BYD Application
“Energy for Lithium” — Leadcom Empowers BYD Lithium Battery Industry
Shenzhen BYD was originally established to produce more environmentally friendly rechargeable batteries—nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries—to replace disposable batteries, dry-cell batteries, and nickel-cadmium batteries.
Over the years, BYD has developed into a well-recognized laminated battery manufacturer both domestically and internationally. Its applications have expanded across a wide range of industries, including drones, RC models, agricultural plant protection, sports cars, automotive components, medical devices, outdoor equipment, marine applications, military industry, industrial equipment, wearable devices, AR/VR, and consumer electronics.
Leadcom is proud to support the development of the lithium battery industry with advanced compressed air solutions, contributing to efficient, stable, and energy-saving production environments.
Energy-Saving Retrofit for Lithium Battery Manufacturing Industry
In June 2021, the Leadcom team received a request for the retrofit of the customer’s compressed air station. The client aimed to upgrade the original decentralized pipeline system into a centralized air supply system, while achieving an energy efficiency improvement of over 30% after the retrofit.
After receiving the project requirements, Leadcom conducted on-site measurements and a comprehensive survey, and then developed a customized compressed air system solution for the customer.
Customer-Centric Approach: Energy-Efficient Solutions Supporting Scientific Carbon Reduction
In lithium battery manufacturing plants, air compressors are widely used in various production processes, including casting ejection, pneumatic forming, solution mixing, chip conveying, air blowing and cleaning, driving packaging presses, lifting machines and elevators, pneumatic tools, sandblasting, painting and coating, among others.
Based on the customer’s actual production demand at the time, Leadcom’s technical team determined through system monitoring that an air demand of 11 m³/min was sufficient to meet peak production requirements.
To support the customer’s carbon reduction goals, Leadcom recommended a customized two-stage compression permanent magnet variable speed air compressor system. Compared with the previous fixed-speed compressor units, the new solution achieved nearly 40% energy savings. In addition, maintenance costs were significantly reduced, and the equipment inspection and management process was simplified.
With years of stable and reliable operation and convenient service support, Leadcom’s solutions have earned strong trust and recognition from the customer.
Further Expansion in 2023
In November 2023, the lithium battery manufacturer underwent another production upgrade. Once again, they chose Leadcom as their trusted partner.
The new system includes:
- 7 sets of C75T heavy-duty oil-cooled permanent magnet air compressors
- 3 sets of G2-132PM series air compressors
These systems continue to support the customer’s lithium battery production with improved efficiency and stability.
Customized Solutions for Extreme Applications
Leadcom remains committed to technological innovation and long-term cooperation with partners in the new energy industry. The company continues to expand its energy-efficient compressor product range and upgrade capabilities, fulfilling its commitment to industrial energy conservation and emission reduction.
In the context of a new era of sustainable development, Leadcom leads by example as a responsible industry benchmark, driving a more sustainable future.
