Custom Battery Pack Design Considerations for Performance and Safety
Custom battery pack design plays a crucial role in ensuring optimal performance, longevity, and safety across a wide range of applications. Whether you're designing for high-power industrial systems, lightweight consumer electronics, or mission-critical medical devices, every aspect of battery selection and integration impacts efficiency, reliability, and compliance.
This webinar will explore key design factors, including how different battery chemistries, such as Li-Ion, LiFePO4, and NiMH affect performance, safety, and cycle life. We’ll discuss the importance of balancing capacity and voltage to meet power demands while maximizing efficiency. Charging configurations also play a major role, whether prioritizing fast charging or long-term battery longevity. Additionally, environmental conditions, including temperature extremes and space constraints, influence battery performance, requiring careful design considerations.
Beyond optimizing performance, safety, and reliability are paramount in battery pack design. A well-engineered battery management system (BMS) ensures continuous monitoring of voltage, current, and temperature, while protection circuits help prevent short circuits, overvoltage, and thermal runaway. Meeting safety regulations is also critical, with compliance with UL, IEC, and UN 38.3 transportation standards being essential for market acceptance.
To tie everything together, we’ll examine a real-world case study, walking through the challenges of designing a high-performance custom battery pack. This includes how specific customer requirements influenced the selection of chemistry, form factor, and protection features, as well as the engineering solutions that delivered improved efficiency, safety, and compliance. The session will highlight key takeaways and measurable results that can guide future battery design decisions.
Join us for this in-depth discussion and learn how custom battery pack design can help optimize performance, enhance safety, and meet the demands of your specific application.
