Honeywell debuts technologies across the EV battery system

From battery production to electric vehicle use, Honeywell solutions bring greater safety and efficiency to drivers and manufacturers

  • By ICN Bureau | October 08, 2024

Honeywell announced two new solutions to optimize electric vehicle (EV) safety for drivers and manufacturing for gigafactories. The technologies, offered by Honeywell Process Solutions and Honeywell Sensing Solutions, support the company’s alignment of its portfolio to three powerful megatrends, including the energy transition.

“As the world moves at full speed toward electrification, a number of challenges have arisen, including how to make EV batteries safely, efficiently and at high volume,” said Victor Verissimo, General Manager, Electrification for Honeywell Industrial Automation. “Our latest solutions across the EV landscape are aimed at reducing safety risks for this sector, creating greater transparency throughout the lifecycle of a battery and making the production process more efficient. By doing this, we are helping progress toward a more sustainable future.”

Honeywell Process Solutions is partnering with Titan Advanced Energy Solutions, a pioneer in ultrasound-based battery interrogation systems, to integrate its sophisticated scanning technology into the Honeywell Battery Manufacturing Excellence Platform (MXP). Titan’s ultrasound scanning solution enables real-time, in-line analysis of battery quality to detect any manufacturing defects not visible through traditional methods.

The Titan technology’s thorough testing of every battery cell supports faster defect-tracing and overall process efficiency improvements, especially for early-stage gigafactories. By integrating the technology into the Honeywell Battery MXP, battery manufacturers will gain comprehensive, end-to-end visibility into the batteries they are producing, enabling cost-effective, high-quality battery production at the large scale required for today’s electrification needs.

Honeywell Sensing Solutions is launching an advanced lithium-ion battery safety sensor for use in EVs. The Battery Safety Electrolyte Sensor (BES) utilizes Li-ion Tamer™ electrolyte gas detection technology to detect “first vent” events, which are very early indicators of a potential battery fire. The indicators can issue a warning 5 to 20 minutes before a fire.
