In 2024, the global power battery loading capacity reached 548.4GWh, and the application demand for part aligner machines in pole piece sorting and module stacking surged. The silicon steel sheet part aligner machine achieves high-precision stacking through multi-axis collaborative control, improving motor energy efficiency; the IGBT module alignment relies on dynamic attitude adjustment technology to meet the needs of new energy vehicles for miniaturization and high efficiency of electronic control systems.
The alignment of complex parts such as crankshafts and gears depends on high-precision positioning technology. The horizontal repeat positioning accuracy of AngleRun part aligner machine is ≤ 0.1mm, which can replace manual sorting and solve the problems of low efficiency and large error of traditional vibrating plates.
Policy support has accelerated market expansion. China’s “Work Plan for Stabilizing Growth in the Machinery Industry (2023 – 2024)” has included part aligner machines in the key support category. Places such as Yuci, Jinzhong, Shanxi Province provide a 15% subsidy on the equipment investment for enterprises that introduce part aligner machines. Policies related to new energy vehicles (such as purchase tax reduction and exemption, and dual credit system) have further stimulated the demand for part aligner machines. It is expected that the market size of part aligner machines in the automotive field will exceed 5 billion yuan by 2025.
The cost – effectiveness and investment return are significant. Although the unit price of high – end part aligner machines exceeds one million yuan, the long – term benefits are prominent. For example, after a connector manufacturer introduced the equipment, the labor cost dropped from 280,000 yuan/month to 50,000 yuan/month, and the investment cost was recovered in 6 months.
The penetration rate of new energy passenger vehicles reached 47.6% in 2024, and it is expected that the global proportion of new energy vehicles will exceed 50% by 2030. The application of part aligner machines in core links such as batteries and motors will become a growth engine. For instance, the market size of power battery alignment equipment is expected to exceed 2 billion yuan by 2025.
The development prospect of part aligner machines in the automotive field is characterized by high – end technology, diversified application scenarios and globalized market. With the improvement of new energy vehicle penetration and the upgrading of intelligent manufacturing, part aligner machines will transform from “replacing manual labor” to “empowering manufacturing” and become the core equipment for the intelligent transformation of the automotive industry chain.
