Practical articles for understanding material tradeoffs, qualification risks and RFQ questions related to Materials Science.
Copper-clad aluminum combines an aluminum core with a copper surface. Its lower density makes it a candidate for lighter windings, but a motor design also has to accommodate its resistance, dimensions and connections.
Explosion welding is one method of bonding dissimilar metals. The process uses a high-velocity collision to form a metallurgical interface. Its suitability depends on the material combination and the required clad product.
A CCA busbar combines an aluminum core with a copper surface. Its suitability depends on available space, resistance, temperature rise, joint design and the battery pack’s mechanical and environmental requirements.
