From electric vehicles to cellphones, Lithium-Ion batteries are becoming a larger part of everyday life around the world. Understanding the dangers and safety aspects of handling these types of batteries isn't a major safety focus around the world - and we want to change that. Join us to take a deeper dive into what makes up Lithium-Ion batteries & real-world applications, so we can better understand the need for NDT and better safety practices.
After attending this presentation, attendees will:
- Understand the dangers associated with working with Lithium-Ion batteries.
- Identify the warning signs of a malfunctioning or defective Lithium-Ion battery.
- Apply safe handling and operational procedures when working with Lithium-Ion batteries.
- Explore the role of the Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) industry in the inspection and maintenance of Lithium-Ion batteries.
