Electric & Hybrid Vehicle

H V Wooding manufactures high-performance components for the hybrid and electric vehicle market, including precision busbars, motor laminations and bonded core packs. With more than 50 years of manufacturing experience and a strong track record in EV technologies, we support customers from prototype through to mid-volume production.

Our team collaborates closely with engineers to optimise design, material selection and tolerances, ensuring each project is efficient, reliable and cost-effective. From early prototyping to high-volume supply, we provide technical input that helps accelerate development and improve manufacturability without compromising performance.

We offer a wide choice of processes to suit different project requirements, including state-of-the-art wire erosion, laser cutting and stamping. Our in-house capability ensures the highest quality and repeatability, while bonded lamination stacks as thin as 0.1mm can be produced in cobalt irons and silicon steels. Facilities include advanced Charmilles EDM machines with automatic wire feeding, submerged cutting and capacity up to 800mm × 550mm × 500mm, supported by full inspection and quality assurance systems.

Our busbar production expertise covers both copper and aluminium, with options for insulation, sleeving, powder coating and electroplating. These are widely used in EV battery and drivetrain systems, where precision and electrical integrity are critical.

H V Wooding is actively engaged in low-carbon vehicle projects, supplying components for electric buses, commercial and construction vehicles, aerospace and rail applications. Our customers include global names such as Mercedes, McLaren, Williams Advanced Engineering, Ford and Rolls Royce.

TESTIMONALS

We would like to thank you once again for the contribution that you have made towards our success in the 2018 Formula One season, allowing us to win the fifth World Championship title in a row.

This year’s Championship has been both challenging and exciting at the same time and we could not have achieved these results with out your hard work, dedication and support.

— A Cowell, Managing Director, Mercedes AMG HPP

 

It quickly became apparent that the team at HV Wooding were capable of really adding to the performance of the components we were developing. 

 

They were not content with just providing what was initially required, they wanted to optimise both price and performance

— Glen Kirby, CERN

 

We are very pleased with the outcome of this new assembly, and the quality of the item you have delivered is excellent. It would seem the effort put into modelling it has really paid off. What I was hoping to achieve was a reduction in component count, weight and cost and we have achieved all of these. Consolidation of 5 main parts and their related fasteners into this one item. Weight reduction from 13kg down to 6kg! The cost reduction is also significant!
