The customer
Matglow is a start-up in applied research and experimental development for e-mobility, smart cities, renewable energy and defence.
The challenge
Matglow needed a robust, durable connection between the wheel, the knuckle and the suspension. Standard modules failed under load and posed a safety risk, unacceptable for vehicles destined for real-world deployment.
The Vlukon solution
- European bespoke design: a heavy-duty wheel module tailored to Matglow’s load scenarios
- Prototype-friendly production: small batches and fast iterations without long lead times
- Dedicated technical support from Vlukon engineers throughout development
Result
An immediate increase in confidence in wheel integrity and build quality; prototype performance shows strong promise, with further testing under way. Matglow plans to deepen the partnership towards competitive series pricing once the prototypes are fully validated.
“We would recommend Vlukon due to their excellent engineering team.” (Matglow)
