by Bianca Kranz
Significant cuts in charging times and lighter and more efficient cars—the shift from the currently common 400 V systems to 800 V will bring long-awaited improvements for e-mobility and is expected to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles worldwide. So-called “hairpins” for stators in electric motors will play a special role in this technological leap. With the worldwide first industry-ready turnkey hairpin extrusion line, Rosendahl is introducing an insulation solution for the safe and efficient use of hairpins at 800 V and above.
