Li-ion cells often have strong opinions about their clamping pressures, wanting neither too hard, nor too soft. It’s a classic “Goldilocks problem,” with a sweet spot that balances electrochemical performance, cell life, and mechanical retention. Goldilocks also changes her mind, often, as the cells breathe and swell through a lifetime of usage. When designing modules… Read more »

Improving the efficiency, power, and capabilities of EVs vehicles can be accomplished by less mass and more space. This can be achieved by moving from round wiring to flat conductors, known as busbar, for batteries and beyond. Busbar innovation outside the battery pack is of high interest for the future, routing high power from charging… Read more »
