🚀 Embracing Disruption: Grand Innovation Award for Kautex Textron from SPE Central Europe e. V. 🚀 Kautex Textron and its partners have developed an innovative -and now award-winning- thermoplastic battey cell holder for its #Pentatonic battery systems that integrates a high performance direct cooling. This achievement is a testament that we and our partners (Siebenwurst GmbH & Co. KG; AKRO-PLASTIC GmbH; Envalior; ENGEL) are able to bring two worlds together succesfully - thermal AND plastic engineering: A deep understanding of battery thermal behavior and its translation into a thermoplastic design (incl. material selection, process and tooling) was the crucial step in this project that has been vored the most innovative of all submissions by the experts of the SPE Central Europe e. V.! Huge thanks to the organizers, our partners and also to the experts at Kautex Textron that made it possible, especially our plastic research and thermal team.
