Chroma and Altair collaborate to develop Digital Twins for EV Propulsion Testing Systems
Chroma ATE signed a MoU with Altair Engineering, a global technology company providing solutions in product development, high-performance computing and data intelligence.
Chroma and Altair will work together to jointly develop tools for electric vehicle (EV) development and testing, as well as digital twins of e-Propulsion Testing Systems.
This effort will involve the integration of model-based development simulation methodologies with Power Hardware-in-the-Loop (PHIL) testing to achieve the performance requirements of e-propulsion systems. The integration of the computational and the physical models will enable a seamless vehicle engineering and validation process.
Chroma is advancing digital twin system technology in the field of electric vehicle testing, providing a more realistic test solution for high-voltage power components and motor control. The solution will incorporate Altair's simulation and machine learning technologies with Chroma's power supply, loading management and battery charge/discharge system, high-voltage/high-power simulation output to achieve dynamic real-time simulation. The integrated solution will be able to simulate system abnormal state, failure mode analysis, etc., to reduce product development risks and improve test efficiency.
With the rapid growth of electric vehicles, vehicle manufacturers and component manufacturers will face increasingly more demanding testing standards and requirements. This memorandum allows Chroma and Altair to leverage each other's expertise and technologies to offer robust digital twin solutions addressing the complex design and certification challenges of the electric vehicle industry.
“This synergy with Altair will bring Chroma's electric vehicle power level testing solution into a new automotive application frontier, and accelerate the equipment deployment and business expansion opportunities in the rapid growing EV market,” said Leo Huang, Chroma's Chairman & CEO.
