Combitech's many years of experience as a supplier of services in systems development comprises everything from aviation and rail to the automotive industry. The trend as regards complex systems is that ever greater parts are controlled with the help of built-in computer systems. The combination of mechanics and software is what is of value in vehicles. This is precisely what Combitech is working on with the automotive industry and the suppliers to the automotive industry.
Today's built-in systems for engines, drivelines, etc. have made it possible to connect these together with telematics systems, wireless transfer of information to a central point that keeps track of the vehicle's position, current performance and date of next service. This means it is possible to make cost-effective and resource-efficient use of the vehicle. For example, so that lorry-drivers drive fuel-efficiently and services can be minimised and undertaken on a planned basis.
Combitech's commitment comprises both software development and specification, setting requirements and project management.
We have also set up a HomeShore™team for product care with software that is a common software platform - for wheel loaders, dumper trucks, scraper machines and compact machines. That is where we add new functionality, manage changes and take care of release management.
As regards vehicle engineering, Combitech has an enduring collaboration with the defence industry and has extensive experience of systems development in aviation, but also with the navy and in a civilian context in space and rail.
