Why CT Scanning is Ideal for
Non-Lithium Battery Inspection

  • Detect voids, cracks, or misalignment: traditional inspection methods are time-consuming, destructive, and limited in their ability to visualize internal defects
  • Verify internal component placement: One scan gets you all the data you need without cutting open or damaging the battery
  • Identify early-stage swelling, electrolyte leaks, and weld defects: Get your quality team ahead of costly reworks or recalls
  • Quality control, R&D, and supplier validation: Share insights with your whole team, simultaneously across departments

Alkaline Battery CT Scanning for Consumer Product Quality Control

Alkaline batteries power countless household and industrial products. Combine large-scale manufacturing quality assurance with industrial CT scanning for:

  • Defect detection: AA, AAA, C, D, and 9V cells
  • Cross-section imaging: Separators and electrode materials
  • Verification of electrolyte distribution
  • Root cause analysis: consumer product returns

CT Scans for Zinc-Air Batteries in Medical and Specialty Devices

Zinc-air batteries are often used in small devices like hearing aids, specialty electronics, or other medical devices. The vital nature of these precision instruments requires industrial CT scanning inspection.

  • Inspect air hole alignment and seal integrity
  • Verify zinc anode pellet placement and separator stability
  • Detect micro-cracks or leakage points in the casing
  • Perform post-failure analysis on prematurely discharged units

Non-Destructive Testing for NiMH
and NiCd Batteries

Nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) and nickel-cadmium (NiCd) batteries remain widely used in power tools, emergency lighting, aerospace legacy systems, and industrial electronics. Common applications include power tool OEMs, aerospace maintenance programs, and industrial backup systems.

  • Examine weld and tab quality to prevent resistance buildup
  • Identify electrode winding inaccuracies or material folds
  • Detect early-stage electrolyte leaks before visible swelling
  • Validate batch consistency in rechargeable cell manufacturing
