[0003] The process of tightly combining the battery cover and the battery body using mechanical pressure or a specific process. Using a battery cover pressing machine or similar automated equipment, through components such as robotic arms, pressing molds, and control systems, the battery cover is accurately placed on the battery body, and appropriate pressure is applied to complete the pressing. In the prior art, the battery processing piece is manually picked up and placed by a mechanical hand, and directly pressed by a pressing mold, and the battery cover is pressed in one time.
