Estes uses a Giga-Magnesium Thixomolded battery shell to achive the highest gravimetric energy density for any battery in the world 💡 @estesenergy, which recently came out of stealth, is a startup making exceptionally energy dense battery packs for different vehicles and use cases. Their product, called Magnus (Mag-in-US) is a monocast thermo-structural shell: protective structure, heat path and high-voltage enclosure all in one piece. In order to make this huge magnesium part safely and affordably, they use magnesium Thixomolding on a Gigacasting scale with a shot weight over 30 kg and cycle time of 1 minute. Using their propretary alloy, MgCarbonit is derived from AZ91D and AM60B alloys and mixed with carbon nanoparticles during the Thixomolding process. This mix achieves flame retardancy by elevating ignition temperature without conceding the castability that large-format thixomolding requires. The Magnus battery platform with its monocast thermo-structural shell delivers 225+ Wh/kg at the system level using commercially available nickel-based cells. This is a ~30% advantage over the 170 Wh/kg commercial baseline. 📰 Full article: industryarsenal.com/p/estes-… 📷: Estes’ mold
