Thanks to a sophisticated transmission system and cutting-edge drive motor technology, these modules are easily-installed at both axles. The modules ensure enhanced energy densities, torque, and NVH parameters.
P2 hybrid module
Other noteworthy showpieces are P2 hybrid modules which give automakers a great opportunity to convert their existing IC-engine-driven models to hybrids without the need to replace the motor or gearbox. It allows OEMs to significantly reduce expenditures and facilitate the process of hybridization. This functional and compact module include a 48-volt or HV electric traction motor, launch device, twin mass flywheel and engine disengaging clutch. Positioned between the engine and transmission, it can be applied with all transmission designs, and ensures high-performance and improved power density.
BW’s electric drive
module (eDM) for electric vehicles
BW’s advanced electric drive module (eDM) includes the e-drive motor solution and well-tried eGearDrive transmission. The eGearDrive unit provides a highly-productive gear train with a space-saving, low-weight design ensuring more than 97 % efficiency. The eDM module is a tried-and-tested solution for battery-driven electric and P4 hybrid cars. BW’s products at the IAA exhibition show the company’s potential readiness to become one of the leading suppliers of automotive parts for the fast-growing market of hybrid and electric cars.
