Initial Situation
A company in the renewable energy and Biomedical engineering sector approached TPS Elektronik with the urgent need to modernize its aging power and battery systems. The company required a flexible power supply concept that could reliably support both industrial production facilities and medical-grade equipment.
In the industrial division, the client needed a robust power supply capable of handling high-voltage loads and continuous operation in harsh environments.
In the healthcare division, a medical-grade power supply was required to comply with international safety standards and to be developed in parallel with software for critical medical devices.
At the same time, the company was developing an e-mobility product line that required an innovative on-board charger, validated against a proven reference design.
For quality assurance, the client lacked a partner with a comprehensive range of battery testing solutions – from BMS testing to complete battery pack validation systems.
In addition, the company was planning a large-scale battery energy storage project that required scalable architecture and secure communication protocols.
The previous supplier was unable to deliver this complex combination of power electronics, software integration, and high-voltage testing. Therefore, the company turned to TPS Elektronik, known for advanced power solutions and long-term collaboration in demanding projects.
