COENG 7-Channel Automatic Pouch Cell Sorting Machine
The COENG pouch cell sorting machine automates loading, testing, code scanning, and sorting for polymer
lithium battery production. With seven sorting channels and a rated
output of up to 1,000 cells per hour, it helps manufacturers reduce manual handling and organize cell
sorting within their battery production workflow.
PLC control coordinates machine operation, while an MES interface,
QR code records, and test data recording support battery cell
traceability. The system also provides SPC analysis reports for
production quality review.
Automated Sorting for Polymer Pouch Cells
Designed for polymer pouch cells, this automatic battery cell
sorter combines multiple operations within one machine. Integrated
loading, testing, scanning, and sorting reduce the need for
separate manual steps.
The equipment includes an internal resistance tester to support
cell evaluation during the sorting process. Test ranges,
measurement accuracy, and sorting thresholds should be confirmed
against your cell specifications and quality requirements.
Up to 1,000 Cells per Hour
The COENG 7-channel pouch cell sorting machine offers a rated
sorting speed of up to 1,000 cells per hour per unit.
For production engineers planning battery manufacturing automation,
this provides a throughput reference for line balancing and
equipment selection. Actual output depends on cell specifications,
test settings, material supply, and operating conditions.
Compatibility with Different Pouch Cell Sizes
The machine accommodates polymer lithium batteries within the
following dimensional ranges:
| Cell Dimension | Supported Range |
|---|
| Length | 50–170 mm |
| Width | 20–100 mm |
| Thickness | 4–20 mm |
Before configuration, provide the cell drawing, tab dimensions, and
tab arrangement for compatibility assessment. Cell size and
electrode tab geometry should both be considered when confirming
the feeding, handling, and testing setup.
Code Scanning and Production Data Traceability
Battery quality control requires a clear connection between cell
identification and test results. The COENG system supports
real-time recording of QR codes and test data, helping production
teams maintain traceable sorting records.
An MES interface supports manufacturing system integration, while
SPC analysis reports help teams review process data and monitor
variation.
MES communication protocols, required data fields, and integration
scope should be agreed upon during technical evaluation.
PLC Control and Industrial Machine Construction
The machine combines a metal frame platform, pneumatic components,
servo motors, sensors, a PLC controller, and an industrial
computer.
Its configuration includes:
- XINJIE PLC controller and servo motor
- JIANO industrial computer
- HEPU internal resistance tester
- Integrated code scanning unit
- Metal base with an aluminum profile upper frame
These components support coordinated handling, testing, and sorting
operations. Detailed component models and final configuration can
be reviewed during procurement.

Applications in Battery Manufacturing
This polymer lithium battery sorting machine is intended for pouch
cell production and sorting workflows associated with consumer
electronics batteries, power batteries, and energy storage
batteries, subject to cell compatibility.
It is relevant to:
- Battery manufacturers introducing automated cell sorting
- Battery pack assemblers assessing cells before downstream assembly
- Production line integrators specifying battery manufacturing
equipment
- Equipment importers sourcing pouch cell sorting systems
Selection should be based on the required tests, cell dimensions,
throughput, sorting criteria, and factory integration needs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of batteries can this machine sort?
The machine is designed for polymer lithium pouch cells within a
length range of 50–170 mm, width range of 20–100 mm, and thickness
range of 4–20 mm. Tab geometry and handling requirements must also
be checked.
Does seven-channel sorting mean seven cells are tested
simultaneously?
The seven-channel designation refers to the machine's sorting
configuration. It does not establish the number of simultaneous
testing positions. Confirm the channel allocation, including any
reject channel, during technical evaluation.
Does the machine support internal resistance testing?
The listed configuration includes a HEPU internal resistance
tester. Its model, measurement range, accuracy, and test conditions
should be confirmed for your application.
Can the sorter connect to a factory MES?
The machine provides an MES interface and supports QR code and test
data recording. Communication protocols and integration
requirements should be reviewed with your engineering team.
Does the equipment measure battery capacity?
Capacity testing is not specified in the provided configuration. If
your process requires charge-discharge capacity grading, include
that requirement in the inquiry for separate assessment.
What information is needed for a quotation?
Provide your cell drawing, tab arrangement, required hourly output,
test requirements, sorting criteria, site power supply, and MES
integration needs.
