The rigorous testing and compliance requirements for Li-Ion batteries can lead to high cost and testing cycle rates for projects. Our client require multiple test passes for this battery casing which R&D Global met to the highest of standards.
R&D Global are proud of the completed work and had no safety or near-miss incidents during the project to completion. We also can provide references to our existing clients for your due diligence and if you have any further questions.
Shockproof Battery Casing
- R&D Global lead the design, manufacture and testing of a polyurethane battery housing which met the rigorous demands of high output Li-ion cells including shock, drop and waterproof tests.
FliteCell Product Development - Battery Casing
What we did?
The project involved the following customer requirements including strict drop, shock and water sealing. All of these requirements in a relatively short time period as well.
- Cutting Edge DesignThe modelling and design team took the initial customer designs and improved on these significantly.
- Manufactured In-HouseAll testing units and their cooling systems were built in-house allowing the team to ensure system compatibility.
- Extra Design BenefitsFor enhanced safety and electro-magnetic resistance, the unit was design with composite materials such as polyurethane and aluminium.
Project Value and Results
There were clear projects results and the client was satisfied.
- Project valve – $120 k
- Project Duration – 12 weeks
- Project Outcome - Developed a polyurethane battery housing which met the rigorous demands of high output Li-ion cells, which included a thermal dissipation passive cooling system and a Fire Retardant Anti-Static (FRAS) material in the polyurethane for enhanced safety.
