Axeon Power makes high power batteries for a range of demanding applications from seismic instrumentation to military robots. We aim to be "Bomb proof".

Design Considerations for High Power Batteries
 

For low power applications such as mobile phones or power tools where the typical cost of a battery may be £10 or less, batteries are often considered as consumables and battery maintenance is not usually a high priority. But for high power applications such as EVs and HEVs where batteries may cost thousands of pounds, maximising the Battery Life becomes a major design objective.

Deep cycle batteries are designed to be discharged down as much as 80% time after time, and have much thicker plates that a standard automotive battery.

Many high power batteries are also used in safety critical applications or for providing emergency power.

The overriding design goal is that they should be able to deliver their specified power whenever they are called upon to do so. For this the user needs to be able to monitor the condition of the battery (known as the State of Health) at any time and to be have available tools and procedures to maintain the battery in top working condition.

Thermal Management ensures that heat generation in high power applications is under control.

Axeon builds custom batteries using standard cells. This allows lower costs, sourcing flexibility throughout the project life and the ability to incorporate the latest Cell Chemistries whenever they become available.

Safety is paramount for the company and Axeon uses only intrinsically safe materials in the cells they specify.
