Aluminum Battery Enclosure Design
An optimized aluminum design for individual components or complete vehicle body structure is ~ 40 % lighter than an equally optimized steel design. A cheaper but heavier steel body can
Battery enclosure cabinets play an integral role in modern industries. From aerospace, military, automotive, medical to energy industries depend heavily on these accessories. They use enclosures in: In short, you can use these accessories anywhere and in any application.
Many enclosures have DIN rail. Electronic components –modern battery cabinet enclosures have sensors for smoke, shock, humidity, temperature, and moisture. These are safety measures to ensure the environment within the battery cabinet is safe. However, such enclosures are costlier.
Extrusion plays an integral role in the battery box enclosure manufacturing process. Currently, many EV manufacturers are adopting aluminum extrusion for battery casing. During aluminum extrusion for battery housing, you will push a billet through a die. Ideally, you can extrude hollow, semi-hollow, and solid battery housing components.
Let's look at the most common parts: Frame – it forms the outer structure. In most cases, you will mount or weld various panels on the structure. The battery storage cabinet may have top, bottom, and side panels. Door – allows you to access the battery box enclosure. You can use hinges to attach the door to the enclosure structure.
