On 9-10 April the 2025 China Solid-State Battery Technology and Industry Development Summit opened in Suzhou. Organized by Mariana and co-hosted by INFOR and Xinbiao Instruments, with support from the Department of Electrochemical Engineering of Harbin Institute of Technology and the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the summit offered a high-level dialogue combining knowledge and practice.
Under the theme "Technology Breakthroughs, Ecosystem Win-Win", the summit focused on solid-state battery material innovation, process upgrades, intelligent equipment and industrial collaboration, building a platform that links industry, academia, research, users and capital to support the breakthrough and commercialization of solid-state batteries in China.
INFOR's session on the afternoon of 9 April was a highlight. INFOR's senior management presented a series of new products, a dry bead mill, an AI voice-controlled bead mill, single-wall carbon nanotube atmosphere arc furnace equipment and a silicon-anode fluidized bed, bringing new energy to the industry and opening wider prospects for new materials.
The INFOR high-efficiency dry bead mill stands out for five core advantages: proprietary dynamic separation significantly improves grinding efficiency and controls particle size distribution precisely; a built-in high-efficiency cooling system with intelligent thermal management keeps operation stable; capacity reaches up to 1,000 L for large-scale production; an all-ceramic structure prevents product contamination and ensures purity; and the simplified process reduces energy consumption, while its intelligent design raises the efficiency of the whole line.
The INFOR AI voice bead mill brings seven highlights to intelligent operation: AI semantic understanding captures and executes commands accurately; flexible offline/online switching; hands-free operation that greatly improves efficiency; multi-task coordination for complex environments; intelligent noise reduction for a more comfortable workplace; a second-round query when commands are unclear to avoid mistakes; and foolproof design for ease of use and safety.
The single-wall carbon nanotube atmosphere arc furnace shows INFOR's experience in material synthesis through six features: an advanced structure that keeps atmosphere protection effective at high temperature for long-term stable operation; a complete collection system for long, efficient runs; continuous production that makes temperature control easy, lowers energy use and keeps products consistent, with high output, uniform tube diameter and good structural integrity; efficient high-temperature cracking that makes full use of the carbon source; automatic lifting of the plasma torch and easy removal of the furnace lid for simple maintenance; and high-precision temperature control with an intelligent operating system.
The single-wall carbon nanotube CVD system has five features: a furnace body precision-welded from quality 304 stainless steel and profiles, filled with inert gas for full protection; excellent insulation for stable temperature; durable heating elements for long service life; a high degree of automation that reduces manual intervention; and comprehensively optimized safety.
The silicon-anode fluidized bed reflects INFOR's innovation in new energy material processing with six features: fluidized-bed technology ensures full contact between materials and better mass transfer; a high heat transfer coefficient and good particle flow raise thermal efficiency and reaction rate; silicon-carbon co-deposition and carbon post-coating improve storage and release efficiency and cycling stability; high output per unit with low energy consumption suits large-scale production; continuous feeding and discharge raise the continuity of the line; and automatic control reduces labour intensity and manual operation.
All the new products launched by INFOR are protected by its own intellectual property, evidence of the company's capacity to innovate and a guarantee of legal compliance for customers.
The launch marks another major breakthrough for INFOR in solid-state battery equipment and an important contribution to the development of solid-state battery technology and industry in China. We invite you to keep following INFOR as we continue to grow in new energy material processing technology.
