University–Industry Collaboration: Langtian & GDUT Boost Battery Testing R&D
Langtian New Energy and Guangdong University of Technology Form Strategic Partnership to Drive Innovation in Battery Testing
Guangzhou, May 6, 2024 — Langtian New Energy, a leading provider of advanced battery testing and thermal control systems, has officially signed a university–enterprise cooperation agreement with Guangdong University of Technology (GDUT). This milestone marks a new phase of deep integration between academia and industry within the lithium battery and energy storage sector.
Bridging Talent and Technology
As part of the agreement, Langtian will actively participate in training GDUT students through internships, practical workshops, and real-world engineering projects. This cooperation ensures that emerging talent can directly contribute to the research, development, and optimization of battery testing systems used in high-demand applications, such as EV batteries and cylindrical cell testing platforms.
“This partnership allows us to align cutting-edge academic research with real industry needs,” said a representative from Langtian. “It’s a two-way value chain — students gain meaningful technical experience, and we accelerate innovation.”
Joint Research and Technological Advancement
Both parties will explore co-developing key technologies in areas such as:
-
Multi-channel high-precision battery testing systems
-
Intelligent temperature chambers for extreme environmental simulation
-
Data acquisition, real-time monitoring, and analysis algorithms
By combining GDUT’s deep R&D capabilities with Langtian’s strong engineering and production foundation, the partnership aims to bring lab-level ideas into industrial-scale reality.
Strategic Value to the Battery Industry
This collaboration is not only a step forward for Langtian, but also sets a benchmark for how equipment manufacturers can engage in “industry–academia synergy” to remain competitive in a rapidly evolving energy market. With EV battery standards becoming more rigorous and diversified, the demand for reliable, accurate testing equipment is greater than ever.
Looking Ahead
Langtian and GDUT plan to establish a joint innovation center focused on next-generation battery testing protocols, temperature control technologies, and automated evaluation systems. These efforts are expected to play a critical role in supporting safer, more efficient energy storage technologies.
