DWFritz has the experience and expertise to develop efficient and reliable automation systems for fuel cell manufacturing.Â
While traditional fuel cell production has not typically required sophisticated automation to produce the MEA (membrane electrode assembly), environmental concerns and oil price spikes are increasing demand for fuel cells and driving manufacturers towards automation to control costs and improve quality. This trend largely focuses on replacing expensive platinum catalyst and the PEM (proton exchange membrane) with less expensive materials. Producing these exotic membranes has increased the complexity of machines benefiting this industry.
Another trend relying on precision automation is miniaturization. As fuel cell layers get smaller, tolerances become more exacting. DWFritz Automation has expertise in automating the assembly of the MEA resulting in reduced material waste, faster throughput and minimal contact with sensitive membrane material.
