[Hongke Solutions] The “Black Box” of Logistics and Transportation: How Do Impact Recorders Ensure the Safety of New Energy Batteries During Long-Distance Ocean Shipping?

Case Overview

  • Client Partners: Shengweino International Freight Forwarding (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
  • Product Applications: Hongke ASPION G-Log 2 Impact Data Logger
  • Application Scenarios: End-to-End Environmental Monitoring of Cross-Border Ocean Freight for Lithium-Ion Energy Storage Battery Containers

01 | Application Background

With the rapid development of the global new energy vehicle and energy storage industries, demand for the long-distance cross-border transportation of lithium-ion batteries continues to surge. As a professional freight forwarding service provider, Shengweino International handles cross-border logistics services connecting leading battery manufacturers such as CATL with end customers like NHOA Energy.

Although the freight forwarding team has developed a comprehensive logistics plan and prepared all necessary compliance documents, the cargo still faces numerous uncontrollable environmental risks during the lengthy ocean transport process. For end customers, being able to monitor the actual condition of lithium-ion batteries in real time and with precision during long-distance transport has become a critical issue for ensuring supply chain security.

02 | The Three Key Risks Associated with the Long-Distance Transportation of Lithium-Ion Batteries

  • Mechanical Shock and Vibration: During the transfer between ocean and land transport, if a container is subjected to severe impacts or prolonged vibration, it is highly likely to cause damage to the battery’s internal structure, short circuits in the electrodes, or cracks in the casing.
  • Extreme Temperatures and Thermal Runaway: Excessively high ambient temperatures during transport or heat buildup inside the container may trigger thermal runaway in lithium-ion batteries, leading to serious safety incidents such as fires or even explosions.
  • High Humidity and Condensation Corrosion: During long-term maritime voyages, the high-humidity environment can easily cause condensation to form inside the enclosure, leading to corrosion and short circuits in battery terminals and electronic components, which severely affects product performance and service life.

03 | Hongke ASPION G-Log 2 Impact Recorder—Bringing Comprehensive Transparency to Transportation Data

To monitor the actual condition of the batteries during transport, the customer has installed Hongke ASPION G-Log 2 shock recorders in each energy storage container. The devices record key environmental parameters throughout the transport process. The resulting data can be used for risk management, quality control, and subsequent accident analysis.

1. Impact Monitoring—Records impact intensity to assist in determining liability

The Hongke ASPION G-Log 2 can record impact intensity (G-force), direction, and duration. If a drop or severe vibration occurs during transport, the device can detect the abnormal event and save the relevant data. Teams can use the time and impact data to further identify the specific stage of the transport process where the anomaly occurred. Recording complete impact data helps evaluate transport conditions and conduct accident investigations. The data can also serve as a reference for transport compliance and quality management.

2. Temperature Monitoring—Continuously Monitoring the Transport Environment

The device continuously records the ambient temperature during transport. When the temperature exceeds a preset threshold, the system logs the corresponding anomaly. Based on the temperature data, it is possible to determine whether the battery was ever exposed to high or low temperatures. If abnormal temperatures are detected, the team can trace the specific time of the event to further analyze the source of the problem.

3. Humidity Monitoring—Identifying Potential Corrosion Risks

The Hongke ASPION G-Log 2 can simultaneously record changes in humidity during transport. Based on this data, it is possible to determine whether the cargo was ever exposed to high humidity or condensation. These records can be used to assess the effectiveness of corrosion protection for lithium-ion batteries. They also provide data to support subsequent quality and warranty risk assessments.

04 | Case Study Summary and Core Values

  • Quickly Identify Abnormal Events: Accurately records the times and transportation stages associated with abnormal impacts, temperatures, and humidity levels, providing a basis for subsequent accident investigations and the determination of liability.
  • Complete Track Record of Transportation: Synchronously integrate multi-dimensional environmental data—including shock, temperature, and humidity—to establish an objective and comprehensive historical record of transportation conditions throughout the entire process.
  • Quickly Generate Professional Reports: Using the accompanying PC software or mobile app, you can quickly generate standardized shipping reports with a single click, significantly improving efficiency in data retention, anomaly review, insurance claims processing, and quality tracking.
