The increasingly competitive electric vehicle industry requires agile innovation for high-voltage busbars to connect battery modules, both within the battery pack and in battery junction boxes. High-voltage rigid extruded busbars address production speed, cost, and quality challenges in the changing environment of electric vehicles.
What Are the Core Manufacturing Advantages of the Extrusion Method?
Due to the standardized manufacturing processes and use of fewer materials compared to traditional busbars, the HV Extruded Busbar offers cost advantages and reduces production time by 20 – 30%, especially in high-volume production. High-voltage rigid extruded busbars address production speed, cost, and quality challenges in the changing environment of electric vehicles, ensuring seamless customization while optimizing volume production.
How Do Extruded and Overmolded Busbars Compare in Performance?
Overmolded busbars offer excellent customizability and shape complexity, while extruded busbars offer excellent cost-effectiveness. Extrusion matches overmolding with excellent ratings in insulation effectiveness, mechanical strength and durability, environmental compatibility, and lifespan and reliability.
Furthermore, extruded busbars exceed overmolded busbars by offering excellent electrical conductivity and thermal performance.
Can Extruded Busbars Support Complex Battery Architectures?
High-voltage rigid extruded busbars feature a flexible design that can adapt to complex spaces, allowing integration into smaller spaces while supporting higher power density. Everything is fully customizable—from the shape to length—so the design can be adapted for various complex installation environments and electrical designs. In addition, there is an option to integrate them with flexible busbars and high-voltage connectors.
