Free design workspace

Design custom battery packs for e-bikes, e-motos, drones, and weird one-off builds.

BatteryBee helps DIY builders trace odd cavities, plan cell layouts, preview spacers, cases, and busbars in 3D, and export CAD-ready files without bouncing between a dozen disconnected tools.

Best fit: custom geometries where packaging and manufacturability matter. If your pack is a commodity rectangle, BatteryBee may be more tool than you need.

Built for awkward pack shapes
Plan the geometry before you cut, print, or glue.
E-bike or e-moto pack with a service lid and cable exit
Long-range drone endurance pack in a constrained bay
Robot or field pack with keep-outs, spacers, and custom enclosure walls

Who BatteryBee is for

The strongest use case is not "any battery". It is the custom build where fit, service access, and manufacturability all need to line up.

E-bikes, e-motos, and scooters

Light-EV chassis packs

Plan around frame cavities, service lids, charger ports, and awkward chassis geometry before you print or machine anything.

Drones and airframes

Drone bays and payload packs

Model battery bays, connector routing, and enclosure constraints for endurance UAVs, payload modules, and field power.

One-off DIY builds

Odd geometries, repeatable outputs

When the pack shape is weird and you care about spacers, cases, or busbar layout, BatteryBee gives the geometry a home.

Read the docs

Envelope editor

Trace frame triangles, fuselage bays, and odd cavities with keep-outs and millimeter-precise dimensions.

Series editor

Paint series lanes per layer with live connection metrics and visibility controls.

Case editor

Add service lids, cable exits, and face cutouts so your printed enclosure matches the real build.

3D viewer

Orbit the live preview, switch between outline and solid envelope modes, and sanity‑check clearances.

Reports

See pack stats at a glance, voltage/power/heat charts vs current, OCV curves, and export a summary.

Export bundle

Generate STEP/STL for cases and lids, optional spacer STLs, busbar DXF, and a manifest for downstream fabrication.

What you can do

Go from a sketch to CAD files with electrical context in the loop. Edits update instantly, so iteration is cheap and confident.

Fit odd cavities

  • Trace frame triangles, drone bays, and custom enclosures
  • Set layers, wall thickness, and clearances
  • Parametric edits propagate everywhere

Hit your targets

  • Pick cell, series count, and capacity
  • Tune spacing and offsets with instant feedback
  • See utilisation, voltage, and pack stats live

Interlayer links, simplified

  • Presets for wire, sheet, or manual
  • Set link count or use detected
  • Override resistance when you have measurements

Busbar planning

  • Serpentine and straight runs
  • Estimates for length and resistance
  • DXF export when configured

Live validation

  • Orbit the 3D viewer and check clearances
  • Layer‑by‑layer visibility controls
  • Charts for voltage, power, and heat vs current

Manufacturing-ready outputs

  • STEP/STL for cases and lids
  • Optional spacer STLs and busbar DXF
  • JSON manifest and README for fabrication

How BatteryBee works

Start from the real enclosure problem, then carry the geometry through layout, validation, and export without losing the manufacturing context.

Explore the docs

Sketch the enclosure

Trace a frame cavity, drone bay, or oddball enclosure shape. Add keep-outs early so the layout starts from the real packaging problem.

Dial in cells and targets

Set the cell type, series and parallel goals, then tune spacing, offsets, and clearances while the pack metrics update live.

Check it in 3D

Inspect layer stacking, case walls, lids, and cable exits before you commit time to printing, machining, or hand assembly.

Export fabrication files

Generate STEP/STL, optional spacer STLs, and busbar DXF plus a manifest for the exact revision you want to build.

Start with the free workspace

Create an account, start sketching, and use the docs and use-case guides to get from an empty outline to a buildable export bundle.

The core workspace is free today, and optional build services can layer on later when you want help turning a design into parts.
