Modular Battery & BMS Development Platform

The Modular Battery & BMS Development Platform takes learners and researchers through the entire battery development journey in a structured, hands-on way. It begins with cell preparation, where voltage levels are equalized to ensure every cell is safe and consistent. Next, the cell sorting process classifies cells by internal resistance, grouping only well-matched ones together to form reliable packs. Once cells are prepared, users move to battery pack assembly, experimenting with different series-parallel configurations to understand how voltage, capacity, and current scale with design. The assembled packs are then connected to the BMS development and validation system, where students can design, test, and refine protection logics, balancing strategies, and state estimation algorithms in real-time. Finally, the completed battery system is subjected to charge–discharge cycling and environmental testing, allowing users to validate pack performance, safety, and durability under realistic thermal and load conditions. This step-by-step approach makes the platform a complete ecosystem for education, research, and innovation in modern battery technology.
