BATTERY PACKAGING

Special certified crates for batteries.

FROM DEVELOPMENT TO SERIAL PRODUCTION

At STEINBAUER, we develop and manufacture shipping crates for batteries and battery systems. We adapt the design to the dimensions, weight, battery type, method of handling and the requirements of the specific transport project.

DESIGNED FOR SAFE TRANSPORT

We combine development with prototype production and the manufacture of battery mock-ups for testing purposes, design verification and testing. Depending on project requirements, we also prepare the packaging for dangerous goods testing at BAM or a BAM-recognised testing facility.

Once the solution is approved, we ensure repeatable serial production in our own production plant.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT BATTERY PACKAGING

Yes. The design is based on the parameters of the battery, the mode of transport, handling and the required mode of use. We prepare the design, the prototype and the production documentation.

Yes. Development can include the production of a prototype and verification testing of the design before serial production starts.

Yes. Depending on the nature of the project, the design and documentation can be prepared for the prescribed tests, and testing can be coordinated at BAM or a BAM-recognised testing facility. The scope of testing is always governed by the classification of the battery and the required transport regime.

We design packaging with regard to the relevant requirements for the transport of dangerous goods. If type approval and UN marking are required for the project, the solution must pass the corresponding testing and approval process.

Depending on the project, we combine plywood, OSB, solid wood, steel elements, technical foams, fixation systems and other materials needed for safe handling and transport.

Yes. We develop internal fixation and damping systems that limit unwanted movement and help protect the battery against mechanical stress during transport.

Yes. After development is completed and the design approved, we transfer the solution into repeatable serial production with controlled manufacturing processes.

We develop solutions according to the specific application – from individual batteries and modules to large battery systems. The specific design is always based on the transport classification and the technical requirements of the project.

Yes. We handle development, design, prototyping, production and assembly with our own capacities. We coordinate external certification or approval tests according to the requirements of the project.

Yes. Our production technologies allow single-piece, small-batch and serial production, including marking and assembly.

EVERYTHING UNDER ONE ROOF

From the first design through prototyping and testing to serial production, we keep the entire process under control. The result is a technically well-thought-out and repeatable packaging solution for battery logistics.

1. Development and design
We design the crate and the internal fixation according to the battery, the transport regime and the customer’s requirements.

  • Structural design and 3D development
  • Prototype production
  • Design optimisation
  • Preparation for serial production

2. Materials and construction
We combine materials according to the required strength, weight and manner of use.

  • Plywood selected for strength
  • Solid wood with IPPC
  • Steel structural elements
  • Technical foams and fixation materials
  • Barrier and supplementary materials with reduced flammability
  • Individual marking

3. Testing and approval
We prepare the prototype for the required mechanical and transport tests. In the case of regulated packaging, testing can be coordinated at BAM or a BAM-recognised testing facility; the specific tests and approvals depend on the classification and use of the packaging.

4. Internal fixation
We design precise fixation and damping systems for the safe positioning of the battery and the limitation of movement during handling and transport.

5. Serial production
After the design is approved, we transfer the solution into stable serial production with an emphasis on repeatability, precision and quality control.

6. Logistics
We deliver the finished crates with our own transport or through proven logistics partners.

From development to series – one solution, one partner.
