Innomech Develops Automated Fuel Cell Stack Manufacturing System for AFC Energy

Fuel cells are one of the most promising new forms of energy generation. The technology is clean, quiet and efficient but the hundreds of layers in a commercial-scale fuel cell stack and the number of stacks needed to generate sufficient power make it almost impossible to manually assemble them at speed. Cambridgeshire-based GB Innomech (Innomech) has designed and recently completed a novel automated manufacturing system that AFC Energy will use to assemble five stacks per day.
