Soluciones de metrología para eMobility

La industria automotriz está acelerando rápidamente el desarrollo y lanzamiento de vehículos de nueva energía (NEV). Dado que la construcción de sistemas de propulsión eléctricos difiere significativamente de la de los vehículos con motor de combustión, los fabricantes y proveedores de automóviles deben reinventarse para adaptar la producción y el ensamblaje de los componentes críticos de los vehículos eléctricos. Un desafío importante en la garantía de calidad en el nuevo negocio de la energía es la necesidad de satisfacer la creciente demanda de precisión; en otras palabras: la metrología también está cambiando.
Las soluciones eMobility de ZEISS te permiten adaptarte a este cambio al proporcionar múltiples tecnologías avanzadas para garantizar la calidad y garantizar la confiabilidad, eficiencia y seguridad de tus NEV.

Five Core Components of eMobility - A solution for every application

Battery

Batteries play an important role in the performance, range and longevity of an electric car. Safety, service life, performance and cost are essential to ensuring the success of battery technologies. These factors need to be addressed every step of the way, from R&D to quality control and production. It’s necessary to control and understand the properties of the battery down to the material, electrodes, cells, modules and tray level.

Quality Assurance Solutions for Batteries

Electric Motor

Electric motors are true powerhouses – compact and light, but still capable of high speeds and enormous torques, even at slow speeds. All components need to fi t together precisely for these motors to generate so much power with such little wear. One challenge posed by the latest generation of motors involves the precise production and assembly of the hairpins and stator, as well as the manufacture of the stacks in the stator and rotor.

Quality Assurance Solutions for Electric Motors

Power Electronics

Power electronics is the energy hub of every battery-electric, hybrid and fuel cell vehicle, as it controls the flow of power between the battery and the electric motor. To make electronic components more efficient and reliable, it’s essential to control the quality of semiconductors, printed circuit boards (PCBs) and finished modules across different length scales.

Fuel cell system

In a FCEV, the fuel cell system provides all of the energy needed to power
the electric motor. In the fuel cell stack many individual cells are arranged in series
and connected. The process to construct the fuel cell system
requires the highest quality standards in production and development of
each individual component.

Fuel cell systems

Transmission

Electric vehicles have very different powertrains – with either a single-speed or two-speed transmission instead of up to nine gears found in combustion engines. The engine and transmission share a housing – reducing the number of components and weight, but not the quality requirements. A number of measuring and inspection steps are needed to ensure top performance, low wear and tear, and quiet operation.
