Audi will install e-motor manufacturing equipment from bdtronic, a German mechanical engineering company, for its Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture in the coming years.
bdtronic manufacturers impregnation equipment, which closes and seals the cavities in windings and coils within hybrid and electric motors to provide better insulation and vibration resistance.
Bdtronic CEO Patrick Vandenrhijn said, “bdtronic has delivered and installed several high-volume machines at German Tier 1 automotive suppliers and several low-volume impregnation machines to German OEMs. We are proud that Audi has chosen us to deliver the first high-volume production machine for impregnating e-motors.”
