Concept and
High-Voltage Workshop
Where electromobility takes shape.
In our concept and high-voltage workshop, everything revolves around the challenges and opportunities of modern high-voltage batteries - the heart of electromobility.
Our team of engineers, technicians and mechanics is passionate about developing groundbreaking battery systems, optimizing existing technologies and creating sustainable solutions for tomorrow's mobility.
In doing so, we benefit from close cooperation with our other departments such as digital surfacing, body in white, exterior, interior, simulation, electric and electronic, which enrich our projects and enable us to achieve innovative results together.
We focus on the diagnosis of high-voltage batteries, where we dive deep into the technology through precise analysis processes and the use of specially developed tools. We examine and document bolt connections, sealing systems, wiring harnesses and paint applications down to the smallest detail. This knowledge allows us to analyze even complex components such as the battery management controller.
In addition to analysis, we are heavily involved in the development of new battery generations. Together with our partners, we design and build state-of-the-art, functionally integrated and immersion-cooled modules that are not only powerful, but also safe and efficient. Our approach ranges from component development to assembly processes and testing - always with the goal of advancing the technology.
Safety is central to our work. Through projects such as Thermal Propagation Occupant Protection Analysis (TPOPA), we are developing solutions to better protect occupants in electric vehicles. We are developing measures to prevent a fire in the battery from spreading from one cell to the next. Once these protections are integrated, we reassemble the batteries and prepare them for testing - unchanged on the outside, but with breakthrough innovations on the inside.
Another important aspect of our work is sustainability. We are looking at what happens to batteries that have lost their full capacity or have reached the end of their life. Together with our partners, we have already developed solutions such as a high-performance mobile charger made from recycled battery modules. This prototype shows how creative approaches and technical expertise go hand in hand in our workshop.
