Swoboda is launching a new solution for electromobility and energy storage: the modular Battery Lid Assembly for prismatic cells. The component is used in battery cells, packs and systems of electric vehicles as well as in other battery-powered applications and is designed to meet customer requirements.
The Battery Lid Assembly seals the cell pressure-tight and includes both the anode and cathode sides. An integrated burst pressure valve can be integrated as an option to increase system safety. "With our solutions, we want to strengthen European battery cell production in particular – and at the same time be a reliable international development partner," emphasizes Christian Göser, CSO at Swoboda.
Flexibly configurable – for manufacturers worldwide
Swoboda's lids are designed for prismatic cell types and can be customized in numerous parameters: from electrode design to valve shape and finish to mechanical dimensions. This enables seamless integration into existing and new cell architectures – regardless of the location of production.
Technically sophisticated
Swoboda's Battery Lid Assemblies are individually designed and dimensioned so that they meet the customer's exact requirements. They are made of high-quality materials such as copper and aluminum, which stand for reliable electrical performance and high robustness. The components are designed for use at temperatures up to +80 °C and can therefore withstand even demanding thermal conditions. The burst pressure can be flexibly configured in the range of 8 to 14 bar to meet different safety requirements. In addition, all versions are qualified for automotive use and are therefore suitable for large-scale applications in international battery cell production.
Using state-of-the-art FEM simulations and modern manufacturing technologies - including laser welding and forming processes - Swoboda meets the highest quality standards while maintaining short cycle times. The Battery Lid Assemblies are available in various form factors and can be tailored precisely to customer needs.
