Tailored Machinery Electronics

Custom OEM Controller & Power Electronics Engineering

Since 1991, Axiomatic Technologies has engineered custom electronic control units (ECUs), hydraulic valve drivers, CAN protocol gateways, and power conversion devices for global machine manufacturers. When off-the-shelf control modules do not meet exact physical, electrical, or software specs, our engineering design centers in Canada and Finland deliver targeted solutions on tight build schedules.

Custom Controller Architecture

  • High-density analog & digital I/O mapping
  • SAE J1939, CANopen, CAN FD & Ethernet
  • Precision PWM closed-loop current control
  • Fail-safe functional safety software logic

Ideal for complex off-highway machinery, hydraulic valve manifolds, and engine monitoring networks requiring unique control algorithms.

Custom Power Management

  • Isolated & non-isolated DC-DC converters
  • Wide input range (9V to 100V DC+)
  • Intelligent multi-stage battery charging
  • High-power electric drive & motor control

Engineered for rugged mobile equipment, electric powertrains, and auxiliary power supplies in mining, energy, and transport platforms.

Protocol & Gateway Adapters

  • CANbus to Modbus / Automotive Ethernet
  • Legacy network to modern vehicle integration
  • Multi-channel RS-232 / RS-485 interfaces
  • Custom configurable routing tables

Bridges disparate vehicle networks and telematics hardware seamlessly without redesigning entire machine control architectures.

Engineering Guidance

Key Specifications Required for Engineering Review

To help our application engineers evaluate your machine project effectively, please prepare your primary technical parameters. Providing detailed specs accelerates feasibility studies, cost modeling, and prototype timelines.

  • Operating Voltage & Power Requirements: Nominal DC input voltage (12V, 24V, 48V, 96V DC), peak surge levels, and target power capacity.
  • Input/Output (I/O) Channel Count: Number of proportional PWM outputs, digital inputs, frequency/encoder inputs, or analog sensor interfaces.
  • Network Communication Protocols: Primary bus type (SAE J1939, CANopen, CAN FD, Modbus RTU/TCP, Automotive Ethernet) and baud rate targets.
  • Environmental & Mechanical Targets: Enclosure sealing requirements (IP67, IP69K), connector series preferred (Deutsch, AMPSEAL), and operating thermal range (-40°C to +85°C).
  • Compliance & Functional Safety: Specific CE, E-mark, ISO 13849, or shock/vibration standards required for project sign-off.
