Standard blank laptop batteries lost

Due to the lack of relevant standards, with the result that the quality of laptop batteries brought uneven quality issues encountered in consumer complaints, because there is no relevant test basis, does not solve the problem, there is no standard has also affected the healthy development of the industry as a whole –A Chinese enterprises have the right to speak of the industry standard is brewing: A few days ago, by the National Information Technology Standardization Technical Committee and Suzhou Fuyuan Technology Energy Limited as a unit organized to launch mobile power system standard seminar, Lenovo Group, Founder Technology, Tsinghua Tongfang, Tsinghua Unisplendour and other representatives from domestic enterprises Chatteris, urged their own intellectual property rights of the portable computer industry standard introduced mobile power. The industry standard is intended to break the monopoly of transnational corporations to help Chinese enterprises to participate in international division of a deeper level and collaboration.

As important as CPU power

For notebook computers the mobile office tool, its overall performance with the high and low standby power systems (batteries) inseparable from the performance advantages and disadvantages, because the realization of thinkpad t60 battery is the main support for mobile office one of the conditions, the importance of it in no way Asia in the CPU, graphics cards, hard drives and other components, its performance is a direct impact on the use of portable computers and security.

However, industry analysis, China as the world’s largest producer of battery absolute and absolute demand for big country, standby power systems for portable computers - Battery R & D has been blank. There are two main reasons: one is that notebook vendors insufficient technical reserves, no time to attend; the other is China’s battery manufacturers have long been engaged in only low-end production of the original battery to a battery-sized, secondary rechargeable batteries, especially the size of lithium-ion battery is formed after 2000, mainly mobile phone batteries, such as single-cell-based products only on the lithium battery manufacturing technology and process technology still being explored, the battery manufacturers to do high-end lenovo thinkpd t60 battery used in lithium-ion battery nobody cares about it. Notebook batteries by the OEM, ODM manufacturers for their production of various models of notebook computers supporting separate.

Enterprises paid a high price

Introduced by the representative of the participating enterprises, for a long time, thinkpad t40 battery core technology mainly concentrated in Japan, Taiwan and other manufacturers, such as Japan, SANYO, TOSHIBA, Panasonic, can Taiwan’s Yuan Science and Technology, the new S & P and other enterprises. Statistics show that China’s exports in 2003 the majority of notebook computers is an international large-scale production of transnational corporations, foreign-owned enterprises account for laptop computers 75.99 percent of total exports, the entire three-funded enterprises accounted for 99.77 percent of total exports.

Notebook computers and high industrial concentration and competitive, in order to effectively reduce costs, all notebook brands have taken foundry production patterns, and substituting plant basic monopoly by Taiwan, the Taiwan notebook OEM volume now accounts for global shipments of 70% . Although relying on the OEM, ODM and other mode of development of the notebook computer industry in China has been very large, but the key core technology is still in the hands of the hands of transnational corporations.

Standby power systems research and development gaps and the lack of relevant standards, so that Chinese enterprises have paid a great price. According to participants, representatives of businesses, currently in the Chinese market sales of lenovo thinkpad t61 battery and variable quality, reflected primarily in the standby time is short, life is even shorter. International common standards for the number of battery charging and discharging about 300 around 2003, the majority of sales in our notebook computers, battery charging and discharging of its number of only 70 ~ 120 times. This state of affairs so that our vendors, users suffered a great loss.

Delegates frankly, notebook battery life is also a headache for the manufacturers problem, the general in six months or nine months later, the battery life was significantly shorter, a lot of consumer complaints, the replacement of batteries, manufacturers have to buy high-priced spare parts to the OEM factory ; not replaced, the loss of markets, costly!

Due to the lack of relevant standards, China’s notebook computer manufacturers the lack of imports of standby power systems based on the evaluation, resulting in substandard battery assembly related products to consumers in the complaints do not have the relevant tests to enable the development of relevant industries has been undue losses, limiting the country’s energy industries. In addition, the technological monopoly of foreign manufacturers in the thinkpad t60 battery price monopoly, price has been high, making the cost of China’s notebook computer manufacturers do not fall down, profitability worrisome.

Need to introduce the relevant standards

In recent years, the world’s laptop sales grew nearly 10 percent year after year, China’s notebook computer market is growing by leaps and bounds, more than 30%. It is predicted that China in the next 5 years will usher in the peak consumption period, its growth will remain above 30%, regardless of their size of the market is still room for growth is enormous. Under such circumstances, China introduced the relevant standards notebook power of great significance.

Xuzhou Fuyuan Technology Co., Ltd., general manager of energy said the company is a small number of portable computers have a full picture of the mobile power management and control of core technologies with independent intellectual property rights of businesses. They hope to set up mobile portable computer power supply system (lenovo batteries) Standard Working Group, by virtue of the company has accumulated many years of technology and strong R & D investment and advanced technology of production levels, with domestic companies to work together to contribute to standards promulgated as soon as possible to ensure that China-related companies and the legitimate rights and interests of consumers, breaking the monopoly of foreign trade enterprises to improve China’s enterprises in the industry’s competitiveness.

The participating experts and analysis, there is no current domestic mobile power products(thinkppad x60 battery) for portable computers technical standards, the preparation of standby power portable computers generic technical specifications and standards, will fill in the products of China’s technical standards for gaps and put forward practical guiding significance to the function of technical indicators and Testing operational methods, the international and domestic markets portable computer back-up power products can provide a reference of the standard. The preparation of relevant standards regulating standby power product design, production and use, standardize the market order and improve our country in the portable computer industry’s overall competitiveness, the protection of consumer interests, promote upgrading of the industrial structure of China’s battery available to the general consumer quality products, but also of great significance.
