Author: Siddharth Kurwa A DC high-potential test (HiPot) is used to detect manufacturing defects in the electrode stack/jelly roll. During the test, a high voltage (orders of magnitude higher than the cell operating voltage) is applied to the cell to screen out early-in-life and latent risks from the production cell population. It is preferred to … Read more
for Cell Contacting Systems and Busbars Aluminium busbar products are used in manifold applications in batteries and battery systems due to their favourable structural, physical, and chemical properties. When it comes to cell contacting systems and busbars, electrical (and thermal) conductivity are decisive for balancing component resistance and cross-section to meet the designed space. However, … Read more

This is a follow-up to “10 things about SSBs that you are often not told”, January 10, 2023 Author Dr. Simon Madgwick of Nuvvon Inc. In “10 things about SSBs that you are often not told”, number 9 was a brief explanation of Packaging, with the promise of a subsequent post. Although this is a lengthy … Read more
A 4680 cell concept The battery industry is targeting larger cell formats, which enable simplified module design and cell-to-pack or even cell-to-chassis solutions. In this regard, hard case battery cells and in particular cylindrical cells will play an important role in enabling the named developments. Tesla’s announcement of a tabless 4680 cylindrical LIB has triggered … Read more
Author: David G. Kilburn & Nigel Taylor As I posted the other day, there are a lot of “boring” battery topics that often get overlooked and producing the battery housing (sometimes referred to as battery tray or box) is no exception! To house a battery you need a high quality, leak proof container that can … Read more
Author Dr. Simon Madgwick of Nuvvon Inc. As an overview, this post cannot cover every possibility or explain in depth. Nonetheless these 10 topics give a reasonable overview of solid-state batteries in terms of what is less transparent in the publicity and hype of solid state. To be clear, we need solid state batteries, but … Read more
In order that we can understand the specifications of the battery pack it is necessary to at first piece together the vehicle. Warning: this page is going to have updates/amendments over time and some values are likely to be an estimate. Specifications A typical single tank semi can do circa 550miles and tanks hold up … Read more
