South America: Leveraging Natural Resources & Regional Integration Semi-Automatic Battery Pack Line

South America: Leveraging Natural Resources & Regional Integration

South American countries are focusing on leveraging their vast lithium and copper reserves, fostering regional EV markets through trade agreements, and improving energy reliability. Our line supports this value-addition and industrial development.

• Project Case 1: Brazil

  • Background & Need: A Brazilian consortium of mining and automotive companies aims to locally produce battery packs for electric buses in São Paulo, aligning with the Rota 2030 national mobility plan and high import taxes on finished goods to encourage local production.

  • Our Solution & Purpose: Installation of two high-throughput lines. The high efficiency of the up/down circulation line is crucial for meeting the public transport sector's scale demands while keeping costs manageable.

  • Installation Outcome & Advice: The project established the first large-scale, local EV battery assembly hub, reducing bus costs by 22% and creating skilled jobs. Project Advice: Emphasize the line's robustness and low maintenance requirements to cope with local industrial conditions. Its modular design also allows for sourcing some components locally, further increasing the project's regional value-add.

• Project Case 2: Chile

  • Background & Need: A Chilean lithium producer seeks to move beyond raw material export by establishing a pilot plant to produce standardized battery modules for export to regional markets, supported by the National Lithium Strategy.

  • Our Solution & Purpose: Installation of one pilot line for module (not full pack) production. The line's customizable parameters allow it to be tuned for the specific cell chemistry derived from Chilean lithium.

  • Installation Outcome & Advice: The pilot plant successfully produced high-quality modules, attracting partnership interest from Asian and North American cell manufacturers. Project Advice: Use the semi-automatic line as a technology demonstration and workforce training platform. Its operational data is invaluable for proving product quality to potential international partners and investors, de-risking future full-scale investments.

• Project Case 3: Argentina

  • Background & Need: An Argentine agri-tech company needs to produce robust battery packs to power electric tractors and irrigation systems in remote agricultural areas, supporting national policies for rural development and import substitution.

  • Our Solution & Purpose: Installation of one line focused on producing extremely durable and serviceable PACKs. The man-machine combination design allows for manual quality oversight where automation faces challenges with varying dust and humidity conditions.

  • Installation Outcome & Advice: Farmers gained access to reliable, locally serviced electric machinery, reducing diesel dependence. Project Advice: The line's simplicity and ease of maintenance are its greatest assets in this context. Training local technicians to operate and maintain it builds long-term regional capability and trust in the technology.

• Project Case 4: Colombia

  • Background & Need: To tackle urban air pollution, Bogotá's city transport agency is converting its massive bus fleet to electric. It needs a local facility for final pack assembly and, crucially, lifetime maintenance and repacking.

  • Our Solution & Purpose: Installation of one assembly line and a separate, smaller re-pack/disassembly line using identical core units. The GN bad discharge mechanism is vital for safe maintenance operations.

  • Installation Outcome & Advice: The city secured a long-term, cost-effective solution for fleet electrification, ensuring operational independence. Project Advice: A semi-automatic line is perfect for the dual role of assembly and refurbishment. It provides the technical control needed over the fleet's most critical and expensive component for decades, making the total cost of ownership predictable.

• Project Case 5: Peru

  • Background & Need: Mining companies in the Andes need to adopt electric vehicles and ESS for underground operations to improve air quality and meet stricter environmental regulations, but require solutions that can be deployed and maintained at high-altitude sites.

  • Our Solution & Purpose: Installation of several containerized, compact production and repair stations near major mines. The line's modularization allows it to be split into functional units that fit into shipping containers for easy transport and deployment.

  • Installation Outcome & Advice: Mines reduced underground ventilation costs and diesel-related emissions significantly. Project Advice: The containerized, modular solution is a game-changer for remote industrial applications. It turns a capital equipment purchase into a portable "service" that can be relocated as needed, offering exceptional flexibility and ROI for the extractive sector.
