Chinese motive power solutions provider RoyPow has launched a dedicated, USD1 million fully automated forklift battery module production line at its Guizhou head office in Guangdong Province.

The new lithium battery module production line means RoyPow now operates 13 production lines across a 75,000 sqm facility. These include three fully automated module lines, one high-precision fully automated SMT line, one AGV automated line, five semi-automated assembly lines, two semi-automated module lines and one selective wave soldering line. 

RoyPow says it now has total production capacity of 8 kWh annually.

A new overseas production factory is currently in the planning stages which will provide RoyPow with a further six production lines and an additional 2 kWh of production capacity each year.

RoyPow’s director of engineering Jianshan Xie says: "We are excited about introducing this new production line, which is part of our strategy to continuously innovate and strengthen our manufacturing capabilities”.
