- ENNOVI optimizes the design of the cell contact system of the battery module for electric vehicles with advanced capabilities
Latest research and detailed materials testing promise to improve manufacturing efficiency, reliability and environmental sustainability of electric vehicle batteries
SINGAPORE, May 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ENNOVI, a mobility electrification solutions partner, introduces an innovative cellular contact system (CCS) lamination approach. ENNOVI has qualified polyethylene terephthalate (PET) adhesives and insulation sheets from multiple suppliers by testing them for bond strength, durability and environmental impact. As a result of this research, ENNOVI has a database of recommendations for the most effective material combinations, avoiding the trial and error approach that has long been a staple of the industry.
Historically, mounting CCS to battery cells has relied on cumbersome methods, including molded plastic trays and foams for positioning. While effective for positioning cells and collectors, these methods introduce unnecessary weight and complexity, especially as module sizes increase. Recognizing the limitations of traditional practices, ENNOVI has pioneered the use of hot and cold lamination processes, eliminating the need for these trays or foams. By recommending lamination material combinations, the company offers OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers an optimized and more adaptable solution.
"Our move toward lamination means a huge leap in our ability to accurately position collectors, without the mechanical limitations imposed by conventional methods," explained Till Wagner, Product Manager, Energy Systems, ENNOVI. "By creating a database of pre-tested PET films and adhesives, we not only accelerate CCS design but also simplify the assembly process, opening up new possibilities for material and energy savings."
The implications of ENNOVI's lamination advances are far-reaching. The company's ability to offer hot or cold rolling processes uniquely positions it in the market, providing greater flexibility and efficiency to global original equipment manufacturers and Tier 1 suppliers. By optimizing sheet selection and PET adhesives, ENNOVI improves the structural integrity and life of electric vehicle battery modules and reduces manufacturing cycle times and environmental footprint.
As the industry moves toward more sustainable and efficient manufacturing practices, ENNOVI innovations are poised to lead the charge in the next generation of electric vehicle battery module design and assembly. The company focuses on methods that reduce or eliminate the need for glue, thereby addressing concerns about longevity, environmental impact and manufacturing efficiency. “Our goal is to go beyond traditional adhesives and leverage cutting-edge techniques to achieve a stronger, more sustainable bond,” Wagner said.
