Performance Booster in the Electric Drive Axle

Electric vehicles need to run efficiently, quietly, and with minimal vibration. To achieve this, the toothed transmission components in the drive axle must mesh perfectly.

To find the best possible gear geometry in each case, we pursue a holistic, system-oriented design strategy in component development that takes into account and balances the interactions between the gearing, bearings, and the rotor shaft shape as a whole.
