Automotive battery box cover
Composite materials are becoming increasingly valued in the transport industry due to their very high weight-specific properties. In the context of electromobility, weight-specific battery capacity has an increasing importance as an evaluation criterion for BEV. To achieve high values of >180Wh/kg, innovative lightweight solutions of the entire battery system are necessary. One of them is locally reinforced Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) as a resource and cost-efficient process for the manufacturing of battery housings. The process combines the high mechanical performance of unidirectional carbon fiber (CF) prepreg material in areas where needed and the design freedom of SMC (CF or GF) as a compression molding material.
