Published: Jul 28, 2026 18:05

SMM, July 28 –

To deepen understanding of the high-end automation equipment manufacturing and technology trends in the motor industry chain, strengthen the foundation for industry surveys, and promote resource integration and collaborative innovation across the industry chain, on the afternoon of July 28, Fan Cui, head of the SMM Motor Business Unit, and her delegation visited Ningbo Niulan Automation Equipment Co., Ltd., where they held discussions with General Manager Li Chongcai and toured the production workshops to observe the operating conditions of full-line automation equipment.

The visit was themed “Focusing on Smart Equipment, Boosting Industry Collaboration.” During the discussion session, General Manager Li Chongcai elaborated on the company’s development layout, R&D system, and core product advantages. Deeply engaged in the field of motor-specific automation and smart equipment for years, the company’s product portfolio covers three major segments: standard standalone machines, non-standard full-line automated production lines, and complete smart detection equipment. This enables intelligent production covering the entire motor manufacturing process, from winding, paper insertion, magnet mounting, pressing, and bobbin assembly to finished-product performance testing and burn-in testing.

After the discussion, accompanied by General Manager Li Chongcai, the SMM survey team visited the production, assembly, and equipment testing workshops, where they closely observed the assembly techniques, debugging processes, and finished-product testing conditions of various motor automation equipment. They gained detailed insights into the operating principles, process advantages, and mass-production stability of multi-station winding equipment, intelligent servo pressing equipment, and fully automatic motor lines, acquiring first-hand knowledge of the latest technology iterations and application capabilities in current motor automation equipment.

Combining discussions and on-site workshop observations, this visit comprehensively enhanced SMM’s frontline understanding of the upstream motor automation and smart equipment sector, further enriching industry survey data and research bases, and laying a solid foundation for subsequent market analysis, trend forecasting, and precise upstream-downstream resource matching.

[SMM Daily Review: Spot Lithium Carbonate Prices Drifted Lower on July 28] SMM battery-grade lithium carbonate spot prices drifted lower from the previous working day. In the futures market, the lithium carbonate 2609 contract opened high at 146,600 yuan/mt today. After the opening, bulls briefly pushed prices, shooting the contract up to 147,700 yuan/mt, before encountering concentrated selling pressure from bears that triggered a rapid plunge. During the morning session, prices kept falling below the average price line (146,600 yuan/mt), hitting a low of 142,000 yuan/mt. Around midday, bulls and bears wrestled repeatedly within the 142,000–144,000 yuan range. In the afternoon, bulls lacked momentum for a rebound; after a brief rise, prices oscillated and pulled back again, then consolidated at lows near 143,500 yuan/mt toward the close. The contract finally closed down 1.75% at 143,500 yuan/mt, with open interest decreasing by 5,649 lots. In the spot market, as prices drifted lower, purchasing sentiment recovered among some downstream material plants that had been on the sidelines, with the sub-145,000 yuan/mt level acting as an anchor for rigid demand purchases. Upstream lithium chemical plants continued to hold prices firm. Overall, market inquiries and actual transactions were relatively active.

Summary of Maintenance Plans of Lithium Carbonate Enterprises, August-September
[Summary of Lithium Carbonate Enterprises' Maintenance Plans, August-September] Recently, several lithium chemical plants in China have successively announced their shutdown maintenance arrangements for the period from August to September. In terms of the reasons for maintenance, they fall mainly into three categories. The first is equipment technological transformation, with a combined impact on production of approximately 3,000 mt. The second is production constraints caused by external power circuit maintenance, with a combined impact on production ranging from 2,000 to 2,500 mt. The third is routine maintenance, with a combined impact of about 4,000 mt in August, of which some production line maintenance will continue into September, expected to result in an impact of about 2,500 mt on September production. Combining the impacts of all types of maintenance, the total affected production in August is approximately 9,000 to 9,500 mt, while in September it is approximately 2,500 mt. Overall, the recent concentrated maintenance will cause a temporary reduction on the supply side. SMM will continue to track the pace and progress of subsequent production resumptions.
