the Canon EOS 350D Battery Grip production increase at the same time, countries frequently set the green trade barriers, but also so that domestic companies putting a heavy burden on the battery.
The European Commission on February 3, 2006 Release batteries and battery instruction, the introduction of the content of cadmium in portable batteries 0.002%% of the new restrictions. September 26, the EU’s Official Journal enactment of new batteries and battery instruction, battery exports to the EU not only to meet near-stringent mercury, cadmium content requirements, but also bear the expensive recovery costs. November 15 last year began, the French implementation of the new garbage collection system for electrical and electronic. It is learned that other EU countries are also expected to implement such a system. Industry sources said China’s cheap labor and resources, the battery price is no longer a competitive advantage. A substantial increase in battery costs, as well as technology lags behind, the battery export enterprises have been difficult.
In the field of high-end battery products, domestic enterprises have been blocking the same.
With the growing competition in the market, mobile phones, digital cameras, digital cameras, notebook computers and other new electronic products continues to introduce new environmentally friendly battery of new types of ever-rising demand. Fujian Nanping Nanfu Battery Co., Ltd. told reporters on the emerging lithium-ion batteries as an alternative to conventional nickel-metal hydride, lead-acid battery of new green environmental protection product, has been gradually extended. Because no mercury, cadmium and other pollutants Canon EOS 400D Battery Grip, long life, energy sufficient, high value-added, highly profitable, industry developed rapidly, exports hit record highs.
At present, the domestic manufacturers of lithium-ion battery for about 70%% of the capacity can be used to produce mobile phone battery. However, the high-end battery products has always been monopolized by foreign enterprises. Lithium-ion batteries are divided into single-core group and multi-core group, multi-core group of cells are formed by a multi-block battery cell, the production is difficult, high technology, highly profitable, mainly for high-end notebook computers and other electronic products. Multi-core group of cells, if the electric capacity of a single battery cell is not compliance, then the whole battery pack performance will be adversely affected, which in the production process is known as the consistency of the battery pack. At present, foreign companies have overcome this problem, but the vast majority of domestic manufacturers still in the manual stage, the consistency of the battery pack can not guarantee, therefore, internationally renowned manufacturer of notebook computers mostly use Japanese products.
Is domestic battery producers there is no chance it? China Battery Industry Association, one expert said the machine production of domestic battery is combined with manual assembly, on the same production line as long as the one to make minor adjustments, you can produce different specifications of products, equipment, less investment. Advantage of foreign companies a higher degree of machine production, product quality and stability, high efficiency, but for different specifications of the products require different equipment laptop battery , production lines, a larger amount of investment in equipment, product unit price higher, and therefore weaken the competitiveness .
Is not difficult to see business opportunities for domestic battery is still the key is to export products to the appropriate adjustments in the structure, development of new applications and markets, appropriate reduction in the relatively intense price competition, exports, and increase R & D costs, in the product innovative technology, improve product quality and technical content, to improve battery energy density and safety of environmental performance, reduce manufacturing costs, but also to circumvent an important means of foreign technical barriers to trade.
