Bipolar plate design - scope of services

  • At the beginning of every application is the design of your bipolar plate. Testing and adjusting it with a view to production is part of our expertise.
  • Our focus during design analysis and optimization is not only on the manufacturability of your plate. We also consider those features for your plate that are crucial for economical series production.
  • If you do not have a finished design yet, we would be pleased to implement your idea as a CAD model for you. In this, you will benefit from our many years of expertise in the optimization of bipolar plates as well.

Benefits of metal for bipolar plates

At Graebener Bipolar Plate Technologies, we deliberately focus on manufacturing technologies for metallic plates for fuel cells and electrolyzers. In contrast to other materials, metal offers more advantages overall for the use of plates in fuel cells and electrolysers such as:

  • Lighter weight
  • Good recyclability
  • Homogeneous electrical conductivity
  • Good contact material
  • High thermal conductivity
  • High surface quality
  • Good forming properties
  • Mechanical stability/elasticity

Application areas

  • Engineering of producibility from CAD designs
  • Production of metal bipolar plates for fuel cell application
  • Production of metal separator plates for electrolysis application
  • Production of metal bipolar plates for heat exchanger application

Brand Graebener
Gräbener Maschinentechnik GmbH & Co. KG Graebener® Bipolar Plate Technologies is part of Graebener® Maschinentechnik, a medium-sized, family owned machine building company with locations in Netphen (Germany) and Houston (USA) as well as various international representatives. For 20 years, Graebener® has been one of the first companies to focus on the research and development of manufacturing processes and machines for fuel cell and electrolyzer components. The company has dedicated itself to setting the quality standard for manufacturing technologies by developing innovative processes and machines that help to manufacture fuel cell and electrolyzer components, such as the metallic bipolar plate, that are tailor-made, integrable, scalable and thus economically efficient. For this purpose, Graebener® accompanies all strategically important steps towards the optimally designed production line: Starting from engineering with a view to plate design and line concept via prototyping and small series production in the in-house production laboratory up to the customized production machine or line. Experience from more than 100 years of metal processing and worldwide customer-specific special solutions are incorporated into the holistic development partnership with the customer.
