Electrification
From component supply to electrification project management, efa offers its customers the support that suits them best.
Perhaps the supply of components is complex or you think that the massification of your purchases will save you time and money. Our partners’ product ranges are available from stock or on request: power contactors, bus bars, Power Distribution Units (PDUs), Gigavac or TE contactors, Amphenol or TE connectors, etc.
Perhaps your Design Office is also dealing with numerous projects and a team of traction chain specialists wouldn’t hurt. Our Business Unit Controls guides you through the intricacies of sizing a traction chain, its programming and its validation from prototype to industrialisation.
Your project from A to Z by our electrification design office
The efa Business Unit Controls helps customers achieve vehicle hybridisation or electrification. We know how to execute all or part of your project according to your expectations and your constraints in time or skills.
Beyond design assistance, efa will implement the industrialisation of your solution from prototype to the series production of traction chains customised for your machines.
- ZPre-design: Dimensioning and macro option, Series solutions cost approach
- ZPoC - Demo: Quick technical approach, Supply of standard parts, Installation and adjustments, Tests and feedback
- ZPrototype(s): Design according to standards, Choice of components, Electrical installation, Tests and feedback
- ZMass production: Training, Solution industrialisation, Plug&Play supply
Distribution and manufacturing of traction chain solutions
A lot of machinery manufacturers have experience and very strong skills as mechanical and hydraulic design offices. The expansion of electric traction is ultimately much more recent. This is why the supply and selection of components can sometimes turn into a bit of a headache.
The acceleration of electrical development projects has created strong pressure on teams:
- ZSupply Chain, which must know how to follow the evolution of prices and partners while optimising its purchasing conditions
- ZDesign office, which must find the right products and qualify them, even as the number of projects increases
- ZProduction, which often has to learn new trades related to power electronics, whereas initial skills were mechanical and hydraulic.
