Xiamen Lith Machine Limited, also known as Lith Corporation, is a manufacturing company that specializes in equipment for battery lab research, pilot development, and industrial production. Established in 1998 by material science doctors from Tsinghua University, the company has grown to become a provider of precision machines for battery manufacturing. With production facilities in Shenzhen and Xiamen, China, Xiamen Lith Machine focuses on delivering solutions that integrate into both laboratory settings and large-scale production environments. The company supports academic institutions, national laboratories, and battery manufacturers globally, contributing to the development and production of various battery technologies.
Battery Technology
Xiamen Lith Machine offers a wide array of equipment and turnkey solutions that cover the entire midstream battery manufacturing process. Their focus includes lithium-ion, sodium-ion, and solid-state battery technologies. For laboratory and pilot-scale operations, they provide equipment such as mixers, film coaters, electrode die cutters, roller presses, and glove boxes, which are essential for research and prototyping. This range also includes multi-functional systems that integrate battery testing and assembly.
For full-scale production, Xiamen Lith Machine develops complete manufacturing lines for cylindrical (e.g., 18650, 21700, 26650), prismatic, pouch, and coin cells. These lines facilitate all stages of battery production, from electrode preparation—including mixing, coating, and calendaring—to cell fabrication processes like slitting, stacking, or winding, and electrolyte filling. Their offerings extend to formation, aging, cell and module assembly, and quality testing.
Additionally, they provide equipment for battery pack assembly, including machines for module and pack building, spot welding, capacity grading, and battery management system (BMS) testing. The company also supplies specialized solutions for emerging technologies such as sodium-ion batteries, solid-state batteries, and perovskite solar cells, and offers automation and semi-automation equipment to enhance production efficiency and precision.
Recent projects
Xiamen Lith Machine has undertaken several projects in 2024 and 2025. In 2025, they deployed a cylindrical battery auto winding machine in Europe aimed at improving automation in cylindrical cell production. Earlier in 2025, a custom pouch cell hot press formation machine was delivered to a battery manufacturer in South Korea. The company also installed customized solid-state battery research equipment, including heated coaters and electrode die cutters, at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in early 2025. In 2024, an advanced sodium battery production line was supplied to a renewable energy firm in Sweden, marking their involvement in alternative battery chemistries.
Investors
Xiamen Lith Machine is privately held, established in 1998, and has expanded through organic growth with manufacturing facilities in Shenzhen and Xiamen.
