Engineering objectives we optimize for

When standard designs reach their limits, we develop a custom oil pump solution tailored to your specific requirements, optimizing pressure control, pulsation, NVH, and performance within tight packaging constraints.

NVH & Acoustics

Silent operation through optimized micro-geometry.

Low Pulsation

Stable pressure delivery at high RPMs.

Packaging

Maximum displacement density in small envelopes.

Efficiency

Low power consumption to meet CO2 targets.

Fast prototypes with documented results
We don’t guess; we measure.

Fast prototypes with documented results

Conventional oil pump prototypes are typically available within 3–4 months after design freeze. Every prototype is optimized on our test rig for low power consumption, low pressure pulsation, and low noise behavior—100% tested with full test reports.

3-4 Months

Typical prototype availability after design freeze (conventional oil pumps).

100% Tested

Rig reports included with every delivery.

Series Readiness

We bridge the gap between engineering and mass production.

Know-how Transfer

Training and ongoing alignment with partner engineers to maintain design intent and critical details.

Documentation

Detailed drawings, functional descriptions, and defined tolerance usage for manufacturing transfer.

Scalability

Global partner network enabling local supply from small batches to high-volume series.

FAQs

Quick answers to common questions about oil pump custom development, timelines, validation, and how we support series ramp-up through production partners.

TPV should be involved before the pump envelope, drive interface, suction path, and oil circuit layout are frozen. Early involvement makes it easier to optimize flow, pressure behavior, NVH, packaging, and manufacturability before expensive design constraints are locked.

Useful inputs include flow rate, pressure targets, RPM range, oil type, viscosity range, temperature window, available packaging space, drive concept, mounting interfaces, NVH targets, pulsation limits, prototype timing, and planned SOP or series ramp-up.

Yes. TPV can evaluate an existing pump design, housing, gear set, suction path, leakage gaps, pressure behavior, and NVH performance to identify realistic improvement potential without necessarily redesigning the full system.

After design freeze, functional prototypes are typically available within 3–4 months, depending on complexity, interfaces, testing scope, and required manufacturing preparation.

Typical validation includes flow delivery, pressure stability, leakage, power consumption, pressure pulsation, relief valve behavior, NVH behavior, temperature influence, and durability-relevant operating points. Results are documented in test reports.

TPV focuses on engineering, development, validation, and production preparation. Series production can be supported through established production partners, depending on the required application, volume, region, and manufacturing setup.
