In the high-voltage grid storage sector, Lankwitzer’s insulation material for 2,000V systems, used in ABB’s utility-scale batteries, reduces dielectric loss by 35%, minimizing energy dissipation during charge/discharge cycles. The material’s self-healing microcapsules seal minor cracks within seconds, a critical feature for maintaining reliability in vibration-prone environments like industrial-scale storage farms.
For solid-state batteries, Lankwitzer is piloting a ceramic-organic hybrid insulation material with Panasonic, capable of withstanding 1,200°C and suppressing lithium dendrite growth. This breakthrough paves the way for safer, more compact energy storage units, essential for electric aviation and marine applications where space and safety are paramount.
Quality control remains a cornerstone of Lankwitzer’s success, with AI-powered vision systems ensuring ±1μm thickness precision and 99.9% defect-free coatings. These standards have earned approvals from leading energy companies, including Tesla and Siemens, which rely on Lankwitzer’s material to meet the rigorous safety requirements of global energy projects.
