Battery swelling analysis becomes key tool for Hofer Powertrain

Hofer Powertrain is expanding its battery testing capabilities with its swelling performance analysis methodology. This approach enables early fault detection and supports faster, more robust battery design. Swelling in battery cells – commonly caused by natural aging, solid electrolyte interphase growth and electrolyte decomposition – has long posed a challenge for maintaining mechanical integrity and long-term reliability. Hofer Powertrain’s s…
