Stamping can be used to make the precise, lightweight parts needed for electric cars. Electric vehicle (EV) battery packs must be constructed from configurations of smaller individual batteries.
Manufacturers construct enclosures that may safely and securely surround the batteries using stamping techniques. As the demand for energy-efficient parts, equipment, and assembly rises, stamped items may become noticeably more complex.
Busbars, brackets, connections, contacts, fasteners, housings, inserts, lead frames, lighting parts, shields, terminals, and transmission lead frames are some of the most often stamped components for EVs.
The South Africa EV Stamping Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2026, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2027.
The largest auto manufacturing facility in Africa is the Renault-Nissan facility. Two production lines are utilised by the business, and they handle everything from stamping through assembly, sheet metal work, painting, seats, and chassis.
The Lodgy, Dokker, Dokker Van, Sandero, and Sandero Stepway models are all made at this facility. The Institut de Formation des Métiers de l’Industrie Automobile provides training for locally recruited staff.
With the completion of one of its largest and most ambitious projects to date, the high-tech new Stamping Plant, which is fully operational, Ford Motor Company’s investment in its Silverton Assembly Plant operations in Pretoria is bearing fruit.
