Mechatronic Systems

We develop highly available, complex mechatronic systems. This development can either include all project phases, or just one or two of them, depending on our customers' needs:

• Concept study / concept definition

• Detailed development

• Validation of development samples or prototypes

• Final qualification

• Start of series production

Energy conversion, signal processing, or sensor technology – electronics play a massive role for any of these topics.

We design signal and power electronic circuits, create functional models and/or prototypes, and conduct appropriate performance tests. When doing so, we take into account:

• Functional requirements

• Legal and normative requirements

• Redundancy, availability, and functional safety

• Market availability and possible obsolescence of components

• Financial constraints

Intelligence in electronic systems is implemented by microprocessors – the resulting system being called an embedded systems. Diverse peripheral conditions require a customized solution, both in hardware and in software, which we develop for our clients – tailored to the requirements of the respective system. Thereby we use among others:

• Microcontrollers and FPGA of different platforms

• Programming of device drivers and applications

• Industrial field buses for real-time communication

• Implementation and testing of complex control algorithms (HIL).

System analysis by means of simulation and modelling enables a preliminary analysis and evaluation of the behavior of a complex system. As our customer, you benefit from:

• Identification of difficulties before hardware implementation

• Minimization of the design risk

• Analysis of the system behavior based on the simulation results
