Semiconductor Technologies
GaN MOSFET: Gallium nitride based switching circuits with the highest efficiency and switching frequency.
SiC MOSFET: Silicon carbide circuits with high efficiency and switching frequency.
Si IGBT: Traditional and reliable IGBT topologies for high-power applications with focus on loss minimization and thermal management.
Advanced Topologies
Solid State Transformer: Development of intelligent transformers with integrated power conversion and smart grid functionality.
T-type Inverters: Three-level 3-phase inverter topology for reduced harmonic content and improved efficiency.
Multilevel Converters: Advanced topologies for high-power and medium-voltage applications.
Simulation and Modeling
Comprehensive simulation work for system analysis and optimization:
LTSpice: Detailed circuit simulation and component characterization.
MATLAB/Simulink: System-level modeling and control design for PID and State Space controllers.
PLECS: Specialized power electronics simulation for switching and efficiency analysis.
Maskinel particularly focuses on grid integration issues, THD(i), common-mode noise analysis and EMC optimization. Advanced filter calculations ensure compliance with international standards.
Industrial Automation & Control
Implementation of automation solutions on industrial PC platforms such as Beckhoff systems. Object-oriented programming in C/C++ and Python according to UML and SysML design principles.
The focus here is on coding everything in one program, which through the ADS layer (Automation Device Specification) then executes the system commands. Safety circuits run directly on the PLC and ensure separate execution on another core. This design choice makes it easy to use other PLC suppliers, as the core of the code is based solely on C/C++ and Python.
Integration of industrial protocols for rapid commissioning and easy integration of subsystems. Maskinel ensure interoperability and scalability in complex industrial environments, by developing interfaces that are universal, whether you are making a hydrogen system, solar park or another industrial process.
Renewable Energy Systems
Specialized in applications:
Wind Turbines: Turbine controller systems, electromechanics, power conversion and grid connection requirements.
Carbon Capture: DAC motor and fan systems for efficient operation of DAC plants.
Solar Energy: MPPT controllers, string inverters and PV system optimization.
Fuel Cells: Power conditioning management systems.
Electrolyzers: Power supply and process control for production of hydrogen molecules.
