Lightweight components for traction battery
Precise machining by BWB-Betschart AG produces lightweight components for a traction battery from solid plates and bars that fulfill their function with minimal weight. The solid connection plate, which accommodates various components, including the high-voltage connection and the pressure compensation diaphragm, offers an optimum solution with its low weight. In addition, the company uses BWB-machined aluminum longitudinal members in its traction battery, which offer optimum rigidity but are still designed for lightweight construction. The resulting traction batteries on the e-truck have a total capacity of 450 kWh.
