The "Wireless Charging Power Supply System" helps reduce the labor involved in battery charging and ensures safety on-site. Traditionally, charging a battery required connecting contacts such as connectors or removing the battery for charging, which was cumbersome. With a wireless charging system, you only need to align the heads. For example, with an AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle), it is possible to perform supplementary charging while loading and unloading cargo by aligning the heads. There are charging systems specifically for 24V lead-acid batteries with a capacity of 30A7V, which are frequently inquired about for AGV charging, as well as a collaborative product with Maxell, a charging system specifically for 28.9V1A Maxell lithium-ion secondary batteries. When used on a transport line, it allows for flexible design. 【Benefits of Wireless Charging】 ■ Achieves wireless charging of up to 210W ■ Wireless charging for lead-acid or lithium-ion batteries by simply aligning the heads ■ No risk of electric shock even if the heads are touched, as it is wireless ■ The heads have an IP65 protection structure *For more details, please feel free to contact us.
