Modine Design Process

Design to Fit Any Chassis

Modine’s team of thermal engineers is here to help you design your next vehicle. We can help you select one of our standard products to meet your needs, or custom design a solution for your unique requirements.

TECHNICAL ASSESSMENT

A Modine Application Engineer (AE) reviews your requirements with standard EVantage™ thermal system configurations and shares assessment with your Customer Design Team.

CUSTOM DESIGN

If needed, the Modine AE team creates a custom design and runs a full set of simulations using Modine proprietary simulation software, built from real-world data, to ensure the design will meet your heat load requirements. An initial CAD model will be shared with the Customer Design Team to finalize space constraint requirements.

FINAL DESIGN & FIT CHECK

A final CAD drawing is reviewed with the Customer Design Team after all design for manufacturability and reliability (DFM/DFR) adjustments are made. If needed, a finite element analysis (FEA) simulation is run by the Modine AE team to confirm the design will meet the harsh environment requirements of the vehicle and all customer-specified validation tests.

Prototype

PROTOTYPE SAMPLES & CONTROL FIRMWARE

Modine’s inhouse Sample Shop can rapidly build prototypes of our EVantage thermal systems. In parallel, the Modine Controls Team will build the firmware to seamlessly interface the BTMS or ECP with the Customer’s vehicle firmware using a library of Modine proprietary and proven controls algorithms for rapid, low risk development.

Validation

VALIDATION TESTING

Modine’s Tech Center located in Racine, Wisconsin will run the necessary design validation and production validation testing to confirm the EVantage thermal system meets your performance, durability and reliability requirements, enabling a fast release to production.
