Jiangsu Nantong Lithium Cathode Powder Closed Conveying Project

In the rapidly evolving lithium battery industry, material handling efficiency and environmental compliance are critical for manufacturers. Headpowder recently completed a closed conveying project for a lithium cathode powder facility in Nantong, Jiangsu, addressing key operational challenges with a tailored solution.

Project Overview

This project was designed for a major cathode material producer in Nantong. The client required a reliable system to transport fine lithium cathode powder from storage to processing areas while minimizing dust emissions and material loss.

Customer Pain Points

Before the upgrade, the client encountered several difficulties:
- Heavy dust leakage during open conveying caused safety hazards and frequent cleaning downtime.
- High material loss due to spillage and airborne particles, increasing production costs.
- Manual handling led to inconsistent flow rates and elevated labor risks.
- Existing equipment struggled with the abrasive and cohesive nature of cathode powders, resulting in frequent blockages and maintenance.

Headpowder Solution Advantages

Headpowder implemented a fully enclosed pneumatic conveying system specifically engineered for lithium cathode powders:
- A sealed pipe network eliminated dust escape, ensuring a clean workshop environment.
- Optimized air pressure and flow control reduced material degradation and achieved over 99.5% material recovery.
- Automated valves and sensors enabled precise batch feeding, cutting labor dependency by 70%.
- Wear-resistant components and anti-clogging design prolonged system uptime and lowered maintenance frequency.

With this solution, the Nantong client now operates a safer, more cost-effective production line that meets strict environmental standards.
