More power in less space, at less cost

Maximize throughput

Battery Formation and Test (BFT) OEMs need to maximize their throughput without expanding their existing equipment footprint to help minimize manufacturing cost increases due to capital equipment and facility expansion investments.

Renewable Energy

Additionally, OEMs also need to recycle as much of the power used in battery formation as possible, making the process as efficient and cost-effective as possible in order to be competitive in the market.

Optimize electricity use to make it more competitive

High efficiency and high power density

The award-winning Vicor patented power modules provide design engineers with high power density solutions with the industry's highest efficiency. Compared to traditional discrete power solutions, Vicor power modules use a modular power delivery approach that requires significantly less space. This allows BFT OEMs to increase battery throughput without increasing the footprint.

Bidirectional flow, energy recovery

Additionally, Vicor power modules allow current to flow in both directions (bidirectional), making it easy to recover energy used in the battery charging process. The recovered energy can be used in different battery cells, other manufacturing processes, or sent back to the grid, further saving costs.

Power supply network

The Vicor family of BCM bus converter modules can convert 800V to 48V input with various K factors to suit a variety of applications and markets. For example, the BCM6123 product is critical in the battery formation and test PDN process because of its high-density, bidirectional, high-efficiency isolation characteristics. In addition, the BCM6123 bus converter module also provides 48, 24 and 12V output voltage options to increase design flexibility. When matched with a high-efficiency ZVS buck regulator , Vicor offers a large number of wide voltage range input DC-DC converters to meet different specifications of battery pack applications compared to traditional 12V to 2.5V voltage conversion.
