Chassis Structures
ESS applies advanced engineering expertise to the design and development of chassis structures, including front and rear cradles, EV battery trays, hydroformed rails, and low-pressure cast components. Their approach integrates simulation-driven design with manufacturability and mass optimization, ensuring each structure meets demanding crash, stiffness, and packaging requirements.
ESS stays ahead of emerging technologies—incorporating innovations like cell-to-chassis integration, gigacast aluminum underbodies, and modular battery enclosures that eliminate redundant structure and simplify assembly. They evaluate material strategies across steel, aluminum, and hybrid castings, leveraging hydroforming and deep-draw stamping to achieve tight radii, leak-tight enclosures, and scalable production. Whether supporting legacy ICE platforms or next-gen EV architectures, ESS delivers chassis solutions that balance structural integrity, thermal management, and cost efficiency.
