Sandvik captures more market share in the fast-moving battery-electric mining equipment space with the acquisition of Artisan Vehicle Systems. The core technology behind Artisan’s offering is battery packs, electric motors, power electronics, software, and control systems, according to Sandvik. Artisan is also the market leader with most battery-electric vehicles currently operating in underground mining. A recently published patent application describes Artisan Vehicle's flexible battery module maintenance system.
A battery charge equalizer provides individual cell charging in multi-cell battery strings in order to maintain all the cells at the same charge. Keeping all the cells in a multi-cell string at the same charge state maximizes the battery's life and performance. Equalization techniques require electrical circuitry to achieve cell monitoring and balancing.
