Electronics recycling center; Samsung Galaxy Note 7 barrel fire – ZDNet.be

In the Chinese Tianjin broke Wednesday a fire in a subcontractor of Samsung. It goes to the company that was responsible for the first batch of faulty batteries in the Samsung Galaxy Note 7. As everyone knows, was that model twice recalled due to fire hazard. This factory is also now in the recycling of all recalled devices.

A spokesperson from Samsung was quick to say that the fire is in that electronics recycling center;. It seems ironic that just a big fire, already proven by the incident in this case that Samsung has made the right decision. In addition, said the spokesman for the rest of the plant does not was delayed. Probably is currently working on the new Galaxy S8 which will soon appear, so it seems that the launch is no new delay to have occurred.

create Confusion

At the head of the local fire brigade sounded, however, a very different story. Who declared that the fire originated in the electronics recycling center; but on the production line. According to him, and according to Reuters, when a material in fire in the lithium batteries in the workshops. It would go to semi-finished products.

this may indicate That the battery problems Samsung still not a thing of the past. If the head of the fire brigade will get right, is Samsung with a huge problem: a single flopped model is a coincidence, two consecutive fire hazards the world can send killing for the reputation of the company. It is therefore not surprising that Samsung, the cause is the electronics recycling center; trying to impose.

In total, made 110 firefighters and 19 fire trucks to ensure that the fire is relatively small, remained. No one got hurt, and also, the factory suffered but little damage. Further research will now have to show whether Samsung again have to worry; the Note 7 fiasco cost the Korean giant a whopping $ 5 billion.

Extensive research

Last month, Samsung a report in which the finally explanation provided about the causes of the recall. It turned out to go to two different batterijdefecten. The first time was on an angle too little space in the battery, causing a short circuit could arise. The second time it was the manufacturing process that has to hastily run.

But less than 700 researchers have for months been busy with researching all of the batteries. 200.000 devices and yet another 30,000 separate batteries were to heavy testing. As a result of the investigations was a new roadmap designed in the future there will need to be sure that new problems early in the bud to be nipped.
