QUALITY TESTING

ABM performs a series of tests on the battery to check for any imperfections or
irregularities. This includes:

  • 01  Reverse testing

  • 02  Short circuit testing- If there’s an issue, the system itself will kick the battery out

  • 03  Total Quality Management (TQM)

  • 04  Sheer testing- The quality of the weld is tested and a tag is placed if the test is passed

  • 05  Heat sealing - The lid and container are heated then fixed together

  • 06  Leak testing - The battery is tested for leakages

  • 07 Serializing - The battery is given a serial number for traceability
