CapabilitiesPowertrain Control Solutions currently designs, manufactures, and delivers embedded control systems for both prototype and production military vehicles. With 100% of the design work done in-house, our customers appreciate our thorough understanding of the product and quick responsiveness to meets new requirements. PCS can deliver thorough documentation including FMEA and PPAP information to meet the most stringent approval processes. We can also perform EMI and environmental testing to meet requirements such as MIL-STD 461. In addition, PCS can arrange for 24-hr, 7-days a week on-site engineering support. All modules are manufactured in the United States at one of two ISO-9001 facilities.ProductsTransmission ControllersPCS is constantly designing new products and maintaining an inventory of controllers to try to anticipate the future requirements of military and OEM customers. Many of our customers use an off-the-shelf controller for the prototype or proof-of-concept phase and then work with us to produce a controller that is well matched with their production requirements. Besides our TCM-2000 transmission controller, typically used in the automotive aftermarket, we offer 4 transmission controllers that are well suited for military or OEM use. Versatile Hardware, Open CommunicationOur transmission controller is over-designed for the majority of today's transmissions. With it's 9 PWM's outputs, 16 digital inputs, 4 frequency inputs, and 6 analog inputs our controller is often considered more of an engineer's toolkit than a dedicated transmission controller. Customers ranging from research institutions to dyno manufacturers have implemented our controller in unique configurations such as developing prototype transmissions or hybrid electric drivetrains. Another unique aspect of our controller is our open-source approach to the communication structure. The controller receives and transmits data via RS-232 and CAN making a seamless integration into a powertrain a reality. All documentation regarding the details of communicating with a controller can be found in our Developers section.More InformationIf you would like more information regarding a military or OEM project, please contact us at 804-752-6025. |
