Heat Ventilation Air-Conditionning (HVAC)
Most automotive OEMs currently use R1234yf as the refrigerant of choice in the HVAC (Heat Ventilation & Air Conditioning) systems of their electric vehicles.
However, due to stricter environmental legislation regarding PFAs, many OEMs and thermal management system suppliers anticipate that regulations banning R1234yf will be progressively implemented in the coming years, and that the only viable alternative refrigerants will then be R744 (CO2) and R290 (Propane) natural refrigerants.
CO2 accumulators and Propane receiver driers are aluminum pressure vessels that are critical components of these new automotive HVAC systems. For cost-efficiency and maximum product efficiency and lifespan, their manufacturing requires a joining process that reduces material use, minimizes Total Cost of Ownership, avoids pollution by particles and ensures good corrosion resistance. MPW (Magnetic Pulse Welding) is the only viable option.
High Voltage Wire Harnesses
Electrification of heavy-duty vehicles is driving the demand for larger diameter wire sizes. MPC provides the most robust crimp with the lowest resistance and highest compaction. Pull testing results exceed requirements vs traditional crimping processes.
