Automotive & Mobility
Managing the dual challenge of EV scaling and ICE optimization. We provide the operational playbook for a sector in transformation.
Engineering the dual
Mobility Transformation
The automotive industry is undergoing its most significant transformation in a century. OEMs must stand up new battery value chains while simultaneously optimizing legacy ICE assets.
At LOCHS RIGEL, we engineer the transition. We help clients navigate the capital-intensive pivot from legacy internal combustion engine (ICE) assets to electric vehicle (EV) scaling, ensuring operational agility and yield security during the industry's most critical phase of global commerce.
Strategic Domains
Battery Gigafactory Scaling
Process optimization for slurry mixing, electrode coating, and cell assembly using high-frequency data feedback loops to hit target yields faster.
Supply Chain Resilience
Moving beyond spreadsheets—we implement real-time inventory visibility and risk-sensing engines to mitigate component volatility.
Flexible Shop-Floor Logic
Designing reconfigurable production lines and AGV/AMR-led logistics capable of handling high-mix, low-volume EV model variations.
Legacy Asset Optimization
Extending the life and profitability of ICE assets through predictive maintenance and precision OEE tuning.
Target Velocity
Minimize dead-capex
Reducing the time to target yield on new production lines through physics-based digital twins and AI-driven setpoint optimization.
Operational agility
Building the flexibility required to pivot production across ICE and EV models without loss of throughput or precision.
