Kaltra announces AI-powered design mode for its MCHE selection software

Kaltra is pleased to announce a groundbreaking development in its microchannel coil selection software: the integration of an AI-powered design mode, a feature set to launch by the end of 2025.

This new "AI Mode" will transform how users approach coil design by providing intelligent, real-time guidance throughout the entire configuration process. Rather than relying solely on manual input and trial-and-error design iterations, users will now be assisted by an advanced algorithm trained to optimize coil parameters based on thermal performance, application type, refrigerant characteristics, physical constraints, and cost-efficiency.

A New Era of Smart Coil Design
The upcoming AI Mode marks a major leap forward in usability and productivity. Designed with both experienced engineers and less-specialized users in mind, the system will:

Analyze user input and application data, instantly recommending optimal configurations.
Suggest design improvements based on best practices and Kaltra's extensive coil design database.
Detect inconsistencies or inefficiencies in selections and offer corrective adjustments.
Speed up the design process significantly-especially useful for large-scale OEM programs or urgent replacements.
"AI Mode will be like having a Kaltra expert sitting next to you," said Lukas Engelhardt, Business Development Officer at Kaltra. "It's a tool that not only accelerates engineering workflows but also helps our customers build smarter, more efficient systems from the start."

Revolutionary Yet Familiar
While revolutionary in functionality, the AI Mode will be seamlessly integrated into the existing interface of the MCHE selection software. Users can easily toggle between the classic manual approach and the new AI-assisted workflow, preserving flexibility for expert users who prefer fine-tuned control.

The new version of the MCHE selection software is currently in the final stages of development, with beta testing scheduled for Q4 2025 and full rollout expected by the end of the year.

Stay Tuned
This update reflects Kaltra's ongoing commitment to innovation-not just in heat exchanger manufacturing but also in the digital tools that support engineering excellence.
