Sanse Group’s non-metallic power battery enclosure garnered significant attention and recognition from Jiangling Motors Group (JMC) and Gotion High-Tech leaders during the strategic cooperation signing ceremony between JMC New Energy and Gotion High-Tech.

 

On September 29, 2024, the strategic cooperation signing ceremony between Jiangling Motors Group New Energy and Gotion High-Tech, along with the launch of the “Yi” model SPS (Super Pouch Solution) battery pack, was held at Gotion High-Tech's new base in Ganzhou. The event was attended by Liang Dingsheng, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Director of the Administrative Committee of Ganzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone, Dan Fengwu, Secretary of the Party Committee and General Manager of JMC New Energy, and Li Yuhua, Chairman of Gotion High-Tech.

As a pioneer in the application of composite materials in China, Sanse Group has long been committed to researching the substitution of metals with composite materials like SMC across various fields. The showcased non-metallic power battery enclosure is one of the outcomes of Sanse's years of research into replacing steel with plastics. The sample box on display attracted significant attention from JMC and Gotion High-Tech leaders.

At the exhibition, Gotion High-Tech’s R&D Director, Guo Weihua, provided a detailed explanation of the exhibit. He introduced the material technology used for the lower box, which is high-strength SMC compression molding (continuous glass fiber-reinforced sheet molding compound), and the upper cover made with STM (glass fiber-reinforced PU spray molding). In terms of product characteristics, the enclosure offers high design flexibility, ease of molding, an integrated design with fewer parts, and is lightweight yet high-strength, with excellent impact resistance and corrosion resistance. Additionally, it features high forming efficiency, making it suitable for industrial production. The enclosure also provides good insulation properties, enabling superior battery performance in low temperatures and extending vehicle range.

JMC’s General Manager, Dan Fengwu, remarked that the successful launch of this battery enclosure, the first of its kind in the nation, is set to mark a new chapter in the industry. He also expressed anticipation for the mass production of this product. Gotion High-Tech's Chairman attentively listened to the product presentation and highly commended the design direction of Sanse’s composite material enclosure. As the saying goes, "The road ahead is long, but we shall keep moving forward." Sanse Group will leverage this opportunity to actively seek feedback from both battery and vehicle manufacturers, rigorously test and validate the product, and ultimately bring the non-metallic power battery enclosure to mass production, providing a “l(fā)ighter, stronger, greener, and more cost-effective” solution for new energy vehicles.
