Problem
Aerospace, defense, and high‑performance vehicle programs rely on custom battery packs, yet traditional suppliers deliver low volumes at high cost with lead times measured in years. The legacy supply chain’s rigid designs and fragmented qualification processes create bottlenecks that delay program schedules and increase risk of defective packs.
Solution
Kyten delivers turn‑key, aerospace‑grade battery pack design, qualification, and manufacturing that compresses development cycles from years to weeks. By leveraging software‑defined test rigs and automated assembly lines, the company can iterate designs rapidly and scale production without sacrificing safety or performance. In‑house qualification capabilities eliminate external testing delays, while a modular architecture supports any cell chemistry, form factor, or pack geometry required by the customer. Integrated battery‑management systems (BMS) with selectable communication protocols provide real‑time health monitoring and fault protection. The end‑to‑end service enables OEMs and program integrators to meet aggressive launch schedules and volume targets while mitigating supply‑chain risk.
Target Audience
Primary customers are OEMs and program integrators developing commercial and defense aircraft, launch vehicles, spacecraft, marine vessels, and ground‑based platforms that require bespoke, high‑performance battery solutions.
Features
- Fully custom pack geometry and structure, supporting all cell chemistries, form factors, and material selections
- Integrated microcontroller‑based BMS with customer‑chosen communication interfaces (CAN, RS‑485, etc.) and built‑in safety features such as resettable fusing and thermal sensors
- Software‑defined test and manufacturing platform that automates cell‑to‑bus interconnect processes (wire‑bond, spot, laser welding) and accelerates qualification from months to days
- High‑rate production line capable of scaling to volume runs while maintaining aerospace‑grade reliability and traceability
- In‑house environmental and vibration qualification labs that certify packs against MIL‑STD and AS9100 standards on the same schedule as design
- Secure, purpose‑built transportation cases and logistics handling to protect packs during shipping and integration
- Real‑time data logging and cloud‑enabled health reporting for integration with vehicle control systems or ground‑station monitoring
