In the realm of electric vehicles, enhancing driving range is a significant challenge. At NAGASE, we are contributing to the improvement of driving range through the miniaturization and lightweighting of electric vehicle components, utilizing collaborative patented technology with our esteemed partner, Atecs CO.,LTD, known for its high technical expertise.
As the global electric vehicle (xEV) market surges, manufacturers face growing pressure to deliver high-performance components at scale without compromising quality. In Part 1, we explored how ATECS’ advanced insert molding technology meets the complex demands of power module cases. In the Part 2, we highlight how ATECS is scaling its impact—through full automation of its production line and global expansion efforts, including the launch of AIM (ATECS Insert Molding Mexico S.A. de C.V.), a joint venture with NAGASE in Mexico designed to serve the North American xEV market.
The electric powertrain in electric vehicles (EVs) is the core system responsible for driving the vehicle. Among its key components, power modules based on power semiconductors have seen remarkable advancements. Today, we introduce ATECS Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "ATECS"), headquartered in Higashi-Osaka, with manufacturing sites in Japan and China, and a new facility scheduled to start production in Mexico later this year. ATECS is a partner of NAGASE specializing in power module cases—critical for efficiently transmitting the power converted by power modules.
To achieve compact, high-output, and high-efficiency electric vehicle (xEV) motors, the market is responding with higher currents, higher voltages, and faster rotational speeds. As motor speeds increase, heat generated by iron loss at high RPMs becomes a critical issue that necessitates effective cooling methods. One promising solution is oil cooling using Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF), which has gained industry attention. However, there is a concern that adhesives used in motor insulation may degrade when exposed to ATF. In response to this challenge, NAGASE Mobility, in collaboration with Kawamura Sangyo Co., Ltd., introduces “Namli®,” an adhesive-free insulation material designed to help future-proof xEV motors.

Electric vehicle (EV) batteries are evolving rapidly, driven by factors like resource distribution and economic policies. Key research areas include battery capacity, which is crucial for determining the range of electric vehicles; safety measures to prevent fires and other major hazards; and the efficient procurement of materials necessary for battery production. In this article, Kazuo Yajima, President of Blue Sky Technology Inc., shares his expert perspective on these issues. Formerly the Head of EV Energy Development at Nissan, where he led the development of the first-generation Leaf's battery, he now oversees the design and development of electric vehicle platforms, powertrains, and lithium-ion battery research.
