- Hyundai Motor, Kia and Samsung SDI to accomplice on the event of robot-specific batteries for integration into service robots
- New batteries designed to beat house and capability limitations in robotics, promising efficiency enhancements together with enhanced power density, output and utilization time
- Partnership seeks to stabilize battery provide for robots and improve value competitiveness by market growth
- Joint advertising initiatives deliberate, with expertise showcase at ‘InterBattery 2025’ to focus on progress potential in international robotic battery market
Hyundai Motor Firm and Kia Company in the present day introduced an settlement to accomplice with Samsung SDI to develop high-performance batteries particularly for robots, with the intention of accelerating power density, output and utilization time considerably.
The three firms signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for this joint growth at Hyundai Motor Group’s Uiwang Analysis Middle. The occasion was attended by Dong Jin Hyun, Vice President and Head of Robotics LAB at Hyundai Motor and Kia, and Hans Cho, Government Vice President and Head of Strategic Advertising and marketing Staff at Samsung SDI.
“We’ll proceed our endeavors to develop high-performance batteries for robots with Samsung SDI, which has battery manufacturing capabilities. In the long run, we intention to boost battery provide stability for robots and obtain value competitiveness by market growth,” mentioned Dong Jin Hyun, Vice President and Head of Robotics LAB at Hyundai Motor and Kia. “By combining the superior expertise of the Robotics LAB with Samsung SDI’s battery expertise, we anticipate accelerating the event of aggressive robotic merchandise that meet numerous client wants.”
“We’re increasing our collaboration with Hyundai Motor and Kia within the robotic market,” mentioned Hans Cho, Government Vice President and Head of Strategic Advertising and marketing Staff at Samsung SDI. “Via this collaboration, we’ll introduce differentiated applied sciences and high-quality merchandise within the robotic battery market.”
The collaboration will mix Hyundai Motor, Kia and Samsung SDI’s assets and technical experience to develop batteries optimized for robots and combine them into numerous service robots.
At present, most sectors within the robotics business lack devoted batteries, so they’re pressured to make use of these designed for energy instruments or gentle electrical autos (LEVs). Resulting from robots’ complicated and irregular nature, house for battery set up is proscribed, and utilizing smaller cells reduces output capability.
To beat this problem, the collaboration focuses on creating a high-performance robotic battery optimized for restricted areas whereas enhancing power density to extend output and utilization time.
Underneath the settlement, Hyundai Motor and Kia’s Robotics LAB will consider the applying and efficiency enhancement of the newly developed battery for robots. They are going to use their collected technical experience to evaluate most cost and discharge efficiency, utilization time, and qualification life.
Samsung SDI will develop high-capacity supplies to enhance power density and optimize design to boost battery effectivity. That is anticipated to increase battery utilization time and enhance value competitiveness considerably. Each events plan to work carefully to ascertain this joint growth as a mannequin for innovation in robot-specific batteries.
Hyundai Motor and Kia can even have interaction in joint advertising with Samsung SDI to broaden the robotic market. They plan to showcase Hyundai Motor and Kia’s service robotic ‘DAL-e’ and Cell Robotic ‘MobED’, at Samsung SDI’s exhibit at ‘InterBattery 2025,’ March 5–7, in Seoul. They are going to exhibit the robots to guests and business stakeholders, showcasing the expansion potential of the robotic battery market.
Hyundai Motor and Kia’s Robotics LAB launched companies utilizing supply robots, automated electrical automobile charging robots, and superior facial recognition expertise on the ‘Factorial Seongsu’ constructing in Seoul final June. In November, they introduced commercialization plans for the wearable robotic ‘X-ble Shoulder’ after its unveiling, increasing their product line and main the institution of a ‘Robotics Whole Resolution.’
