SAFE HANDLING OF HIGH-VOLTAGE BATTERY IN E-MOBILITY PRODUCTION
High-voltage batteries are among the most demanding components in vehicle assembly. They are heavy, sensitive, and safety-critical. Handling them places special demands on lifting technology.
This guide explains the requirements for handling high-voltage batteries. Zeilhofer Handling Technology uses lifting axes and fixtures for battery assembly in the automotive industry.
THE CHALLENGE
WHY HV STORAGE IS SPECIAL
A vehicle battery weighs several hundred kilograms, but it must be installed in the vehicle body with millimeter precision and without vibration. Impacts or tilting can damage the cells.
At the same time, strict occupational safety requirements apply. The high-voltage battery must be guided securely and protected against uncontrolled movement throughout the entire handling process. Lifting equipment that only supports the weight is insufficient for this task.
High load capacity
Safe handling of loads up to the four-figure kilogram range.
Precise joining
Insertion with millimeter precision, without impact and without damaging the cells.
Pendulum-free guidance
Rigid load guidance instead of a cable, so that the storage unit does not swing or tilt.
Safe device
Gripping device with defined load securing, precisely designed for the storage type.
THE SOLUTION
Lifting axle with special device
For handling high-voltage storage systems, a linear lifting axis with rigid load guidance, combined with a project-specific gripping device, is suitable.
The ZH90 lifting axis is used in final assembly specifically for this task. It supports loads up to 1,200 kg, guides the storage unit without any pendulum movement, and positions it with millimeter precision. The gripping device is custom-designed for each storage unit type and secures the load throughout the entire assembly process.
FAQ / Q&A
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
01 How heavy is a car battery?
Depending on the vehicle class, a high-voltage battery weighs several hundred kilograms, and in larger vehicles up to the four-digit kilogram range.
02 Why is non-commuting leadership important here?
A vibrating storage unit cannot be precisely fitted and can become misaligned during insertion. A rigid, pendulum-free load guide prevents this and protects the sensitive cells.
03 Which Zeilhofer system is suitable for this?
The ZH90 lifting axis with project-specific gripping device. It can carry up to 1,200 kg, guides the load without pendulum movement and positions it with millimeter precision.
04 Is the gripping device individually developed?
Yes. The device is designed precisely for the respective storage type and the assembly process and is supplied as a complete solution from a single source.
