Solutions for e-mobility components
E-mobility is a term that relates to a group of components found in hybrids and electric vehicles. In order to increase driving range and power, particularly through weight reduction, most components in hybrid and electric cars are made from aluminum.
Component Solutions
To put this into perspective, a medium-sized passenger car contains around 160 kg of aluminum components, which are significantly lighter than those previously made from any other materials. Well-designed and light components will be key for hybrid and fully electric cars moving forward. Some examples of different e-mobility components are different types of housings and battery pack frames.
One important thing to remember is that much of the knowledge and the solutions developed for machining traditional automotive components can be transfered and applied to e-mobility components, mainly in the milling, drilling and tapping fields. Below are some tools that offer premium performance for machining aluminum auto components.
