News: CTI Symposium USA

John Jennings, Director of Innovation and eMobility, Amsted Automotive The future of vehicle propulsion is not simply a trending topic. It’s a global reckoning, as well as a global opportunity for revolutionary advances in powertrain and driveline technologies. Next-generation technology is at the forefront, and leading the way is Amsted Automotive with its Dynamic Controllable…

Dr. Jörg Gindele, Senior Director Business Expansion & Transformation, Magna Powertrain Other than combustion engines, electric motors benefit from up- instead of downsizing. When intelligently combining them in an all-wheel drive, efficiency can be further increased, and especially by implementing a ‘complementary’ e-drive topology.

As electrification progresses, in-vehicle hardware and software architectures will evolve from distributed electronics to a “full car computer and zonal” model. We spoke with Patrick Leteinturier, Fellow Automotive Systems, Infineon Technologies, about these new architectures, new semiconductor materials, and the central role of “motion control”.

Gernot Goppelt, CTI Correspondent To better reflect the road to climate-neutral mobility, our CTI Symposia Novi and Berlin are expanding their range of topics for 2023. In addition to electric drives and components, the presentations and discussions will also cover topics such as sustainable mobility, renewable energies and upstream CO2 reduction. One question is becoming…

DeeDee Smith, Luigi Marino, Brian Baleno Solvay Materials A significant challenge for eMotor 800 Volt designers is to design smaller and more compact eMotors. Successfully doing so allows for the potential to reduce the mass of both the eMotor and battery pack. A new slot liner material, Ajedium™ PEEK films, gives engineers the design freedom…

JJE’s New 300kW SiC EDM with the World’s First Bi-stable Electromagnetic Locker The development of the electric drive module continues to trend towards higher performance, power and efficiency with improved NVH characteristics all while integrating functional features such as differential lockers and disconnects. Jing-Jin Electric (JJE) is bringing this functionality matching the various requirements in…

As the world moves towards an electrified future, the demand for permanent magnets is amplifying the already intense pressures on global supply chains. But in the sandplains of Western Australia, a small regional community called Eneabba is at the centre of what is set to become a globally significant and strategic hub for the downstream…

glulock® - A unique in-tool bonding technology for e-laminations in motor stacks Motor-cores have been build by mechanically interlocking individual motor laminations for decades. With materials in laminations for e-motor cores becoming thinner and thinner and increased efficiencies of electrified propulsion systems this process of mechanically interlocking the „stacks“ has become more and more difficult…

Perfect E-Shaft with Integrated Production Solution For the transmissions of electric vehicles to develop the desired high torque under all driving conditions, a very large gear ratio is needed, which requires high speeds. And to ensure sufficient momentum at all speeds and enable the driver to accelerate without shifting gears, the electric drive has to…
