What is the right next step for each battery?
For a fleet the question is what the right next step is, technically and economically.
- Fit for use: back into the fleet.
- Small defect: targeted repair.
- Worn cells: cell replacement where appropriate.
- Suitable replacement available: refurbished or reuse.
- No longer justified: controlled disposal.
What can we do for your fleet?
- intake per batch, by reference or serial number;
- condition and capacity test;
- targeted repair, including electronics and BMS where possible;
- cell replacement and refurbished replacement;
- reporting per battery or per batch, by arrangement;
- collection and returns that suit your volume;
- an agreed diagnosis time in a regular working relationship;
- analysis of recurring defects when the volume justifies it.
How much longer a battery lasts after repair depends heavily on type and use. We only put a number on that once we have the data from your fleet.
Boat Bike Tours: battery checks for a bike fleet
Boat Bike Tours has us check, test and, where needed, repair several batteries at a time, and receives a report of the checks carried out. That makes battery management easier to plan: you know in advance which batteries will last the season, before a bike breaks down on tour. Read the Boat Bike Tours case study.
Arts Evenementen: an e-chopper fleet in one batch
Arts Evenementen had 25 e-chopper batteries re-celled by us in one batch, because the fleet batteries were not lasting long enough in use. One later battery was a different story. It still tested almost as new and only needed a new connector. That is what diagnosis before replacement delivers, in batch work too. Read the Arts Evenementen case study.
How we safeguard quality and safety is described under quality and safety at KWS Seuren.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. KWS Seuren also processes fleet batteries in batches, with intake by reference or serial number and a report per battery or per batch, as agreed in advance.
That varies by battery type and defect. After the diagnosis KWS Seuren gives a price per battery, so you can compare repair, refurbished and new yourself.
For business accounts in the Netherlands KWS Seuren has collection and return options. For larger or unusual volumes, and for damaged batteries, we agree transport and packaging in advance.
Yes. Many fleets start at KWS Seuren with one batch or one battery type. Based on the outcome we agree a fixed way of working.
