3D printed batteries? A very real offer from Sakuu and Porsche

Sakuu will be the company that achieves one of the most important technological breakthroughs in the sector of vehicle batteries and electrical appliances. Together with Porsche Consulting, they will build the first gigafactory to 3D print the aforementioned components. Its products will include lithium-ion batteries, as well as solid-state batteries. Although this project may seem a bit difficult to achieve or worthy of a sci-fi movie, the truth is that in the latest update published by Sakuu they have confirmed that they are already 3D printing the first batteries with a resounding success and the batteries are fully functional. They are manufactured in a variety of shapes and sizes in a pilot plant located in Silicon Valley, California. photo source: hybridosyelectricosThe company itself claims to be a pioneer in the successful use of this technology. CEO Robert Bagheri assured that the company was “the developer of the world’s first 3D-printed solid-state battery”. A partnership with Porsche Consulting can be very beneficial for both parties, as Sakuu will be able to benefit from Porsche’s experience in the design of large-scale factories, and the German firm will do the same in the production of the latest batteries.Sakuu aims to build several gigafactories to meet its goal of producing 200 GWh of batteries per year for its entire product line by 2030. The first two factories are expected to be built in 2024, although a specific location remains to be determined. determine. In his project, the 3D-printed batteries will have a fully sustainable composition and maximize production efficiency so they can be introduced internationally.For 3D printed solid state batteries, Sakuu will use its own proprietary Kavian manufacturing method. This will enable high-volume, automated and cost-effective production of Swift Print batteries of all shapes and sizes. This battery cell format has a higher capacity, energy density, and cycle life. In the same 2023 they will start sending the first prototypes to their customers to start the feasibility tests. photo source: hybridosyelectricosThis technology makes it possible to produce batteries of all shapes and sizes.See also: Neural networks to conquer the world.
