Aluminum battery enclosures or other platform parts typically provide a weight savings of 40% compared to an equivalent steel design. The most-used and best-suited alloys for battery enclosures are of the 6000-series Al-Si-Mg-Cu family, Afseth shared, noting that these alloys are “very well compatible” with end-of-life recycling.
The new energy power battery shells on the market are mainly square in shape, usually made of 3003 aluminum alloy using hot rolled deep drawing process. Depending on the design requirements of the power battery, the thickness and width can be customized.

The new energy long cell battery shell developed and produced by our company adopts a cold bending forming+high-frequency welding process, which breaks through the constraints of traditional deep drawing/extrusion processes and overcomes the welding technology of ultra-thin aluminum shells.
The idea of making batteries with aluminum isn't new. Researchers investigated its potential in the 1970s, but it didn't work well. When used in a conventional lithium-ion battery, aluminum fractures and fails within a few charge-discharge cycles, due to expansion and contraction as lithium travels in and out of the material.
