Lithium ion battery testing and lithium battery testing are crucial for creating safe and dependable batteries. Our staff at MCM has years of experience assisting manufacturers in making sure that each lithium battery satisfies exacting performance and safety requirements. We offer a wide range of testing services that ensure quality and compliance for international markets, from assessing batteries for consumer devices to traction batteries for electric cars.
Understanding the Core Procedures of Lithium Battery Testing
Testing a lithium battery involves several critical steps that assess both safety and functionality. At MCM, we perform comprehensive lithium ion battery testing and lithium battery testing to verify aspects such as voltage stability, capacity retention, internal resistance, and overall reliability. We also simulate real-world conditions to ensure the battery performs safely under extreme temperatures, shocks, and vibrations. These evaluations are crucial for identifying potential weaknesses before the battery enters the market, preventing failures, and ensuring consumer safety.
Key Standards for Safe Transportation
A major part of our lithium battery testing services focuses on transportation compliance. Lithium batteries must meet international standards to be shipped safely. One of the most widely recognized requirements is the UN38.3 standard. This includes a series of tests designed to simulate conditions batteries may experience during transport:
Altitude Simulation – Ensures batteries maintain stability at high altitudes.
Thermal Test – Evaluates battery performance under extreme heat and cold.
Vibration & Shock – Test durability against movement and impacts.
External Short Circuit, Impact, Overcharge, and Forced Discharge – Assesses the battery’s resistance to electrical and physical stress.
Additionally, we may conduct specialized tests such as the 2-meter drop test and 3-meter stacking test, which further verify battery integrity during handling and air shipment. Completing these tests and documenting the results is essential to obtaining official transportation certificates and complying with global shipping regulations.
Documentation and Certification for Compliance
Testing is only part of the process. At MCM, we also provide support for obtaining all necessary documentation to ensure your lithium batteries are compliant with international standards. This includes:
Test Reports & Summaries – Validating that batteries pass safety and performance tests.
2m Drop Test & 3m Stacking Reports – Demonstrating physical durability.
Transportation Certificates – Certifying that batteries meet global shipping regulations.
MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) – Ensuring proper handling and safety information is available.
Our advanced lithium ion battery testers guarantee precise measurements, providing manufacturers and regulators with reliable, verifiable data for every batch of batteries.
Conclusion
Proper lithium ion battery testing and lithium battery testing are critical for producing safe, durable, and globally compliant batteries. At MCM, we combine technical expertise, advanced testing equipment, and deep knowledge of international standards to support manufacturers throughout the testing and certification process. With our guidance, you can confidently ensure regulatory compliance, accelerate product launch, and safely deliver lithium batteries to markets worldwide. Partnering with MCM means choosing a trusted team committed to quality, safety, and reliability at every step of the lithium battery lifecycle.
