By precisely controlling the impact velocity, it enables exceptional channel accuracy and thickness uniformity – ideal for flow plates in fuel cells and electrolyzers.
thyssenkrupp Automation Engineering is a business unit of the automotive segment of the industrial group thyssenkrupp AG.
With a focus on drive and battery assembly systems – particularly for electric mobility – the company offers high-quality, innovative automation solutions for series production.
Around 1,100 employees work for Automation Engineering across ten countries on three continents.
Daniel Vallin, CEO of Cell Impact, says: “They have extensive experience in automation and industrialization, and are simply a highly suitable partner for us.
“Based on Cell Impact Forming, our unique and patented forming technology, we can scale the business together with thyssenkrupp by developing, marketing, and supplying cost-effective and high-quality flow plates to customers worldwide.”
During several years, Cell Impact has been developing forming technology and other process steps to enable industrial-scale production of flow plates once market demand is established.
The company has already manufactured and delivered several million flow plates to customers in Asia, North America, and Europe.
The new cooperation agreement builds on a Letter of Intent that the parties agreed upon in July 2025.
