Body And Structure
-
Chokven Tech has knowledge of sheet metal forming processes and BIW assembly procedures.
-
Our teams are familiar with design requirements governing occupant safety, BIW crashworthiness, strength/durability, noise & vibration, etc.
-
We have worked with the design of modules such as the upper body, underbody, and roof systems – in each case, utilizing a high level of interface design skills, surface modeling skills, and GD&T techniques.
Interior Trims
-
Over the years there has been a significant surge in the design and development effort by suppliers of automotive interiors.
-
Suppliers are using more and more composites to meet weight reduction and increased NVH targets.
-
There is also an increased emphasis on aesthetics and ergonomics all of which are pushing the design envelope further and further.
Exteriors & Closures
-
The introduction of high strength, durable plastics, and composites have revolutionized automotive exteriors.
-
From bumpers to door panels, lightweight plastics not only reduce fuel consumption but also allow designers the flexibility to create innovative solutions that would otherwise never have been possible.
-
With in-depth knowledge of alternative materials and a clear understanding of current design imperatives such as improved safety, reduced production costs increased adoption of modular assembly practices, and improved dent resistance, better energy management.
-
Chokven Tech’s Engineers are capable of working with Class ‘A’ surfaces and delivering immediate and tangible value to our customers.
Chassis
-
Chokven Tech’s engineers have direct experience in designing chassis components including chassis frames, cross members, glitches, and mounting brackets.
-
Our engineers have hands-on experience and an understanding of the design drivers in this sector such as weight reduction, ride quality improvement and enhanced safety.
-
We support our clients in designing monocoque & ladder chassis including chassis-level aggregates packaging.
Exhaust System
-
Chokven Tech has developed a high level of expertise in this vertical.
-
Our team has an in-depth knowledge of the key challenges in exhaust design including the need for noise reduction, increased compactness of the exhaust system, and reduced emissions.
-
Our areas of design support include exhaust gas recirculation systems, SCR technology or exhaust fume purification, complex muffler design, volume calculations, and exhaust systems packaging.
Coach Designs
-
At Chokven Tech we have built a considerable level of hands-on expertise in this vertical.
-
Our engineers have a thorough understanding of the regulatory aspects as well as design imperatives facing this sector including the need for improved styling, enhanced safety, and higher fuel economy based on weight reduction as well as aerodynamics.
-
Our experience ranges from designing structures for intercity luxury coaches and double-decker coaches that meet “rollover requirements” to entire bus bodies - interiors as well as exteriors.
-
Our engineers are well versed in complex aggregate level packaging as well as general vehicle level packaging and we have delivered designs that meet ECE & AIS Bus Body Codes.
