On November 26-29, 2024, FinDreams Battery debuted at Shanghai bauma CHINA Construction Machinery Exhibition and held the theme conference of "Start, that is, peak" simultaneously, attracting wide attention from the industry. Three disruptive battery products have been launched in the field of construction machinery, which are integrated battery, super mixed battery and fast charging battery. This initiative not only highlights BYD's leading position in new energy technology but also brings unprecedented innovation opportunities for the construction machinery industry.
At the same time, BYD also announced the latest technological progress of the current battery. According to the information announced by BYD at the press conference, from the 10%-80% charging range, the passenger car can be achieved in 10 minutes, commercial vehicles or construction machinery can be achieved in 15 minutes, while BYD is also developing more powerful charging capabilities, the goal is 6-8 minutes. In terms of battery life, through pre-lithium technology and new electrolyte solution, the battery can be up to 15,000 cycles, if it is fully filled once a day, the life can be up to 40 years, and the battery life is much longer than the vehicle life, based on which customers can be provided with lifetime warranty.
In terms of new batteries, the launch of three new blade construction machinery batteries is eye-catching. They are:
The integrated version is the world's first CTB construction machinery battery, with 320Wh/L ultra-high integration, system cycle life ≥7000 times, can provide 6 years and 35,000 hours of life, meet 6 times the old national standard vibration requirements, can be used in high strength vibration conditions such as crushing. It can work in the ultra-wide temperature range of -40℃ to 65℃ and the ultra-high altitude environment of 5500m. This technology closely integrates the battery with the body structure, which not only improves the energy density of the battery, but also greatly improves the structural strength and safety of the vehicle. This innovative design enables construction machinery to maintain more stable performance under complex conditions, while reducing vehicle weight and improving energy efficiency.
In addition to the highlights of CTB technology, the super-mixed battery is also worth attention. Supermix is the world's first mass-produced supermix engineering machinery battery, optimized for the full temperature range, support the full temperature range of work, even in extreme low temperature environment can maintain good performance. At the same time, it has a 4C charging rate, and 20~80% SOC only takes 10 minutes, which greatly reduces the charging time and improves the operation efficiency of construction machinery. Its main motor can play an excellent performance, achieve low emission, low noise operation effect, greatly reduce environmental pollution, and can effectively save about 30% of operating costs.
The fast charging version is known as the fastest charging pure electric engineering machinery battery so far, and stands out with its excellent fast charging ability. Under the support of 400A large charge and discharge current 1500V high voltage platform, it can quickly recharge to 80% SOC in 15 minutes. This innovation allows the battery to quickly return to operational capability in a short period of time, providing a strong support for engineering tasks requiring rapid response.
FinDreams said that the above three models are all equipped with high-safety lithium iron phosphate(LiFePO4) blade batteries, which are BYD automotive homocyte batteries, which can simultaneously take into account efficient performance and battery safety. The product is presented as a honeycomb sandwich structure, which has undergone rigorous acupuncture experiments, and has the characteristics of super safety, ultra-high life and ultra-long battery life.
BYD FinDreams Battery, a series of technological innovations, has undoubtedly set a new benchmark for the construction machinery industry. At the same time, CATL has also recently released CATL Tianxing heavy truck batteries, covering multiple versions such as super-charged version, long-life version, long-life version and high-strength version, and also targeting heavy trucks, construction machinery and other fields. The head-on confrontation between the two battery giants will undoubtedly intensify market competition and promote the continuous progress of industry technology.
