H&T Battery Components, as market leader, possesses extensive know-how in the field of production, know-how that comes from experience and the goal of continually improving what is good and changing what already exists. H&T Battery Components realizes that a product can only be successful in the marketplace as long as its developers are thinking today about the challenges of tomorrow.

This includes the need to increase the internal volume of battery cans through sidewall thinning so that the battery manufacturers are able to offer higher power, longer lasting products. An essential prerequisite for the development and manufacture of these components is not just the spirit of innovation but the ability to achieve absolute precision. This is the criterion that ensures that even the smallest of parts can be precision-crafted to the highest of tolerances.

Our battery component manufacturing is founded on production systems, production machinery and tools that the Heitkamp & Thumann Group develops and builds internally. These systems and the equipment used are precisely matched to specific production requirements and allow the use of a wide range of deep-drawing technologies - including Drawing and Ironing, Drawing and Thinning and variable wall thickness through Sidewall Flow Control. A comprehensive quality management system delivers a high level of quality in the production of our battery components.

Close collaboration with our customers ensures that we not only deliver reliable quality, but also components that are precisely tailored to their needs. This is guaranteed by an innovation-friendly environment and highly qualified employees who are focused on finding solutions to problems and who understand how to turn vision for the future into concrete products and production processes.

In the field of transport and traffic, one such vision has in part already become a reality - the hybrid. Hybrids combine conventional combustion engines and electric motors to form a joint drive unit, which means a considerable reduction in emissions. The electric motor cuts in mainly when pulling away and accelerating. How well such a principle works depends partially on the batteries, for which high-quality components are used in order to guarantee performance and safety.

With its experience and technological expertise, H&T Battery Components is making an important contribution to pioneering solutions of today so they can become the everyday products of tomorrow. This is critical as both Legislators and the automotive industry alike have resolved to enforce a significant reduction in polluting emissions including carbon monoxide and particulate matter, and to improve average overall vehicle fuel efficiency.
