In addition to being the first and only company in Türkiye producing aviation/helicopter battery systems with Ni-Cd chemistry, ASPİLSAN Enerji is also the largest battery manufacturer in the country.

ASPİLSAN Enerji provides all its solutions and services under the following quality management certifications:
• IRIS ISO 22163: International Railway Industry Standard
• AQAP 2110: NATO Quality Assurance Requirements for Design, Development and Production
• ISO 9001:2015: Quality Management Systems Standard of the International Organization for Standardization
• ISO 14001: Environmental Management Systems
• ISO 45001: Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems

ASPİLSAN Enerji started mass production of its Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Cylindrical Cell ASPİLSAN INR18650A28 in June 2022 and became the first company in Europe to mass-produce lithium-ion 18650 cells. The design, development, and production of the cell are entirely domestic and national. All intellectual and industrial property rights of the cell belong to ASPİLSAN Enerji.

The chemistry and composition of the ASPİLSAN INR18650A28 is nickel-rich lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide. Its size is 18650, capacity is 2800 mAh, and nominal voltage is 3.65 V. ASPİLSAN Enerji’s lithium-ion 18650 cell has proven to offer higher discharge rates and the ability to operate at lower temperatures compared to similar-capacity cells of well-known certified brands.

The lithium-ion cell production facility has an annual production capacity of 220 MWh. The production line is capable of manufacturing 21,000,000 cells per year. The facility infrastructure and production line are designed not only to produce cells with NMC chemistry but also to manufacture 18650 and 21700 lithium-ion cells with NCA, LFP, LCO, LMO, and LTO chemistries.

The safety and performance certifications obtained for the ASPİLSAN INR18650A28 cell are as follows:
• UN DOT 38.3: Safety Test Standard for International Air Transportation
• IEC 62133-2: Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes – Safety requirements for portable sealed secondary cells and batteries made from them for portable applications
• IEC 61960-3: Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes – Secondary sealed cells and portable batteries – Part 3: Prismatic and cylindrical lithium secondary cells and batteries made from them

Lithium-ion cells produced by ASPİLSAN Enerji can be used in radio systems, jammers, robotic and weapon systems, power tools, medical batteries, hybrid vehicles, smart textile batteries, e-bikes and scooters, forklifts, UPS systems, and energy storage systems.

In addition to its current product portfolio, ASPİLSAN Enerji designs and develops project-based products tailored to customer needs.
