Summary
A technical job that uses various testing devices to inspect the appearance and performance of battery products to ensure quality.
Description
Battery inspectors work on manufacturing lines or in inspection rooms, performing appearance inspections and performance tests on battery products such as lithium-ion batteries to prevent defective products from being released. They operate and calibrate testing equipment (capacity testers, internal resistance meters, insulation resistance meters, etc.), record and analyze measurement data. If abnormalities or appearance defects are found, they classify and report them according to judgment criteria and may also propose quality improvements. In recent years, the introduction of automatic inspection devices has advanced, requiring knowledge of device operation, maintenance, and simple programming. Team collaboration and adherence to quality manuals are essential.
Future Outlook
With the expanding demand for batteries in electric vehicles and renewable energy storage, the demand for battery inspectors is expected to remain stable. The introduction of automation and AI inspection technologies will advance, requiring enhanced skills in device operation and data analysis.
