Initial Situation
A certain company from the renewable energy and medical technology sector approached TPS Elektronik with the urgent need to modernize its aging power and battery systems. The company required a custom power supply design that could support both industrial production facilities and medical-grade equipment.
In their industrial division, the client needed a custom industrial power supply design capable of handling high-voltage loads and continuous operation in harsh environments. In parallel, their healthcare division demanded a custom medical power supply design that would comply with international safety standards and support the development of critical devices through medical device software development and software development for medical devices.
At the same time, the client was developing an e-mobility product line that required innovative on board charger design and validation against an on board charger reference design. Additionally, the company lacked a reliable partner for a full range of battery test systems—including battery test system, battery testing system, battery management system testing, battery and charging system tester, and battery pack test system—all critical for verifying performance and ensuring compliance with safety regulations.
To further complicate matters, the company was planning a large-scale battery energy storage system design project. This required expertise in the design of battery energy storage system and scalable energy storage system design to support renewable integration into the grid. The challenge extended beyond hardware: they needed support in communication protocol design and even the design and analysis of security protocol for communication to ensure safe and reliable operation.
The previous supplier was unable to deliver this complex mix of power electronics, software integration, and high-voltage testing. Therefore, the customer turned to TPS Elektronik, well known for high power solutions electronic city and long-term collaboration in demanding projects.
