Elcon provides high strength and durable photochemically etched fuel cell plates that can withstand extreme environments in your applications. Photo etching offers fuel cell and electrolyzer plate engineers many advantages to combat their design, time, and cost challenges. The geometric complexity and tolerances offered by photochemical etching not only make it a desirable manufacturing process but, in some instances, the only technology suitable for critical components.

Benefits:

Product

  • Burr and stress-free surfaces that are flat, consistent and do not compromise stack bonding
  • Unlike other processes, photochemical etching does not create mechanical or thermal stress that may affect metallurgical properties
  • Multiple channel levels and patterns can be etched on the plate, including headers, collectors, and port features

Manufacturing

  • Dimensional repeatability
  • Channel accuracy to ±0.020 mm
  • Plate materials include aluminum, stainless steel and titanium
  • Volumes from rapid prototyping to full production

Cost Efficiency

  • Low cost digital tooling can be changed quickly and inexpensively to optimize designs
  • Increased design flexibility and complexity with no incremental cost
