Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What EV and battery manufacturing equipment do you auction?
We auction battery cell formation and testing equipment, electrode slurry mixing systems, coating and calendering lines, cell assembly equipment, module and pack assembly lines, high-voltage EV drivetrain test systems, thermal management manufacturing equipment, and CNC machining centers used in EV component production. We have direct experience with EV manufacturers including ZEV X and battery manufacturers including EnerDel.
Is there international buyer demand for EV and battery manufacturing equipment?
Yes, strong international demand from battery and EV manufacturers in South Korea, Germany, Japan, and Southeast Asia. These buyers are actively expanding capacity and see US-based used equipment as cost-effective compared to new OEM pricing. Our team has experience facilitating international transactions and export compliance for this equipment category.
How do you value battery manufacturing equipment for a lender or bankruptcy court?
Battery manufacturing equipment is a rapidly evolving category: values depend heavily on cell chemistry compatibility, equipment generation, and the state of the buyer market at time of disposition. Our AMEA-accredited appraisers provide USPAP-compliant OLV and FLV valuations and stay current on secondary market trends in this space.
Can you handle high-voltage EV test systems and specialized infrastructure?
Yes, high-voltage test systems, dynamometers, and EV drivetrain test cells require specialized handling and buyer qualification. We coordinate with qualified electrical contractors for decommissioning and document technical specifications thoroughly to attract the right buyers.
Do you work with EV company lenders and investors on distressed situations?
Yes, as EV and battery startups have faced funding challenges, we have worked with secured lenders and investors on collateral appraisals and liquidations. We understand the urgency of these situations and can mobilize quickly to protect lender recovery.
What about solar and energy storage manufacturing equipment?
We handle solar panel manufacturing equipment (laminators, flash testers, tabbers/stringers), battery energy storage system (BESS) components, and supporting production infrastructure. Our buyer network spans clean energy manufacturers, OEMs, and international buyers in markets with growing renewable energy manufacturing demand.
