 Easing the Burden for Researchers! AOAO Lab Resolves the Minor Pain Points in Lithium & Sodium Battery Experiments

Most frustrations encountered by electrochemistry research groups lie outside the core research itself.

Researchers may successfully synthesize new materials, only to find uneven thickness after electrode calendering, or wrinkling of lithium metal foil during rolling. Even after cell sealing, inconsistent experimental data often arises because equipment and consumables are sourced from different suppliers, bringing months of trials to a standstill.

The technical team at Xiamen AOAO Lab receives similar complaints almost every day.

Instead of only selling standalone machines such as roller presses, coating machines, vacuum sealing machines and spot welders, the company has built a complete workflow for coin cell lab-scale testing.

The full set of equipment, including electrode rolling machines, die cutters, glove boxes, vacuum chambers and battery capacity testers, can be supplied as an integrated production line. Meanwhile, all consumables including lithium metal foil, sodium metal sheet, battery Electrolyte, separator and coin cell cases are available from the same supplier with well-matched specifications.

Most R&D staff have experienced this trouble: placing separate orders with multiple vendors, repeatedly verifying dimensions and parameters, and spending extra time debugging compatibility after delivery. When soft lithium and sodium anodes suffer high rejection rates during rolling and cutting, the cost of these high-priced raw materials rises sharply.

To address these practical problems, AOAO has upgraded the pressure control system of roller presses and improved die-cutting precision, drastically cutting the scrap rate of thin metal sheets and helping research groups greatly reduce spending on consumables.

Now numerous university laboratories and solid-state battery startups choose to adopt this integrated one-stop solution. There is no need to waste time negotiating with dozens of suppliers. The whole process from electrode preparation and cell sealing to performance testing runs smoothly, which significantly improves the repeatability of experiments. Researchers can finally focus more on new material development rather than repeatedly debugging equipment and matching materials.

Backed by the robust new energy industrial cluster in Xiamen, AOAO Lab keeps collecting real feedback from frontline experimenters to refine equipment details and expand the range of consumables. Rather than simply selling hardware, the team aims to act as a reliable support partner for research teams, removing all kinds of obstacles along the lab-scale battery testing journey.
