Seco/Warwick, a leader of the CAB technology, will provide long-term partners from Poland and the Czech Republic with further EV/CAB lines for electric vehicle battery coolers’ protective atmosphere brazing. The solutions ordered are the third and eighth lines delivered to these manufacturers, respectively.

EV/CAB continuous lines are products dedicated to the automotive sector. They are used for battery coolers’ protective atmosphere brazing. EV/CAB solutions work for heat exchangers’ leading manufacturers and are used for mass production of large-size car battery coolers.  

Both partners have been cooperating with the Seco/Warwick Group for many years. The Czech manufacturer has just ordered the eighth CAB line, and the third line will be delivered to the Polish manufacturer. Subsequent orders for the same solutions are the highest form of the delivered products’ quality recognition as well as general satisfaction with the cooperation. Seco/Warwick takes pride in long-term cooperation and customers who return with further needs. Partnership and mutual trust are the foundation of more than 20 years of cooperation with the automotive industry.  

“The orders we are talking about come from our long-term partners, who in total have several Seco/Warwick brand solutions,” said Piotr Skarbiński, vice president of the Aluminum and CAB products segment at the Seco/Warwick Group. “Globally, the demand for electric cars and thus for battery coolers is increasing. Because our furnaces have been used by radiator manufacturers for years, they can be sure of their quality and reliability. Wanting to have repeatable production, they are looking for the best solutions in the field of protective atmosphere brazing, and we try to effectively meet their needs.”  

The production of battery coolers for electric cars is growing at a rapid pace, and the demand for electric vehicles is increasing all over the world. Due to their size, this type of exchangers cannot be brazed in a standard furnace; you need a special product, which is EV/CAB. EV/CAB is a complete line adapted to the production of large-sized heat exchangers. Thanks to continuous operation, it guarantees an uninterrupted production process and plants’ high efficiency. Its greatest advantage is the perfect temperature uniformity over the entire production line width, thanks to which perfect and repeatable elements are obtained, which is the key to success in mass production. 

According to the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA), in the first three quarters of 2022, approximately 717,000 new, totally electric passenger cars (BEV, battery electric vehicle) were registered in the European Union Member States. This is as much as 26 percent more than in the same period of 2021. Including plug-in hybrids (PHEV), sales of electric cars for the first three quarters of 2022 amounted to over 1.2 million units, and the year-on-year increase was almost 8 percent.
