Whitepaper: e-Mobility
Kill or cure for the metalworking industry?
A motor for an electrical vehicle is made up of around 16 components with only little need for machining. An internal combustion engine requires 49 parts that all need to be machined – and mostly to the highest standards. These figures alone give an indication of how the metalworking sector will be affected by vehicle manufacturers transitioning to e-mobility.
Perspectives for the metalworking industry
The Walter whitepaper shines a light on possible scenarios and solution approaches that metalworking companies will have to prepare for. Purely electrical motors are already expected to command a 22% market share by the year 2030, which will reduce the number of components relevant for the metalworking industry by about a third. When it comes to battery-powered electrical motors, the value-add for metalworking will even go down by an average of 64%.
