Modular charging station concept from VTS eCharge

Why are our DC charging stations modular in design?

Why are our DC charging stations modular in design?

The modular design of the QuantumCharger offers numerous advantages and can be compared with the modular concepts of the automotive industry. The automotive industry can realise different vehicle concepts with one platform (e.g. combustion engine, hybrid, electric and saloon, coupe, estate car, SUV can be combined as required in a modular system). And with different brands in one group. At VTS eCharge, we use the modular design for e.g. many power levels in one housing from 120 to 300 kW in 30 kW steps, which are super easy to realise.

It should be noted that it takes much more than just connecting a few power modules together to scale up. External parties sometimes have

have the wrong idea. It's not that easy after all.

Our modularity - with the 19" design as the central element - ensures the rapid implementation of a cost-effective Quantum BatteryCharger, for example, or even more power through the simplest of adaptations.

We are also of the opinion that the high-performance DC charger market will only go in one direction. And that is in the direction of more power. In the medium term, this more power will be significantly more compact. And for commercial vehicles, this increase in performance will be significantly higher.

Here are some key points of our modular concept:

1. rapid development of new products: The modular concept allows us to react quickly to market requirements. As many of the basic modules and components are already developed and tested, the focus can be placed on adapting and integrating new technologies instead of starting from scratch. A modular design makes it possible to update individual components without having to redesign the entire system. This means that new functions or improvements can be integrated into existing charging stations more quickly.

2. simple and efficient production: modular systems simplify the production process for the QuantumCharger. Instead of creating complex, specific designs for each charging station, we can use standardised modules in various combinations, which reduces complexity in production and enables more efficient manufacturing. But the QuantumCharger's standardised modules not only simplify production, but also logistics and warehousing. This leads to a reduction in overall costs and faster delivery of products to customers.

3. scalability of the product lines: The modular structure allows the product range to be quickly scaled and diversified. This allows different models of charging stations to be developed efficiently for different areas of application, from standard charging stations to high-performance charging stations

4. rapid production and market launch: the use of prefabricated modules in the QuantumCharger can significantly shorten production times and lead to a faster market launch of new models.

5. the deliberate avoidance of circuit board construction also enables us to scale up faster: By dispensing with a complex and therefore time-consuming circuit board, we can further accelerate production and scaling with the QuantumCharger, which offers the ability to develop more powerful products quickly.

6. deliberately dispensing with a PCB design also enables us to scale up more quickly: by dispensing with a complex and therefore time-consuming PCB in development, we can further accelerate production and scaling with the QuantumCharger, which gives us the ability to develop more powerful products quickly.

7. fast and flexible response to market and customer requirements: The modular concept of the QuantumCharger enables rapid adaptation to new trends and customer requirements. We are super-flexible when it comes to generating customised solutions. Be it in hardware or software. Different hardware and software modules can be easily combined to offer a wide range of performance levels and connection types.

To summarise, the modular design of the QuantumCharger enables fast and flexible production and market launch. This dynamic is crucial in order to remain competitive in the fast-moving world of electromobility and to efficiently bring innovative solutions such as the QuantumCharger and Quantum BatteryCharger to market.
