The development of intelligent manufacturing technology will better Lithium Battery Industry.

SHANGHAI, Nov.6 (SMM) - With the persistent and rapid development of new energy car industry in China, power batteries, as a core component, become a battlefield for numerous enterprises which aim to have products which are cost-effective, of high quality and excellent performance. It requires the intelligent manufacturing technology to be more efficient and competent. According to a number of battery manufacturing enterprises, they have upgraded their intelligent manufacturing technology at an obviously faster pace.

Han Wendong, general manager of Zhengzhou BAK battery, said to the reporter that the effect of relevant technology will be a driving force within the industry. Powerful companies will gradually stop using equipments with low efficiency. “Once the trend emerges, it will raise the access threshold of Lithium battery industry by beating companies with poor technology, low-quality products and low capacity. It will help standardize the development of the industry in China and make it more stable and healthy. The standardization of the battery industry will boost the development of new energy car industry.”

Magnesium Plant Maintenance Drags Weekly Output; Strong Supply and Weak Demand Sustain Inventory Buildup [SMM Magnesium Weekly Data]
[Magnesium Plant Maintenance Dragged Down Weekly Output, Supply Strong and Demand Weak with Continuous Inventory Buildup] This week, the magnesium ingot market in the main production areas retreated after a rapid rise. At the beginning of the week, maintenance positives supported prices, but high downstream inventories and fear of high prices suppressed transactions, with some producers offering discounts to sell, putting magnesium prices under pressure and causing them to weaken. Tianjin port FOB prices passively followed the decline in China’s EXW prices, as sluggish demand during the summer break outside China and elevated ocean freight rates suppressed deals. Dolomite prices were stable, providing limited cost support. Magnesium powder and magnesium alloy prices first declined and then stabilized, following the trend of magnesium ingot. Downstream sectors such as steel mill desulfurization, titanium sponge, and die-casting enterprises entered the off-season, with transactions remaining sluggish, leaving the oversupply pattern unchanged. In the short term, the magnesium market will continue to move sideways.
