Lithium Battery Solutions for Hospital Delivery Robots
Reliable, Medical-Grade Power Systems for Smart Healthcare Logistics
1. Introduction
Hospital delivery robots are rapidly transforming modern healthcare operations. They autonomously transport
medications, meals, linens, lab samples, and medical supplies across different departments, reducing staff
workload and improving operational efficiency. To achieve smooth, safe, and uninterrupted service within
clinical environments, these robots rely on highly stable and hygienic power systems. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
SHENZHEN PKNERGY ENERGY Co., Ltd. specializes in custom lithium battery solutions designed specifically
for hospital delivery robots, ensuring long runtime, reliability, and medical-grade safety.
2. Application Background
Hospital delivery robots require intelligent power systems capable of supporting continuous movements, elevator
communication, real-time navigation, and wireless connectivity. They operate within strict safety, hygiene,
and reliability requirements. Key technical power demands include:
- Long runtime for full-shift operation (8–20 hours)
- Fast charging for continuous circulation during peak periods
- High discharge current for motor-driven mobility
- Stable voltage for sensors, cameras, LiDAR, and AI processors
- High cycle life for daily multi-shift charging
- Low noise and low-heat operation to meet medical environment standards
- BMS systems compatible with hospital IoT networks
Common challenges include reduced runtime from inferior cells, overheating during long-distance movement,
difficulty integrating large-capacity packs, and communication failure between the robot and the battery system.
PKNERGY resolves these issues with healthcare-grade battery engineering. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
