In these interviews, you\u2019ll meet the team and the pioneering technologies that are making Comau the partner of choice for some of the world\u2019s biggest Electrification companies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The third interview of the series features Craig Allen, who will talk about Comau\u2019s cell formation strategy and products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please introduce yourself and tell us about your role in Comau <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Name is Craig Allen and I am the portfolio manager for Comau\u2019s cell formation products and solutions. This means that I am responsible for defining the products that we will develop regarding battery cell formation, as well as orchestrating the prototyping, testing and validation of those products.  There is also a customer focused element to the role, where I assist the team in reviewing RFQ\u2019s (Request for Quote), preparing offers and presenting our solutions to the customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

Tell us about\u00a0Battery\u00a0Innovation Days\u00a0and what you presented<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Battery Innovation Days was an important opportunity to present our current products, and where we are with our cell formation technology developments.  Cell formation is a collection of processes which are performed at the end of the cell production cycle<\/strong>. It was really exciting to show what we are able to offer to the \u201cglobal\u201d market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

What were you able to achieve during the event? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had two main objectives for the event: to speak with potential customers<\/strong>, understand their needs and present our solutions and competencies<\/strong>; and to collect feedback from the collective industry regarding cell formation. I was able to do both of these things, which is great for Comau and for me personally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Please share your thoughts as to why Comau is the best choice of partner for customers in the Electrification sector.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comau\u2019s fully integrated approach to e-Mobility allows us to be a turn-key supplier of expertise, process design, product development and equipment from the very initial phases of a customer\u2019s project<\/strong>. This allows us to offer a single-source solution that benefits from the added value of Comau\u2019s  flexibility, proactivity, and ability to think out of the box<\/p>\n\n\n\n
