Re:Build DAPR worked alongside a clean energy innovator to design and deliver a high-temperature thermal battery. The system was built to absorb low-cost electricity, convert it into heat, and release that energy on demand to support continuous industrial use. Over the course of a multi-phase development effort, we helped advance the technology from early benchtop experiments to a modular prototype and ultimately a pilot-scale thermal storage unit.

In the transition to sustainable energy systems, innovation does not stop at new chemistries. It must extend into the manufacturing process itself. For one clean energy client, a novel iron anode held the promise of scalable, low-cost energy storage. But with a complex production method involving 900°C processing and a
In cryogenic systems, bolted joints are more than a mechanical convenience. They are a critical part of both structural integrity and thermal performance. However, what works at room temperature does not always hold up at 4 Kelvin. As components contract due to extreme cooling, bolts can lose preload, joints can
At cryogenic temperatures, even small thermal resistances can have a significant impact on system performance. When the goal is to cool a superconducting component to 4 Kelvin, every layer of material and every mechanical interface in the thermal path must be designed for maximum conductivity. That is why thermal contact
In the world of cryogenic engineering, where systems operate at temperatures as low as 4 Kelvin, there is one term that defines the core of performance, reliability, and complexity: the Coldmass. At Re:Build DAPR, the Coldmass represents the heart of our most advanced cryogenic systems, serving as the central structure
When building superconducting systems, coil winding is often treated as a technical afterthought, a simple fabrication step on the road to a functional magnet. But as we’ve seen at Re:Build DAPR, winding isn’t just about wrapping wire. It’s a delicate, high-stakes process that demands precision engineering, deep material understanding, and
When engineering projects fall short, it’s rarely because the idea was flawed. It’s because the execution lacked structure, alignment, and visibility. At Re:Build DAPR, we believe that delivering successful, complex systems requires more than technical skill, it demands a disciplined process that keeps customers informed, risks under control, and project
Designing systems that operate at cryogenic temperatures, like 4 Kelvin, is unlike any other type of engineering. The rules change. Material behavior shifts. Even well-designed components can fail if they aren’t built to handle the unique mechanical, thermal, and physical conditions that exist near absolute zero. At Re:Build DAPR, we
Electrical engineering is a broad engineering discipline that deals with all aspects of electricity and electromagnetism, as well as the products and systems that use, store, and transport that electricity. Engineers in this field research, design, test, and oversee the production of electronics from large energy systems down to microscopic
Selecting the right engineering consultant is critical to meeting your project’s goals. While engineering encompasses a broad field, engineering consultants focus on a single area of expertise. Before selecting an engineering consultant, consider the specific area your business requires assistance in and ask the appropriate questions to make your choice
Manufacturing facilities and other industrial environments need high-performance machinery to facilitate, optimize, and potentially automate operations. The ability to streamline production, however, is highly dependent upon quality industrial machine design. Selecting the right size, design, and capabilities for your machinery, in addition to choosing a trusted partner in industrial equipment
