Making of a Car Battery
STEP 1: Grid Creation
Molten lead + additives are poured into an empty cavity (mold) that is shaped like the grid. The lead cools down and solidifies to form the grid.
STEP 2: Oxide Pasting
The paste is usually made up of powdered Red Lead or Litharge, or a mixture of the two. Diluted sulphuric acid and other additives are put in to it to create the paste.
STEP 3: Enveloping
The pasted plates are now ready to be stacked in an alternating manner (positive, negative, positive, negative) to start to form the structure of the cell. However, each plate is covered with an envelope or separator, rather than being left bare.
STEP 4: Boxing
The tubs which hold the cells are made out of a tough plastic compound. Each tub has 6 individual compartments for each 2V cell group. The cells are placed in these tubs manually.
STEP 5: Lid Sealing
The plastic lid is manually placed on top of the tub, before a machine automatically heat-seals the whole shell together.
STEP 6: Filling
The batteries are then transported to another section of the factory where they are filled with acid
STEP 7: Charging
The batteries are charged from 14-40 hours in charging tanks. To keep temperatures in check, the machines are filled with water, and the sensors ensure that power is cut off when the units become too hot.
STEP 8: Packing & Dispatch
A final check for leaks and short circuits is conducted, All batteries are stored in batches and dispatched using the FIFO method, to ensure the stock is always fresh.
