Production
From requirements to reliable series — developed and built in-house
At Van West Cooling, development and production are fully integrated. We translate technical requirements into manufacturable cooling systems and deliver stable, documented series for long-term production. This ensures efficiency, reliability, and consistent quality across every unit.
Development
Each project starts with clearly defined requirements — including cooling capacity, operating conditions, dimensions, and integration.
We develop practical, manufacturable cooling solutions tailored to the customer’s application.
Key activities:
- Thermal design and component selection (R290)
- Mechanical and 3D design
- Integration and airflow optimisation
- Design for manufacturability
Each cooling system is designed to integrate seamlessly into the customer’s machine and to operate optimally within its intended environment.
Explore our R290 chillers for OEM equipment and our approach to series production.
Prototyping & Validation
Prototypes are built using production components and tested under real operating conditions — both standalone and integrated into the customer’s system.
Validation includes:
- Performance and capacity testing
- Leak and pressure testing
- Noise and vibration assessment
- System balance verification
Only after successful validation is the design released for serial production.
Serial Production (100–10,000 units/year)
Production takes place entirely in our facility in the Netherlands, using lean and flexible assembly processes.
Key features:
- Automated refrigerant charging and end-of-line testing
- Full unit traceability
- Controlled material flow
- Dedicated production documentation per series
This ensures stable quality and efficient scaling across every series.
