Overview

Development programs need a battery supplier who can move at program speed. MonoLith™ packs are built on extruded aluminum enclosures with internal cross-members and adhesively bonded modules, providing structure capable of surviving flight test environments without the weight penalty of overbuilt commercial prototypes.

The BMS supports CAN, HVIL, dual contactors with precharge, and isolation monitoring. Cell voltage and temperature sensing, passive balancing, and VCU-compatible messaging are standard. Configuration is tailored per program. Every pack ships with a full interface control document, CAN message map, and STEP CAD, issued on contract execution, not at delivery.

EBS works earlier in the program lifecycle, covering prototype, development, and flight test support, where a responsive, technically direct supplier adds more value than a large-volume certified house with 18-month minimum lead times.

01
Send Spec
Submit voltage, capacity, envelope, and interface requirements. Engineering reviews for feasibility and flags fit issues before any commitment.
02
CAD and ICD Day One
On contract execution: STEP CAD, interface control document, CAN DBC, and LV harness pinout. Integration begins the same day.
03
Prototype Delivery
U.S. assembled in Colorado in 8–14 weeks. Functional test, cell traceability records, and test summaries delivered with hardware.

Where We Fit

Pre-certification and development phases. Programs that need hardware on the schedule, not on the wish list.

Electric Propulsion Development

Development and flight test articles for electric propulsion programs, pre-certification phase. Defined interfaces from day one and prototype turnaround without the 18-month lead times of large-volume suppliers.

What You Get

Structural Enclosure

Extruded aluminum walls, internal cross-members, adhesively bonded modules. Designed for flight test vibration and shock environments.

Defined Interfaces from Day One

STEP CAD, interface control document, CAN message map, LV pinout, and mounting drawings delivered on contract execution.

BMS for Program Integration

CAN, HVIL, dual contactors with precharge, isolation monitoring, cell V/T sensing, and passive balancing. VCU-compatible messaging configured per program.

Layered Safety Architecture

Cell CID, module wire-bond fusing behavior, pack-level fuse, isolation monitoring, and HVIL: multiple independent protection layers.

Traceability Documentation

Cell lot traceability, assembly records, and test summaries. Structured for AS9100 program workflows. EBS operates under internal quality procedures; AS9100 roadmap in progress.

U.S. Assembly and Functional Test

Module-to-pack build, functional test, and documentation performed in Colorado.

Why Aerospace Teams Choose EVolve Battery

Not a distributor. Not a large-volume certified house. Direct access to the engineers building your pack.

Fast from Spec to Hardware

Prototype turnaround in 8–14 weeks without the minimum-order constraints and 18-month lead times of large-volume suppliers.

Defined Interfaces from Day One

CAD, CAN DBC, LV pinout, and ICD issued on contract execution, not at delivery. Integration work starts immediately.

Structural Integrity for Flight Test

Extruded aluminum enclosures, internal cross-members, and adhesively bonded modules sized for the shock and vibration profiles of airborne programs.

U.S. Final Assembly and Validation

Module-to-pack build, functional test, and program documentation performed in Colorado. Not offshore-assembled and rebranded.

Traceability for AS9100 Workflows

Cell lot traceability, assembly records, and test summaries structured to slot into AS9100-aligned programs. Note: EBS is not currently AS9100 certified.

Responsive Engineering Contact

Direct access to the engineers designing and assembling your pack. Program-speed communication without layers of account management.

Procurement & Deliverables

Standard deliverables with every pack: CAD (STEP), interface control document, CAN message map, test summary, installation and handling notes.

Quality & Compliance Notes

  • EBS operates under internal quality procedures. AS9100 certification is on the roadmap; not currently certified.
  • EBS does not currently offer DO-160 qualified or flight-certified builds. Work sits in the development and pre-certification phase of the program lifecycle.
  • Cell lot traceability, assembly records, and functional test summaries are included as standard documentation with every order.
