Technical development projects in thermal management rarely follow a linear path. Especially when it comes to new products, new technologies, or complex systems, issues arise that cannot be resolved solely through standard methods or existing experience. In these situations, I am typically brought in—as a technical sparring partner focused on analysis, structure, and a solid foundation for decision-making.
Dr. Eberhard Pantow
Understand technology trends and customer requirements
Develop custom-fit solutions that satisfy the customer and production
Use resources efficiently, ensure product maturity, solve problems in a targeted and sustainable manner.
When do I come into the picture?
Situations in which companies turn to me because internal knowledge alone is no longer enough
New products, new technologies,
new uncertainties
Comparable products are known, but genuine experience with validation is missing. I identify risks early on.
My areas of expertise are based on many years of experience in vehicle thermal management, from pre-development through development for mass production, to project management. Take advantage of this expertise.
