Automotive
CuroCon GmbH
Zwingenberg Germany
CuroCon GmbH is an Engineering service provider and automation specialist offering system solutions for measurement / control / regulation tasks, working for the automotive industry - e.g. test bench technology, charging technology for e-vehicles
The charging infrastructure in the employee parking lot was developed
10 charging stations with common control cabinet - including two high-energy charging stations (DC charging)
Installation is used as a demonstration system to test various technologies
Customer Situation
Solution newly developed, no standardization or norms available
communication between charge controller and vehicle very inhomogeneous
varying among vehicle manufacturers; weights and measures conformant energy measurement, load distribution of energy supply, electromagnetic interference of the line.
Objective: Develop functional solution to offer it on the market
SIMATIC ET 200SP with ECC AC & DC charge controllers, energy meter, input/output signals
CPU1512SP
SENTRON circuit breakers and load breakers
SIRIUS contactorsProgramming with TIA Portal - Provision of blocks for the charge controller and detailed documentation have simplified the creation of the solution
"We can optimally employ our expertise thanks to the integration of the Siemens components and integrated engineering. We therefore save about 20% of the engineering overhead from one project to the next."
Michael Wißbach, Managing Director CuroCon GmbH
Scalable solution that can be easily adapted to the number and design of charging points
Future functions can be easily integrated due to the modularity
Independent calculation of offers by CuroCon
TIA Portal: 20% engineering savings for follow-up project
DC controller functionality: 30% reduction of commissioning effort
Charging with 11 kW and 22 kW AC and High Power DC in one system without charge interruptions
Avoidance of load peaks and prioritization during recharging as well as easy payment through OCPP backend connection
20% less engineering effort from project to project +30% shorter commissioning time of the DC controller compared to th
