U-Jin: E-Mobility
U-Jin Tech Corp. is market leader for fully automated friction welding machines for making dissimilar material joints in the high-voltage circuits of electric vehicles
Friction Welded Battery Poles
U-Jin Tech Corp. manufactures friction welding machines for manufacturers of batteries in electric cars, electric buses and electric delivery vans. The batteries in these vehicles consist of several cells that have to be connected in series to obtain the desired high voltage. The task is to connect the minus pole made of copper with the plus pole made of aluminium. This requires special welding processes at the battery manufacturer because these materials cannot be welded with conventional fusion welding processes.
Friction Welded Battery Connection Tabs
Leading battery manufacturers in China are already using more than 15 friction welding machines from U-Jin Tech Corp. to produce copper-aluminum mixed material joints between cylindrical battery terminals and rectangular battery tabs.

Bimetal Cable Lugs for Aluminium Cables
Bimetal cable lugs are incrasingly used for aluminium cables. These consist of aluminium in the area surrounding the strands in order to prevent corrosion in the area of the crimped or soldered package of strands. However, since aluminium is not sufficiently creep-resistant under long-term stress, the eye in the area of the screw connection with other components is normally made of copper. U-Jin's friction welding machines offer a cost-optimized way of producing these mixed material joints in large quantities while meeting the highest quality requirements.
