The BRAKE Report’s Post

It’s extremely important to understand the Euro 7 standards. This is a part of the overall LCA regulations that are coming. There are two components to achieving it:- 1. Zero Brake drag- whether in hydraulic or electro-mechanical calipers. 2. Friction material composition- almost like a magical chemical composition. I think some machine learning will help. Finally life is difficult with heavier EV’s. It does require higher brake force to stop.

Regulation of particles e.g. from brakes and tires, a minimum life span for electric vehicle batteries, more stringent exhaust gas limits for trucks and buses… EURO 7 is on its way! Excellent news for any #automotive engineer out there. What? Stringent regulations! Excellent news? Why?

There's a lot that goes on before, during, and after a consumer gets a vehicle. Take a look at where A&D Technology's solutions fit into the value chain of a vehicle component. Most of A&D's applications are used in the R&D phase, helping engineers efficiently design, test, and evaluate vehicle components; but our solutions are so versatile, they also fit in great with end-of-line testing! When a vehicle is done being used by consumers, often times, the parts are examined and tested to see if they should be thrown out, recycled, or reused; there are many A&D customers who use our test systems for engine or battery remanufacturing!

Catalytic Converter Issues Explain symptoms and solutions a vital component of modern automotive systems, plays a crucial role in reducing harmful emissions. However, like any part of a vehicle, it is susceptible to issues that can impact both performance and environmental impact. In this article, we’ll delve into the symptoms of catalytic converter problems and explore viable solutions.

How can you keep your machines running longer? 🤔 For example, the #AutomotiveIndustry needs to ensure machine availability beyond 2030. At the same time, the transition to #emobility and the phase-out of internal combustion engines in the EU will take place by 2035. 🚗 The good news is: With Long Life Repair and Spare Parts Services, you can ensure equipment availability well beyond the standard time frame. 👍 Learn more about future-proofing your machines! https://sie.ag/6tEmG5 #DigitalEnterpriseServices #Circularity

Many states are passing laws or regulations requiring the phasing out of internal combustion engines with electric vehicles, a shift in fleet composition that provides opportunities and specific challenges for Fleet Management Companies. In our latest report, we discuss the impact this shift towards electric vehicles could have on the #FMC sector overall. Find it here: https://lnkd.in/eRYPjUwr #ESG

SEMA Ad Airing in Connecticut Underscores the Auto Aftermarket's Innovation, Danger of Mandates The auto aftermarket industry has led the way with alternative fuel innovations, including replacing older engine technologies with newer, cleaner versions and converting older internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to electric, hydrogen, and other alternative fuels. Encouraging free market innovation is the best path toward developing new vehicle technologies to reduce emissions meaningfully. "Engineers solve problems," said Gregory Banish, a mechanical engineer featured in the ad. "As long as we're not handcuffed, you'll see a lot of cool innovations… If we take away that option for [the aftermarket], now we're forced into using one system, we might unintentionally legislate ourselves out of what would have been the next great development." Further supporting this, a poll commissioned by SEMA in December 2023 shows that voters across the state overwhelmingly oppose a potential ban that would make new vehicles equipped with ICE illegal in the coming years. Eliminating choice will not help; 56% of respondents believe this is an extreme example of government overreach that removes affordable choices from Connecticut's families and dictates what consumers must buy. https://lnkd.in/d_ZkHi2V
