Interfaces are defined from the stated operating context and available component documentation.

A complete schematic is not required. Start with battery, voltage, current and charging context if drawings are not ready.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

What this subsystem includes

Define the power path as a connected subsystem, not as an isolated battery, charger or distribution component.

01

Battery & BMS

Battery pack context, BMS interfaces, voltage range and load profile establish the operating envelope.

02

Power distribution

Distribution branches, switching devices and downstream loads define how available power reaches each subsystem.

03

Charging & docking

Onboard charging, offboard charging and docking contacts introduce different electrical and mechanical interfaces.

04

Protection & interfaces

Fusing, relays, isolation, grounding, connectors and documentation boundaries must be defined together.

STARTING POINT

What to define first

Start with operating context and the interfaces already selected. Exact drawings can follow when the architecture is still developing.

Operating envelope

State the voltage range, continuous and peak load context, duty cycle and available battery information.

Charging method

Identify onboard, offboard or docking-based charging and the available charger or station-side interface.

Distribution context

List drives, compute, sensors, auxiliaries and any isolated or switched branches.

Interface evidence

Provide connector references, wiring diagrams, datasheets or interface notes already available.

INTERFACE DEPENDENCIES

How the power interfaces connect

A change at one power interface can affect the permissible voltage range, current path, switching logic, protection strategy and documentation required elsewhere in the subsystem.

INTEGRATION DECISIONS

Power decisions that shape the request

These decisions determine which interfaces, documents and engineering questions belong in the same request.

01

Voltage and load envelope

Separate nominal conditions from minimum, maximum, continuous and peak operating context.

02

Charging and docking interface

Define charger location, docking contacts, mating conditions and station-side responsibilities.

03

Distribution and switching

Map branches, relays, contactors, precharge context and the loads that must be isolated or switched.

04

Protection and documentation

Identify fuse, breaker, grounding and isolation requirements alongside the requested engineering files.

BOUNDARIES

What this capability does not cover

  • This page does not represent complete robot or machine-level electrical design.
  • Battery safety certification, charger compliance certification and final system electrical validation remain outside this page unless expressly included in a signed statement of work.
  • Compatibility among third-party batteries, BMS units, chargers and docking hardware requires project-specific confirmation.
  • The customer remains responsible for final installation, system validation, regulatory approval and market-entry requirements.

Product Integration & Compliance

SERVICE SCOPE & RESPONSIBILITIES

Defined inputs, deliverables, boundaries and acceptance.

This published scope is a starting point for quotation. A signed statement of work may add, remove or revise individual items.

Service Overview

Battery, BMS, charger, docking contact, isolated power distribution and protection coordination for robot power systems.

What this covers

  • Power distribution, battery / BMS interface, charger or docking contact review, protection coordination and documentation packaging.
  • Load profile, voltage range, grounding, isolation and protection requirements define the power system review scope.

Best fit when

  • Battery / BMS, charger or docking contact details affect component selection.
  • Voltage range, peak current draw or load profile must be reviewed before RFQ.
  • Grounding, isolation, fuse, relay or protection requirements affect the wiring path.
  • Power documents, wiring diagrams or controlled files must be included in the request.

Required Customer Inputs

Required input

  • Application context
  • Voltage range
  • Current draw / load profile
  • Battery pack and BMS context
  • Charger or docking contact interface
  • Protection / fuse / relay requirements
  • Grounding or isolation requirement
  • Cable / connector constraints
  • Electrical or mechanical drawings
  • Required documents: wiring diagram, interface map, datasheet bundle or controlled file request
  • Quantity and timeline

Included Deliverables

Possible review outputs

  • Requirement and interface review record
  • Power interface checklist
  • Wiring or interface document request
  • Related SKU / category / integration path recommendation
  • Controlled file request status
  • RFQ-ready power system summary

Delivery boundary

  • Engineering sample or project package support
  • Power distribution and protection coordination review
  • Wiring diagrams, BMS interface notes, charger datasheets and controlled STEP / 2D records are reviewed before file release
  • Customer installation, system validation and final safety assessment remain required

Excluded Services

Not included unless expressly stated in a signed statement of work:

  • complete machine design;
  • system-level risk assessment;
  • CE, UKCA, UL or other product certification;
  • functional-safety validation;
  • independent safety approval;
  • professional-engineer certification;
  • regulatory filing;
  • destructive qualification testing;
  • final production qualification;
  • final-user documentation;
  • approval of the customer’s complete system.

Assumptions

  • Conclusions are based on the requirements and records available at the time of review.
  • Published and customer-supplied documents may require engineering confirmation before they are used for a final design decision.
  • Any operating condition, interface, safety or market requirement not provided remains an open item.

Customer Responsibilities

The customer is responsible for providing complete and accurate:

  • operating conditions;
  • loads and duty cycles;
  • dimensional constraints;
  • electrical and control interfaces;
  • environmental conditions;
  • safety requirements;
  • destination market;
  • regulatory and certification requirements.

Acceptance Criteria

  • The agreed deliverable matches the approved inputs and written service scope.
  • Open assumptions, exclusions and deviations are identified in the service record.
  • Acceptance of a service deliverable does not constitute complete system approval, certification or production qualification.

Revision Allowance

  • Revision allowance is defined in the approved quotation or signed statement of work.
  • A revision addresses the agreed deliverable against unchanged inputs; new requirements are handled through Change Control.

Change Control

Changes to an approved requirement, drawing, interface, operating condition or acceptance criterion require a written Change Request.

A Change Request may affect price, schedule, tooling, minimum order quantity, performance, validation and documentation.

ENGINEERING SERVICE SCOPE

EmbodyStack engineering services support product selection, feasibility evaluation, customization, documentation preparation, prototype development and integration review.

Unless expressly included in a signed statement of work, the service does not constitute complete system design, system certification, independent safety validation, production qualification, legal or regulatory advice or approval of the customer’s final machine.

Results depend on the accuracy and completeness of the customer’s stated operating conditions, loads, duty cycle, interfaces, environmental requirements, safety requirements and target-market requirements.

Changes to these inputs may invalidate previous conclusions and require a revised scope, quotation or schedule.
