Every year, the international automotive community meets up at the International CTI SYMPOSIA in Germany and USA to discuss the best strategies and technologies for tomorrow’s car, busses and trucks. To reduce CO2 emissions drivetrain electrification and the use of renewable energies are in the focus. Efficiency, reliability and costs need to be optimized at the same time. CTI SYMPOSIA are premier industry meetings that cover all the key issues in depth.
The CTI SYMPOSIUM EXPO is a professional platform with unique cross-sector networking opportunities. Annually hundreds of delegates get latest updates on products and services, exhibitors show their solutions at their booths as well as during a ride & drive.
Goeff Lewis, Technical Director, Duvelco OEMs love SiC and GaN [1]; higher switching speeds lead to more efficient motors, which in turn mean greater range or lighter, less expensive batteries for the same BEV range. Higher switching speeds, dV/dt, can mean increased displacement current coupled onto the motor shaft [2].

Why Vehicle Motion Control matters for the powertrain Vehicle Motion Control (VMC) is shifting from a chassis-led specialist topic to a decisive development discipline for electrified drivetrains. As electrification and rising computing capability reshape vehicle architectures, motion can no longer be treated as the sum of separate domains. For powertrain engineers, that means traction, stability… Continue reading
Ingo Scholten, CTO, Horse Powertrain In addition to dedicated hybrid transmissions, Horse Powertrain also supplies dedicated combustion engines and complete drive modules. At the 28th CTI Symposium in Berlin last December, we spoke to Ingo Scholten, CTO of Horse Powertrain, about developments in current and future hybrid technology.
