With its control systems, it provides the basis for the further development of driver assistance systems which support the driver in the task of driving the vehicle. This applies to an even greater extent to autonomous vehicles. Electromechanical steering and steer- by-wire systems are one solution available. At the same time, the brake system as a safety component needs to be developed in such a way that it fulfills the requirements of powertrain hybridization and electrification. As a platform for the exchange of experience and con- structive discussions, the 9th International Munich Chassis symposium chassis.tech plus will bring together numerous experts in chassis systems, steering, brakes, and tires/ wheels from all over the world on 12 and 13 June 2018. High-profile keynote speakers will provide a comprehensive overview of new solutions to these challenges. Speakers from industry and research will discuss the very latest developments in four parallel strands: chassis systems, steering, brakes, and tires/wheels. The program will be rounded off by two plenary sessions at the beginning and end of the conference. We look forward to welcoming you at the Hotel Bayerischer Hof in the centre of Munich and hope that you enjoy a stimulating conference. Prof. Dr. Peter E.

  • Bosch Intends to Acquire All Shares in ZF Lenksysteme
    September 15, 2014 RF 00240-d Lo, Rg/Wä Bosch intends to acquire all shares in ZF Lenksysteme Presentation by Dr. Volkmar Denner, Chairman of the Board of Management of Robert Bosch GmbH, at the teleconference on September 15, 2014 Check against delivery. Robert Bosch GmbH Postfach 10 60 50 70049 Stuttgart Corporate Communications, Brand Management, and Sustainability E-Mail: [email protected] Phone: +49 711 811-6283 Fax: +49 711 811–7612 Senior Vice President: Uta-Micaela Dürig Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to welcome you to this press conference, which has been called at very short notice. Following a press release you received from us earlier this morning, we would now like to inform you personally about the planned acquisition of ZF Lenksysteme GmbH (ZFLS) by Bosch. We plan to increase our stake in ZFLS to 100 percent. Up to now, the two parent companies Bosch and ZF have each held a 50 percent stake in this joint venture. An agreement to this effect was signed today, on September 15, 2014. We have agreed not to disclose the purchase price. Since we set up ZF Lenksysteme GmbH with ZF in 1999, the company has gone from strength to strength. Last year, ZFLS generated sales of some 4.1 billion euros, a 3 percent increase over 2012. It also increased its earnings by 4 percent to 167 million euros. As a successful, profitable, and innovative company, ZFLS fits very well into the Bosch Group, from both a strategic and a technological perspective. ZFLS develops, manufactures, and sells electric and hydraulic steering systems for passenger cars and commercial vehicles worldwide.

  • ZF Presseinformation
    PRESSE-INFORMATION PRESS RELEASE Page 1/3, 04.04.2019 ZF Wins Major Business for New 8-Speed Automatic Transmission Order from BMW AG with a two digit billion Euro value for advanced 8-speed automatic transmission Flexible application of technology Significant increase in planned share of hybrid transmissions Production to begin at ZF’s Saarbrücken plant in 2022 Production also planned to be localized in the USA Friedrichshafen. ZF Friedrichshafen AG has received a customer order for its enhanced 8-speed automatic transmission with a double digit billion value. The business is planned to run over a period of several years. The latest version of ZF’s 8-speed transmission – a technology which has been production since 2009 - has been optimized by integrating an electric drive. This also includes a hybrid variant. The new transmission generation will start series production in 2022 at ZF’s plant in Saarbrücken, the lead production facility for ZF’s automatic passenger car transmissions. The company also plans to start production of the technology at further locations including the USA and China in the future. "This business win is the largest single order in the history of ZF," said ZF’s CEO Wolf-Henning Scheider. "When it comes to the electrification of passenger cars, in addition to pure electric drives, it confirms our strategy to focus on plug-in hybrids as an every-day solution and to develop attractive products in these areas.” Optimized for electrification The new 8-speed automatic transmission can be installed in almost all vehicle classes with a front-longitudinal drive configuration.

Its upgraded car-to-X service “Local Hazard Information” (LHI) now uses a car-to-cloud application that can estimate the coefficient of friction on a road surface on the basis of wheel slip. The application can detect the tiniest changes in road surface adhesion, upload data to the cloud for processing, and warn upcoming drivers of road ice or other slippery conditions in near real time. Since 2017, Audi models have been able to warn each other about accidents, broken down vehicles, traffic jams, road ice, or limited visibility, a communication technology known as ‘car to X’. It analyses various data for Local Hazard Information, including activation of Electronic Stabilisation Control (ESC), rain and light sensors, windscreen wipers, headlights, emergency calls, and airbag triggers.

  • Volkswagen Builds Supply Chain Efficiency Through Industry-Wide Data Exchange
    Media information NO. 65/2021 Volkswagen builds supply chain efficiency through industry-wide data exchange Volkswagen will be a founding member of Catena-X Industry network intends to establish data standards for the entire automotive value chain and promote industry-wide data exchange Involvement in Catena-X creates valuable synergies for expanding the Industrial Cloud, which Volkswagen uses to connect its factories, suppliers and industrial partners with each other Wolfsburg, April 26, 2021 – The Volkswagen Group will be a founding member of the Catena-X Automotive Network. The union, which currently consists of 25 partners from the fields of business and science, is pursuing the goal of creating uniform standards for the flow of data and information in the automotive value chain. This should serve as the basis for a digital ecosystem in which automobile manufacturers and suppliers, dealer associations as well as technology suppliers can take part. Volkswagen expects the cross-company, secure and antitrust law compliant data exchange to result in new opportunities for increased efficiency and transparency for production and supply chains. Gerd Walker, Head of Production and Logistics at the Volkswagen Group, says: “Data is a key driver for Volkswagen on the path to becoming a sustainable digital company and can become even more important, if we share certain data across corporate boundaries. To tap into the full potential of a data network, we need uniform standards and common principles. With Catena-X, we are creating this valuable foundation to enhance our productivity through the secure and sovereign sharing of data and improve transparency along our supply chains.” Murat Aksel, member of the Board of Management of Volkswagen AG with responsibility for Purchasing, says: “Digitalization and networking play a key role for the production and supply chains of the future.

A I Cipher Automotive Patent Trends 2019 provides a strategic overview of patented technologies in Foreword the sector. Patent intelligence is critical at a time when there is an accelerating shifrom conventional technologies to connectivity, autonomy, shared services and electrification. It is not only the OEMs and their suppliers who are investing billions in automotive R&D, but an entire network of technology companies and a vast swathe of start-ups that are now able to participate at a time when barriers to entry have been lowered. These dynamics are placing increasing pressure on legal, intellectual property and R&D teams alike. We have now reached the point where there are over two million new patents published a year, and it is harder than ever to understand whether the patents you own are the ones that truly serve your business objectives. Advances in AI have made it possible to access information about who owns patented technology.
