Apple is reportedly collaborating with Chinese battery manufacturers to develop electric vehicle (EV) power solutions. Although the company had previously put its internal EV development on hold, recent insider reports suggest that Apple has resumed research into related components. However, sources indicate that this work is not a top priority and is being pursued at a more measured pace. For further insights, we reached out to our car electronics editor.
According to insiders, the Chinese battery manufacturer working with Apple is Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL). CATL is one of China’s leading battery producers, rivaling companies like BYD and Lishen. Notably, CATL was spun off from ATL, which is Apple’s largest battery supplier. This partnership could signal a strategic move by Apple to secure key components for future automotive projects.
In April of this year, the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) added Apple to its list of companies authorized to conduct autonomous vehicle testing in the state. The update confirmed that Apple is quietly advancing its self-driving technology. Despite sending a letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2016, Apple has remained largely silent on its autonomous vehicle initiatives and has not officially commented on related rumors.
This collaboration with CATL highlights Apple’s growing interest in the automotive sector, particularly in power systems and smart mobility. While the company may not be rushing into full-scale EV production, it is clearly laying the groundwork for future innovations. As developments continue, we will keep you updated with the latest news and in-depth analysis. Stay tuned for more updates on car electronics and emerging technologies.
Plate-Grid
The plate-grid is a kind of Printer Accessories.
The cartridge is irradiated by laser beam to adsorb toner, and then the toner is hot pressed by fixing roller for printing. In this process, there will be part of toner residual, which can not be "granules returned to the warehouse"; Automatic cleaning function is not adsorbed new toner particles and directly print, will remain toner away, fully ensure the next printing effect. And the plate-grid plays an important role. When high voltage generator to a high voltage electrode, wire electrode with reseau formed between a strong electric field, and release the corona, wire electrode and the photosensitive drum ionizes the air between the air ions migrate to the drum surface, make the photoconductor (drum) surface is full of charge, so can spare toner "adsorption to warehouse", so as to save toner, The purpose of reducing environmental pollution.
Printer Plate-Grid is widely used in high-end Printer, photocopier, laser printer cartridge. Our charging network plate grid is made by SUS304 stainless steel. We use fine metal etching process, and we can guarantee that the etched plate grid has dense charging network, small diameter, etching straight lines, no broken lines and no notch. We custom Plate-Grid with drawings provided by customers.
