Your Engineering Partner for Tomorrow's Challenges
The core of Vaionic is the Team, 85% of which are specialists with a technical background. Our hands-on mentality and solution-oriented approaches ensure a technology- and customer-focused approach. With 6 years of experience in electric motors and power electronics development, Vaionic boasts a diverse skill set, enabling us to exceed industry standards. The streamlined structure and agile project management drive the development of novel motor technology.
The development process at Vaionic covers following phases: Simulation, Design, Prototyping and Testing.
A closer look at the cycle reveals that the process steps of neighboring phases work closely together, constantly exchange information, and are sometimes carried out simultaneously within the Vaionic team. This is the key aspect that enables us to lead complicated developments from start to finish.
