Galaxy Power QuickForm Dramatically Improves Productivity of Battery Manufacturing Process in Side by Side Experiment.

Galaxy QuickForm Pulse Charge/Termination technology shows 30 to 40 percent productivity gains in the battery manufacturing process. This equates to definable returns on investment and improved utilization of legacy capital.

Valley Forge, PA (PRWEB) September 2, 2003 -- Galaxy Power is the leading provider of patented pulsed battery formation technology. Patented pulse conditioning, charging and termination is available in Galaxy's QuickSaver Product line. QuickForm is the extension of the QuickSaver product line and is used in battery formation/manufacturing.

QuickForm is revolutionary. Prior to QuickForm a product like this was not available to battery manufacturers. It has been needed for a long time. QuickForm Quickly and precisely forms batteries. Why is this important? With QuickForm battery manufactureres know precisely when a battery is fully formed. QuickForm uses information as in Galaxy's QuickSaver products to monitor the battery through out th formation process. Standard forming is based on time and most often does little or no monitoring of the battery.

QuicForm was used in a controled experiment. The experiment formed a stationary flooded lead acid 50 Ah 6 volt battery in 30% less time using 30% less energy while at the same time lowering the battery's peak temperature by 5 degrees F yielding over 5% more capacity. Galaxy Power's QuickForm algorthims for newly assembled batteries save battery manufactureres time, energy and floor space producing higher quality batteries and yields.

Galaxy Power has developed a new power control module containing patented and proprietary software that sustantially improves the cycle time and cost of battery formation. Comparded to existing trickle charge technology the recent experiment showed:

Shortend Cycle time by 30%
Reduced Electrical Consupmtion by more then 30%
Consistently maximized the charge density of each battery cell.
Reduced total formation heat generation by 40%

The benefits to the battery manufacturer result in lower cost of goods and an improved internal rate of return on capital investment. In addition there is a signficant productivity gain. Note the following:

40% increse in throughput from the same equipment
30% decrese in electricity costs and labor
30% decrease in "in process inventory"
40% decrese in cooling costs
Deferral of capital expansions for capacity reasons
Improvment in product yield and consistency

QuickForm creates a condition that favors superior plate surface morphology. It minimizes the reaction conditions that cause hydrolysis and polarizes reactions that generate heat. The result is a battery that is formed and charged quickly with less heat generation.

QucikForm algorithms are available for all battery chemistries. Automobile, cellphone, portable tool, laptop PC, portable appliance, manufurers should ask their suppliers for QuickFormed batteries. Why? It is a market differentiator that provides the hard competitive edge they've been looking for. For example due to high growth in the mobile electronic device market, battery manufacturers are under tremendous pressure to produce better, longer lasting, lower cost batteries. Galaxy Power has the tools to add value and margin to this demanding marketplace.
