Q&A for Process Specifications and Technical Standards for Lithium-ion Cell Manufacturing: Deployment and Upgrade

Data for this category comes from raw material batch ledgers, production MES systems, slurry and coating testing equipment, workshop dew point

What data for this category looks like

Data for this category comes from raw material batch ledgers, production MES systems, slurry and coating testing equipment, workshop dew point monitoring devices, formation and capacity cabinets, and laboratory testing equipment. Daily documents include batching records, coating and rolling parameter tables, winding/laminating process records, liquid injection ledgers, formation and capacity data, and OCV and safety test reports. Data is updated in real time per battery batch and individual cell, with fields including slurry solid content, coating areal density, rolling gap, dew point temperature, internal resistance value, and more, along with corresponding production batch and detection timestamps.

What constraints these characteristics impose on deployment and upgrade

Data in this category is high-frequency and real-time, with concentrated batch volumes and multi-dimensional process parameters in its format. This imposes multiple constraints on the deployment and upgrade process. High-frequency real-time detection data requires database connections to adapt to high-concurrency read and write operations to avoid question-and-answer response delays. Multi-source heterogeneous process documents must undergo format standardization adaptation in advance to ensure accurate retrieval after access. Electrochemical manufacturing processes have strict requirements for data accuracy. Field verification rules must be configured during deployment to prevent incorrect parameters from entering the knowledge base. During the upgrade process, the storage structure of original production batch data must be retained to avoid interrupting existing process Q&A services.

How to set configurations

Config ItemSuggested ValueRationale
DB_MAX_LINK200–300 connectionsAdapts to high-frequency process data read and write requests generated in real time per battery batch, preventing service interruptions caused by connection pool exhaustion
MONGODB_URIPoints to a dedicated database instance storing process documents and detection dataIsolates business data from other system data to ensure the accuracy of process Q&A retrieval
REDIS_URLConfigured as the access address of an internally deployed Redis cache instanceAccelerates high-frequency retrieval of process parameters and reduces access pressure on the primary database
STORAGE_S3_ENDPOINTBound to the access endpoint of the enterprise's internal object storageUniformly stores attachment content for process documents and test reports
ROOT_KEYGenerate a random string that complies with enterprise permission specificationsEnsures the security of access permissions for background configurations

Three common mistakes

  • Phenomenon: A connection timed out or access denied error is returned when calling the database, and process specification data cannot be loaded. Cause: The intranet or public network IP of the deployment node was not added to the whitelist of the database instance, and the access parameters for MONGODB_URI were not configured correctly.
  • Phenomenon: After upgrading to FastGPT v4.17.0, a prompt indicating a missing configuration file appears when starting the service, and the original process Q&A configuration cannot be loaded. Cause: The configuration item migration was not completed according to the upgrade guide, and the assumption that the new version no longer reads the config.json file at all led to necessary configurations not being transferred to the new configuration system.
  • Phenomenon: After deployment is complete, the retrieved process parameter results do not match the actual production documents, with missing fields or incorrect units. Cause: Format standardization processing of process documents was not completed in advance, and corresponding data verification rules were not configured, resulting in incomplete parameter information imported into the knowledge base.

How to confirm the configuration is correct

  • Run the database connection test script to verify that the configurations for MONGODB_URI and REDIS_URL can establish normal connections, and adjust the maximum connection count based on test results.
  • Upload a real coating and rolling parameter document to the knowledge base, and run a retrieval test to confirm that accurate retrieval results for corresponding process parameters can be obtained.
  • Check the service monitoring panel to confirm that the database connection count does not exceed the configured value of DB_MAX_LINK, and there are no frequent connection timeout errors.
  • Verify the object storage access configuration to confirm that attachment content for process documents can be uploaded and downloaded normally.
