Battery Discharging and Battery Recycling Diagnosis App

12/18/2025

The Battery Discharging and Battery Recycling Diagnosis App by Bosch Rexroth provides intelligent diagnosis, precise control, and comprehensive monitoring for efficient and safe electric vehicle (EV) battery recycling processes. Tailored for industrial applications, this app manages the critical deep discharge procedure, ensuring reliability and process transparency. It supports the recognition and removal of overheated batteries, as well as recipe management, visualization, and logging, all crucial components for the operation of a partially or fully automated battery discharge system.



Key Features & Benefits

  • Safe & Fast Deep Discharge: Enables safe and fast (deep) discharge of batteries down to 0 V for cells, modules, and battery packs.

  • Comprehensive Thermal Management: Provides thermal diagnosis of batteries before, during, and after discharge, supporting recognition and removal of overheated batteries.

  • Intelligent Process Control & Monitoring: Offers monitored and controlled high-speed discharge and deactivation, including precise control of deactivation by internal short circuit and diagnosis/monitoring of current and discharge curves.

  • Flexible Recipe Management: Facilitates creation and management of discharge curves (recipes) incl. plausibility check and provides recipe management, visualization, and logging as part of automated battery discharge operations.

  • Seamless Integration & Automation: Enables efficient partially and fully automated system concepts through an open real-time Linux system for easy integration into other systems, with fast measurement recording and control < 3 ms.
