How We Operate
HOW WE OPERATE
From new electrode materials to pack assembly, we can scale your battery technology from prototype to large scale manufacture
Although we typically work with clients whose product has already been proven at a medium development maturity level (TRL 7), we can also work with products at laboratory scale (TRL4).
Working together
As a development facility, we work alongside your team throughout the scale up and manufacturing processes so that you are fully aware and up-skilled in each of those processes, enabling you to transfer to full manufacturing stage. Our specialist staff offer consultancy and advisory support, as well as on-line training to up-skill your workforce ready for your own facility.
A typical project would include:
- Some design assessment and design for manufacture (DFM) – the customer remains the design authority for their product
- Technology transfer work into UKBIC to enable us to scale the product
- A mutually agreed, gated approach to trial build phases
- A,B,C – sample cell phases and initial manufacturing build phase
