Drilling EV Battery Cooling Plates: What I've Learned
Battery cooling plates are one of the newer applications I have been seeing in deep hole drilling. They are basically aluminum plates with a network of drilled channels that coolant flows through to keep EV battery cells at the right temperature. I have also written about EV motor shafts and hot runner manifolds — all part of the same EV trend, but each with different challenges. The concept is similar to a hot runner manifold — a pattern of intersecting holes in a plate — but the scale and the material make it different. ...
