Company Overview

Ionworks Technologies Inc., established in 2023 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is transforming battery development through advanced simulation technology. Founded by Valentin Sulzer, Rob Timms, and Tom Tranter, the company offers an all-in-one battery simulation platform that reduces physical prototyping and significantly decreases development time and costs. Built on the foundation of PyBaMM, Ionworks bridges the gap between concept and production in battery design.

Battery Technology

Ionworks integrates sophisticated electrochemical and data-driven models to replicate real-world battery behavior. Its platform includes a parameter extraction system for matching simulations to specific battery types, a cloud-based simulation infrastructure for concurrent, code-free tests, and visualization tools for interpreting complex data. Advanced features include the Multi-Species Multi-Reaction Model (MSMR), enhanced pouch cell thermal models, and a physics-based sodium-ion battery model.

Products

All-in-one battery simulation platform powered by PyBaMM; tool converting PyBaMM models into Simulink or Simscape blocks; features include customizable parameter manipulation, multi-test cloud simulations, intuitive visualization dashboards, and thermal and multi-species reaction modeling.

Recent Projects

2023: launched service portfolio and PyBaMM-to-Simulink/Simscape conversion tool; partnered with Iontra on charge control simulations; awarded Faraday Institution Entrepreneurial Fellowship; completed Cleantech Open accelerator program.

Investors

Ionworks is a privately held battery simulation software company. Its growth has been supported by participation in the 2023 Cleantech Open accelerator and receipt of the Faraday Institution’s Entrepreneurial Fellowship in 2023.
