Engineering - 50,000 Variants Later: Recap of Magna-Power's 2025 Innovations
In 2025, Magna-Power’s engineering team delivered 50,000 new product variants, headlined by the launch of the megawatt-class ML Series, high-current TS Series expansions, and significant advancements to the SLx Series and xGen platforms.
As we just closed out the year, I wanted to look back and share some of the major accomplishments from the Magna-Power Electronics Engineering team and highlight several new products that are now leaving the prototyping bench.
We were able to introduce 50,000 new product variants this year. None of this happens without deep multi-disciplinary talent, strong teamwork, and real grit. Let’s take a moment to celebrate these wins together.
2025 Highlights
ML Series Launch
Last year, we commissioned our first ML Series, a water-cooled, megawatt-class AC-DC power supply scalable to the multi-megawatt range. Supporting these systems required major facility upgrades in parallel with product development. We installed a megawatt-scale evaporative cooling tower at the factory and plumbed it to every test station, feeding custom-designed water-cooled load banks.
When you deliver power supplies nobody else can make, you often have to design and build the equipment to test them as well.
TS Series Expansion
Early in 2025, we expanded the TS Series with a new base module: 4U height, 20 kW, and up to 2500 A. Packaged into a 16U system, this platform now delivers up to 10,000 A—a milestone that required some truly impressive packaging and shunt design work from the engineering team.
SLx Platform Maturation
After another year of refinement, our next-generation SLx Series 1U AC-DC power supplies are shipping more smoothly and at higher volumes. This progress reflects continued improvements in manufacturing processes, test efficiency, and production fixtures.
New SLx Models Announced
Right at year-end, two major SLx prototypes came together. The first is a 3000 VDC, 10 kW SLx with full isolation, designed to support wide-bandgap semiconductor testing in space-constrained racks. The second is a fully sealed, water-cooled SLx designed for reliable operation in harsh or abusive environments.
xGen Software Advancements
Our xGen software platform also saw significant progress in 2025. Engineering deployed seven software releases, bundling updates across firmware, MagnaCTRL, documentation, communications, testing, and calibration—closing nearly 200 feature and fix tickets.
MagnaCTRL now supports function-generator modes, DBx Module, and delivers improved communication speed. A new firmware release is scheduled for early January 2026, significantly improving step-load performance and power-processing stage protection.
Thank you to the entire engineering team. Our products are depended on by startups and laboratories around the world, helping push the boundaries of science and engineering. You should take great pride in what we have accomplished together this year!
