New Delhi: Trac Precision Solutions Limited (“Trac”), part of the PTC Industries Group, has signed a multi-year Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Coolbrook Oy, a transformational technology and engineering company, to collaborate on the machining and manufacture of components for Coolbrook’s RotoDynamic Heater™ (RDH™) technology.
Under this structured framework, Coolbrook has expressed its intention to appoint Trac as its preferred machining partner for aerofoil machining, supporting the manufacture of first-generation RDH™ units and subsequent industrial scale-up. The engagement includes early-stage Design for Manufacture (DfM) collaboration, production readiness initiatives, and support for future design optimisation.
This agreement represents a significant step in Trac’s strategic expansion into high-value industrial electrification and clean technology manufacturing, reinforcing the Group’s commitment to participating in next-generation global industrial transitions.
Technology Context Coolbrook’s RDH™ technology is capable of reaching temperatures of up to 1700°C and is designed to electrify high-temperature industrial processes. By replacing fossil fuel combustion in traditionally hard-to- abate sectors such as steel, cement, petrochemicals and chemicals, the technology offers a pathway to materially reduce CO₂ emissions across energy-intensive industries.
As RDH™ progresses toward broader commercial deployment, scalable and precision manufacturing capability will be a critical enabler of global rollout. Strategic Scope of Collaboration.
The MoU establishes a structured cooperation framework across:
– Manufacture of selected first-generation RotoDynamic Heater™ components
– Integrated Design for Manufacture collaboration to optimise scalability
– Alignment with Coolbrook’s commercial and technology deployment roadmap
– Long-term production partnership over a five-year horizon
By engaging at the design stage, Trac is working closely with Coolbrook’s engineering teams to enhance manufacturability, improve production efficiency, and support industrialisation at scale.
Liam Bevington, Managing Director, Trac Precision Solutions said, “Coolbrook’s decision to establish a long-term framework with Trac reflects confidence in our precision engineering capability and manufacturing discipline. As RDH™ technology advances toward global deployment, our focus will be on delivering scalable, high-integrity machining solutions that support
reliability, repeatability and long-term industrial performance.”
Joonas Rauramo, CEO, Coolbrook said, “Partnering with Trac marks an important milestone as we advance the industrial scale-up of our RotoDynamic Heater technology. As our focus shifts from technology validation to full commercial deployment, building a robust and structured manufacturing partnership is essential to accelerating growth. Trac’s precision engineering expertise and focus on early-stage manufacturability strengthen our pathway to commercial scale. Together, we are building the foundation required to deliver dependable, high- performance solutions at the scale our customers and the market demand.”
Sachin Agarwal, Chairman & Managing Director, PTC Industries Limited, stated: “This collaboration reinforces our Group’s strategy of building enduring partnerships around advanced and future-oriented technologies. Supporting industrial decarbonisation through precision manufacturing expands Trac’s participation in high-impact global value chains and aligns with our long-term vision of developing a diversified, innovation-led manufacturing ecosystem.”
