And the installed base of drives will be helping to save the annual equivalent of 60 hours of global energy consumption.
Project goal
Given our expertise in the combined area of software development and control engineering, S2E Systems was hired to strengthen Danfoss Drives Motor Control Software development team. The goal was not only to provide additional workforce to implement new feature in the complex codebase of existing Danfoss products but also to provide external expertise and knowledge for software quality improvement.
What S2E achieved
Over the contract duration (currently at 3 man-years and ongoing) our team has both reworked existing software and implemented multiple new features in C and C++ for embedded real-time software, such as kinetic backup, motor flying start and Advanced Energy Optimization on multiple motor types.
To ensure the quality required for its products, the engineers at S2E follow the certified process used by Danfoss Drives for software development and execute extensive testing and validation on dedicated hardware.
