The battery fits your equipment, not the other way around.

Batteries Prod designs and manufactures custom lithium batteries in France for forklifts, stackers, aerial platforms, AGVs, AMRs, and lifting equipment. Your duty cycles, machine, and uptime requirements guide each project.

Six parameters to define your battery

Operating conditions allow the engineering team to define a coherent architecture before prototyping.

Use

Machine mission

Equipment type, load, speed, lifting frequency, and working environment.

Energy

Required runtime

Shift duration, daily cycles, and the required margin between charging periods.

Power

Loads and current peaks

Continuous power, start-up or lifting peaks, and auxiliary motors.

Mechanical

Envelope and integration

Dimensions, target weight, mounting, connectors, and battery access.

Operations

Charging and uptime

Downtime, opportunity charging, quick replacement, or continuous operation.

System

BMS and communication

Protection, data, machine interfaces, and diagnostic or monitoring requirements.

One shared requirement: keep the equipment available

Mission, operating pace, and integration determine the technical answer, always focused on operational continuity.

  • Forklifts

    Traction and lifting power for sustained industrial duty cycles.

  • Electric stackers

    Compact integration and controlled access for charging or replacement.

  • Aerial platforms

    On-board energy adapted to travel and work-at-height phases.

  • AGVs and AMRs

    Runtime, opportunity charging, and communication with the mobile system.

  • Lift tables

    Power supply sized for repeated loads and the available integration space.

  • Mobile equipment

    Custom architecture for non-standard material handling machines.

Design around productive machine time

Downtime can disrupt a production line or warehouse. The architecture therefore prioritises runtime, opportunity charging, or quick replacement.

  • Sizing based on daily duty cycles
  • Management of lifting-related power peaks
  • Hot-swap option where quick replacement is relevant
  • Charging strategy adapted to available downtime

The operating model determines the right balance between energy, power, and uptime.

An architecture designed as a machine subsystem

Battery, electronics, and interfaces are developed together for controlled, testable integration ready for series production.

Quick replacement

Hot swap reduces downtime when site operations require battery rotation.

Scalable energy

Parallel-connectable batteries address selected capacity, power, or redundancy requirements.

Embedded control

The BMS protects the cells, monitors the pack, and exchanges data with the equipment.

The BMS connects the battery to the equipment

Developed with the pack, the embedded electronics supervise the battery and its exchanges with the machine.

Supervision

  • Protection against abnormal electrical and thermal conditions
  • Cell measurement and balancing
  • Current peak management
  • Battery status monitoring

System integration

  • Machine interfaces, including CAN Bus
  • Status data useful to operations
  • Diagnostics adapted to the project
  • Integrated hardware and software development
Batteries Prod battery production facility in France
Design, manufacturing, control, and traceability are integrated into the project path.

From field requirements to series production

Engineering, testing, and manufacturing support the move from specification to prototype and then to series production.

  • Integrated engineering for battery architecture, electronics, and BMS
  • Prototyping and functional testing before industrialisation
  • Manufacturing in France with controls and traceability
  • Systematic testing of every battery before shipping

Frequently asked questions before a study

Machine type, operating conditions, runtime, electrical data, envelope, charging, and forecast volumes are enough for an initial discussion.

Your machine sets the constraints. Let’s build the battery around them.
