Key moments

  • Why Maxell's in-house Python MI tools hit a ceiling in 2019
  • Moving to a no-code platform the whole team could use
  • How data-driven development spread beyond specialists
  • What changed in day-to-day experimentation and collaboration

With its roots in battery technology, Maxell has applied its core technologies, mixing, coating, and solidifying, across a diverse range of product development. In 2019, as part of efforts to accelerate materials development using AI, the company faced limitations with its internally developed MI tools built on Python. This led to the decision to transition to Polymerize Labs, a no-code, integrated MI platform accessible to all. Today, data-driven development is actively taking root across the organization.
