The forged aluminium battery bracket is a structural component of HGV that ensures the holding and protection of on-board power supply batteries. It supports the battery weight, absorbs vibrations and shocks generated by road use and protects the batteries from mechanical damage and weather.
Forged aluminium is the preferred material in this kind of application : its low density significantly reduces the vehicle’s unsprung weight, which is favourable for payload and fuel consumption, while its mechanical properties – fatigue resistance, dimensional stability and mechanical strength – ensure reliable support over the vehicle’s entire service life.
Forlam Forge manufactures forged aluminium brackets at Preciforge and Bourguignon Barré. Parts are available as-forged, machined or assembled, adapted to the specifications of HGV manufacturers and transport equipment OEMs.
