Area of competence Electrics & Electronics Maximum Focus
ARRK P+Z Engineering For nearly 50 years, we have providing active product development support to customers from the automotive, aerospace and special and commercial vehicle industries and machine building and plant manufacturing. You can count on innovation, dependability and sustainability for smooth development of your product, underpinned by our five areas of competence Design, CAE & Simulation, Test & Validation, Electrics & Electronics and Project- & Quality Management. ARRK Group Back in 2005, we became a leading member of ARRK - an international group of companies with 20 member companies and 3,300 employees world-wide. After being part of the ARRK Group for ten years, P+Z Engineering is set to include the name of its parent company in its logo. Thanks to the cooperation with the ARRK companies, our service portfolio will expand beyond Design Engineering to include the fields of Prototyping, Tooling and Low Volume Production. Within the Design Engineering field ARRK P+Z Engineering holds a fixed and leading position in this globally operating group. Area of competence Electrics & Electronics Complex products require complex control systems. Our area of competence Electrics & Electronics meets that need by providing ideal technical development support for your systems. Because we combine in-depth knowledge with many years of experience in developing and implementing individual electronics projects in a variety of industries, you can count on security-critical system development and real-time system integration. We will develop your system concept according to your requirements and specifications, yet incorporating our own experience. Our promise? Superior reliability, minimal development cycles and the elimination of problems right from the start.

Software development We develop embedded software, low-level software and user interfaces for business areas in the automotive and aerospace industries, special and commercial vehicle construction, machine-building and plant manufacturing, and medical engineering industries. Methodology We use the V-model for development and combine this with Agile methods. In other words, we focus on identifying our clients actual needs and on promptly reviewing implementation by gathering feedback. Continuous integration results in automatic testing, even during the module development phase. Our collaboration platform utilizes the following tools: codebeamer for application lifecycle management Mercurial repositories for distributed version management Hudson CI for continuous integration JUnit and CUnit testing frameworks for automated tests Eclipse as a development environment with project-specific compilers and tools as plug-ins Technologies Languages used: C, C++ Assembler Java and various other languages Graphics and user interfaces are implemented with the following: Qt OpenGL JavaSwing and Java3D Tcl/Tk MS-Windows We use the following databases: SQL Oracle Access Our development platforms: MS Windows Linux Embedded systems Examples Control devices near the motor Evaluation systems Infotainment Special devices Control elements AUTOSAR CAN, MOST, FlexRay GENIVI e-mobility System requirements System architecture Preliminary system design Detailed draft ALM Implementation Acceptance test System test Integration test Module test Tools and methods XML, MySQL Server, Oracle, Access, μc, DSP, FPGA
