Amsted Automotive Unveils Innovative Powertrain Solutions

Amsted Automotive Showcases Powertrain Innovations at VDI Dritev
As the landscape of powertrains continues to evolve with the rise of hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), internal combustion engines (ICE), and battery electric vehicles (BEV), Amsted Automotive is strategically positioned to cater to the shifting demands of the market. Recently, they presented a variety of advanced solutions that enhance vehicle efficiency significantly.
Innovative Technologies on Display
During the upcoming VDI Dritev Congress, Amsted Automotive will showcase a diverse portfolio featuring cutting-edge multi-functional clutch technologies and disconnect systems designed specifically for HEV and electric vehicle (EV) platforms. Additionally, Amsted has a rich history of supplying clutch solutions utilized by numerous global automakers for ICE applications.
Booth Interaction and Highlights
Visitors to booth #58 will have the opportunity to engage with the full spectrum of Amsted’s innovations. One standout product is the eAxle disconnect system, which facilitates seamless engagement and disengagement of drive axles in all-wheel-drive (AWD) and four-wheel-drive (4WD) HEV and electric vehicles. This system's bi-stable magnetic latch technology contributes significantly to extending the driving range by up to 8%, all while consuming no power when latched.
Benefits of Amsted's Solutions
Amsted's clutch and disconnect systems offer an array of benefits:
- On-demand actuation that ensures precise torque control.
