Case Study: An optimized battery enclosure design with DKCMS communication integration

Developing an enclosure for a high-voltage battery typically involves integrating layers of structural materials, cooling and heating hardware, sensors, high-voltage and low-voltage systems, as well as a large PCBA for each module. The enclosure must protect the battery from mechanical stress, ensure efficient thermal management, and shield it from environmental factors such as moisture and corrosion, all while minimizing component usage to reduce costs and potential failure points. Furthermore, isolating high-voltage power delivery from low-voltage sensing wiring adds to the complexity of the design process.

Case Study: Dukosi x Forward Engineering

Dukosi and Forward Engineering have partnered to create a proof-of-concept smart battery enclosure that demonstrates the simplicity of integrating the near field communication antenna from the Dukosi Cell Monitoring System (DKCMS) directly into the lid of the enclosure, with the aim to reduce manufacturing costs, and achieve faster time-to-market.
