Battery Processing Systems Application Centers
Hands-on support to accelerate the next generation of battery technologies.
Overview
The Battery Application Centers allow a broad range of stakeholders, from students to advanced battery engineers, to experiment with new materials, including solid electrolytes and electrode compositions, fostering the development of high-performing, safe, and durable batteries. A focus on cell concepts and components offers a clear path from laboratory-scale innovation to pilot and mass production, enabling the industry to scale rapidly. Quintus’s skilled engineers and scientists specializing in battery applications and energy storage solutions provide customized support for diverse industry sectors, such as automotive, renewable energy, and consumer electronics.
Services Offered
We offer testing and application support within Warm Isostatic Pressing (WIP) to demonstrate the capabilities, feasibility, and results of the process.
- Consultation on cell materials and pressing process
- Testing of different cycle parameters such as temperature, pressure, and hold time
- Report with logged process data
Consultation
Consultation on materials, process capabilities, and process parameters
Testing
Thorough testing of the desired process to confirm functionality
Report
A report describing the results and the logged process data
We support by collaborating with an external partner to evaluate chemical composition, microstructure, porosity, mechanical properties, and fatigue properties of the tested samples, scope, and price to be defined based on current needs.
Facilities & Equipment
Supported by a cutting-edge infrastructure, the centers house state-of-the-art equipment. The facility’s laboratory battery press provides a platform to optimize critical WIP parameters such as temperature, pressure, and time for improved performance and yield in solid-state battery (SSB) manufacturing.
Equipment
QIB 180 and MIB 120
Our WIP systems apply extremely high pressure (up to 6,000 bar/87,022 psi) in conjunction with elevated temperatures (up to 145°C/293°F) to densify the solid-state cells, removing porosity and voids and ensuring interfacial contact between components.
Expert Support & Collaboration
The availability of advanced WIP systems enables researchers and cell engineers to rapidly prototype and test new cell designs and materials under controlled, repeatable conditions. Combined with expert support from battery specialists, these capabilities help ensure compliance with global safety and performance standards.
SEATBELT Project
We are proud to contribute as an advisory partner in the SEATBELT Project.
Since October 2024, Quintus Technologies has joined the SEATBELT’s International Advisory Board (IAB), bringing our expertise to the Project General Assemblies.
We are strengthening the collaboration by running tests and defining assembly optimizations with materials and samples sent to our Battery Application Center in Västerås, Sweden.
Chalmers Formula Student Freja
Chalmers Formula Student bridges the gap between Engineering Education and Industry by training students in a real-life project where they independently Design, Analyze and develop Technology solutions by making Data-Driven Decisions throughout the Design, Manufacturing and Testing of a full-fledged Formula Racing automobile, and finally put their skills to the test in competitions with various other teams from the rest of the world.
Quintus is one of the bronze sponsors and a very proud partner with Chalmers Formula Student. Recently, they unveiled Freja, the CFS24 car set to compete in Formula Student East in Hungary and Formula Student Germany.
We proudly contributed to the project by providing HIP processing for the Aluminium AlSi10mg additively manufactured components of the car’s suspension system using our HIP system at our Application Center in Västerås, Sweden.
