The new standard for battery cell quality
Applications
crino provides solutions for non-destructive battery analysis. Combining our innovative hardware with artificial intelligence and in-depth battery knowledge we assess the quality, performance and behavior of battery cells. Our analysis leads to a deep understanding of the battery cell. Our customers are able to reduce the risk of unsafe battery cells, reduce their time to market and avoid costly product recalls.
R&D
Learn more
Heat flow measurements will provide insights during battery cell development. For example, a direct measurement of the heat flow due to parasitic reactions can help to identify material combinations, which are most effective.
Cell production
Learn more
Our technology allows cell manufacturers to reduce production time and costs drastically. A thermal self-discharge test, which can provide accurate results in less than 24 hours, can replace aging and voltage-based self-discharge tests, which usually take several days.
Incoming goods inspection
Learn more
Today, incoming goods inspection is limited to voltage and impedance tests, which do not provide a comprehensive quality assessment. Our technology allows a direct measurement of the self-discharge rate and an accurate estimation of the future cell performance.
Solutions
Self discharge testing for large format Lithium Ion Cells
Standalone Devices
High accuracy thermal self discharge testers for large format lithium ion cells. Scalable number of independent measurement channels (up to 30 parallel channels).

Our technology
Calorimetry for large format
Lithium Ion Batteries
Our technology allows to apply advanced calorimetry to large format Lithium Ion battery cells. Using our sensors (patent pending) allows to measure the heat generated by battery cells with an accuracy of 100µW while being highly cost-efficient and scalable. We use AI based algorithms to interpret the measured data and grade the quality and performance of the battery cells.
