Electric vehicle platforms introduce new structural challenges — from increased battery mass to stricter load‑path and crash‑energy requirements. In a recent feature in EV Engineering Online, L&L Products’ Korean sales Director Mun Su Kim explains how CBS and CCS technologies help OEMs manage stiffness, durability, impact performance, and NVH without adding unnecessary mass.
The article highlights how engineers can strengthen EV structures by:
- Reinforcing critical load paths around the battery enclosure
- Using composites to tune stiffness locally without blanket material additions
- Reducing stress concentrations and improving long‑term durability
- Integrating lightweight reinforcements directly at the body‑in‑white stage
- Leveraging continuous fiber profiles for directional stiffness across long spans
