The September 2024 issue of Automotive Testing Technology International is a not-to-be-missed issue for all VI-grade customers, supporters and for all those innovators who are looking for the best simulators available on the market, with great customers' stories. And simply for all those engineers who want to do more #virtualtest to get closer to #zeroprototypes. #fromVtoOO #empowertheinnovators.

Before #IAATransportation, the leading trade show for commercial vehicle and transportation, kicks off on 17th of September, Roger Dr. Busch, Corporate Executive Vice President Sales and Application Engineering at MAHLE, indicates what customers and visitors can experience at #MAHLEIAA. “Our path to future mobility is defined: We are convinced that technological diversity is crucial to foster rapid decarbonization of the global transport and commercial vehicle sector. The technical solutions for sustainable drives, that MAHLE can offer, are just as diverse as the requirements and areas of application of today's commercial vehicles. This is exactly what we will demonstrate at #MAHLEIAA“, Busch outlines. “With our broad range of components and systems for battery-electric drives, hydrogen engines, fuel cells, and renewable fuel applications, MAHLE has the right technologies to shape the sustainable transformation of the global transport sector. The visitors to our booth will experience our systematic approach to a fuel cell truck, involving MAHLE fuel cell peripherals, thermal management solutions, and a fully functional heavy-duty e-axle with two integrated SCT e-motors and liquid management modules. Additionally, we will showcase an evaporative cooling system for fuel cell trucks and—as a world premiere—our new bionic fan for electric commercial vehicles with owl-inspired design”, Busch concludes. #IAATransportation takes place from 17th to 22nd September in Hanover, Germany.

The journey to e-mobility also involves a necessary evolution in the mechanical design of vehicles. Which are then the requirements to ensure high standards of performance, reliability and efficiency? And how can the industry benefit from the use of aerospace-derived materials? We tackled these and more topics in our latest article about this new mobility era. Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/dtNPTyki #CIMA #EMobility #ElectricVehicles

CTI SYMPOSIUM - Automotive • Powertrain • Systems, ZF Group, and ACT Expo / ACT News Today was filled with great discussions and insightful remarks on the future of Commercial Vehicle powertrains at the CTI SYMPOSIUM - Automotive • Powertrain • Systems. The industry is marching towards a carbon-free future while focusing to overcome infrastructure limitations and creating TCO optimized solutions that make sense for the end user. BEV’s are the endgame but not a short-term one fits all solution. Depending on regional boundary conditions in regard to infrastructure, legislation and clean energy availability, customers will choose from a diverse array of electric, hydrogen, diesel or alternative fuel powered vehicles to serve the individual need of the application. A diverse landscape of powertrain choices will become the "new normal", such as clean transmissions, integrated eAxles, and hybrid transmissions. This shift highlights the critical importance of product portfolio modularity, efficiency focus and deep software-based system integration. And equally important becomes the flexibility in manufacturing capacity balancing between those technologies. This adaptability is vital for market demand based operations. By focusing on TCO-optimized solutions, we aim to achieve sustainability without compromising cost-effectiveness. These elements together will shape the future of commercial vehicle powertrains. At ZF Group, our strategic investments in an industry-leading modular eDrive portfolio and best-in-class conventional transmission systems, positions us uniquely to meet these future challenges. Thank you to all who listened in and let's continue to have these "electrifying" discussions at @ACT Expo next week in Las Vegas!  #CTISymposium #HeavyDutyTrucks #Powertrains #AutomotiveInnovation #CTI_sym
