Characteristics of enameled wires for electric vehicles

Excellent conductive performance

The conductivity of enameled wires is one of its most crucial performance indicators, influencing the efficiency and performance of electric vehicles. Enameled wires for electric vehicles typically utilize highly conductive materials such as pure copper, pure aluminum, or copper-clad aluminum as conductors to ensure efficient current transmission.

High-temperature resistance

Enameled wires for electric vehicles often employ insulation enamels like polyimide or polyesterimide with good high-temperature resistance, allowing them to operate at temperatures up to 240°C. This ensures their suitability for the elevated temperature environments generated by the heat produced during the operation of electric vehicle motors.

Corrosion resistance

Electric vehicles often encounter corrosive environments such as humidity and unfavorable acid-base conditions, demanding high corrosion resistance from enameled wires. Enameled wires for electric vehicles typically utilize insulation enamels with excellent corrosion resistance to ensure long-term performance in harsh conditions.

Winding processability

The winding processability of enameled wires is a crucial performance indicator, directly impacting the production efficiency and quality of electric motors. Enameled wires for electric vehicles commonly exhibit good winding processability, facilitating the winding and shaping of complex wiring configurations.

Reliability

Enameled wires with a well-designed insulation coating and high-quality copper/aluminum conductors can meet the stability and reliability requirements of automotive electrical systems, enhancing system lifespan.

Lightweight design

The use of copper-clad aluminum or pure aluminum conductor enameled wires in electric vehicle auxiliary systems can effectively reduce overall weight, contributing to the realization of lightweight electric vehicle designs. Cost Reduction

Mature production processes and lower customized batch costs make enameled wire production cost-effective. With good winding processability, it enhances electric motor production efficiency and reduces overall production costs.
