Since relays and fuses cannot meet the requirements of modern E/E vehicle architectures, partial or complete electrification of the primary and secondary power distribution must be taken into account.
Devices in the AH171xQ series are designed for brushless DC motor commutation speed measurement, angular or linear encoders, and position sensors in demanding automotive and industrial applications.
The vehicles of the future will be automated and networked to drive autonomously in road traffic and to relieve the driver. This requires new vehicle architectures and high-performance components. The Fraunhofer IPMS is working on various research projects to create the necessary conditions.
Audi has been testing the local server solution Edge Cloud 4 Production (EC4P), a new method of IT-based factory automation, at Böllinger Höfe since July 2022. Starting in July 2023, this paradigm shift in Audi’s shop floor IT will be used for the first time in series production.
EcoQPower uses energy flows in a completely new way to make automotive paint shop operations as energy efficient as possible. Dürr’s innovative system allows plant operators to move away from gas, a fossil fuel, towards climate-neutral production through electrification.
