ODM Service

ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) services go beyond OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) production by covering product research, design, and optimization. For drone batteries, Racepow provides an end-to-end solution from concept development to mass production, ensuring the product meets market demands and maintains a competitive edge.

1. Product Research & Design

  • Market Research & Demand Analysis:
    • Study battery requirements for different types of drones (agricultural, surveying, inspection, logistics, racing, etc.).
    • Analyze market trends to provide forward-thinking product solutions.
  • Battery Solution Design:
    • Select the appropriate battery cell type (Li-ion, LiPo, LiFePO4, solid-state batteries, etc.).
    • Customize battery voltage, capacity, size, and shape to optimize endurance and load capacity.
    • Develop solutions for high discharge rates, energy density, or lightweight battery packs.
  • Smart BMS Development:
    • Design a high-safety Battery Management System (BMS) with overcharge, over-discharge, and short-circuit protection.
    • Support smart communication protocols (CAN, UART, RS485) for remote monitoring and data analysis.
    • Customize Bluetooth/WiFi features to enable real-time battery status monitoring via mobile apps.
  • Appearance & Structural Design:
    • Custom battery casing options (soft pack, plastic shell, aluminum alloy, carbon fiber, etc.).
    • Waterproof, shockproof, and temperature-resistant designs for harsh environments.

2. Manufacturing & Process Optimization

  • Supply Chain Management & Material Selection:
    • Source high-quality battery cells from China, Japan, and Korea.
    • Ensure reliability of key components such as BMS chips, connectors, and wiring.
  • Efficient Production Processes:
    • Utilize automated production equipment to enhance consistency and efficiency.
    • Apply advanced welding and sealing technologies to improve battery stability and durability.
  • Prototyping & Mass Production:
    • Conduct small-batch trial production to refine the process before full-scale manufacturing.

3. Quality Testing & Certification Support

  • Battery Safety Testing:
    • Conduct charge-discharge cycle, overcharge, over-discharge, and short-circuit protection tests.
    • Perform high-temperature, low-temperature, vibration, and drop tests to ensure stability in harsh conditions.
  • International Certification Support:
    • Obtain necessary certifications based on target markets (US, Europe, Southeast Asia, Middle East, etc.), such as UN38.3, CE, FCC, UL, IEC62133, etc.
    • Provide MSDS, hazardous material transportation reports, and ensure compliance with global shipping regulations.

4. Branding Customization & Software Development

  • Custom Branding & Appearance:
    • Print custom logos and labels on battery casings.
    • Design personalized packaging, user manuals, and product documentation.
  • Software & App Development:
    • Develop exclusive battery management software for PC and mobile monitoring.
    • Integrate smart scheduling and remote diagnostics to enhance battery operation and maintenance.

5. Logistics & After-Sales Support

  • Global Logistics Services:
    • Handle hazardous battery transportation while complying with international shipping regulations.
    • Offer multiple shipping options (air, sea) to optimize delivery efficiency.
  • After-Sales Technical Support:
    • Provide long-term technical assistance, including battery maintenance, software updates, and performance optimization.
    • Offer remote diagnostics to quickly resolve customer issues and improve user experience.

Differences Between ODM & OEM

Service Scope OEM (Manufacturing Only) ODM (Design + Manufacturing)
Product R&D Provided by the client Fully handled by the manufacturer
Customization Level Limited to branding and minor adjustments Full customization from battery cells to BMS
Manufacturing Production based on client specifications Optimized by ODM manufacturer
Brand Ownership Client’s brand Customizable for clients
After-Sales Support Basic services Long-term technical support
