Product development/prototyping of EV/HEV/PHEV battery

Developing vehicle-mounted batteries with automakers

Customer needs/background Customer needs/background

As the 21st century began, common sense about the environment was undergoing a revolution, and various automakers were promoting the development of EVs to achieve zero emissions from automobiles.
Under such circumstances, we were contracted by an automaker to develop, prototype, and test large lithium-ion battery cells for mass-produced vehicles.
For the development of pouch battery cells for vehicles, we were in charge of basic design, study/execution of manufacturing process, characteristic test and safety test of prototype battery cells, and connection method for battery packaging. We also established the basis of the mass production process and transferred it to the automobile manufacturer.
