These closely interrelated themes are leaving to contain a decisive result on vehicle doorsill of the future. At the IAA the EDAG Group, as an all-round growth partner, informative solutions and doorsill for additional reducing the vehicle heaviness and CO-2 emissions for vehicles and manufacture plants.

Besides new lightweight multi-material concepts, the corporation too determination be presenting in Frankfurt its input to the international steel industrys ˜FutureSteelVehicle project. For WorldAutoSteel, EDAG contain urbanized a corpse concept for conservative and option drives, as a expression in lightweight, low emissions design. In the region of manufacture technology, EDAGs know-how in tomorrows power well-organized manufacture can be seen in its in-house developments ˜light gripper and ˜light clamping frame.

For the multifaceted region of electric mobility, EDAG determination be presenting solutions for the ,whole provide chain: preliminary by means of lightweight vehicle construction, the integration of components, the border to the power providers by income of an clever charging system; on to the integration of power food in the vehicle architecture and human-machine border concepts; and finally a presentation of EDpowerdrive, our modular drive system.

Vehicle lightweight construction

Diet by new steel innovations and multi-material systems

Vehicle lightweight building is not now a fad in reply tonew CO-2 levels; rather, it has forever person's name the ˜royal regulation in the automotive industry.

In adding to still rising financial requirements, petroleum topic is ahead in significance since of the hybrid and electric drive teach doorsill pending onto the market. Created for the international steel ,manufacturing consortium WorldAutoSteel, the ˜FutureSteelVehicle impressively recreation so as to steel building aptitude contain huge possible for lightweight vehicle structures so as to decrease vehicle emissions. Steel lightweight building achieved important heaviness decrease to 188 kg for a Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) corpse arrangement and abridged sum existence series emissions by as a great deal as 70 percent, better to an interior combustion engine vehicle, with no considerably rising cost.

Commencing in 2008 as a sequel to the ULSAB steel investigate project, the EDAG Group is accountable for FutureSteelVehicles concept, growth and manufacturing of optimised corpse arrangement doorsill future for series manufacture by,by means of innovative steel truthfully and higher plan methodologies. The ˜FutureSteelVehicle can be viewed at the EDAG place in Frankfurt as a 1:4 replica and is future to instigate a dialogue recognized by the international steel procedure and the OEMs. Cees ten Broek, Director of WorldAutoSteel, underlined in his presentation ˜the state willingness to there the FSVs steel innovations to automobile procedure for incorporation eager on completely new developments.

As an know-how instance for fibre-reinforced plastics EDAG is presentation its growth know-how for fibre-reinforced plastics in exacting its solutions for calculating methods. Thanks to the in-house credited examination get for granted static and lively fabric parameters for new composite resources can be strong-minded and can be obtainable to CAE as FEM fabric cards. Between partners processes prepared for series production, e.g. RTM events by means of small cycles can be integrated eager on the growth or exposed as prototypes. Roding Automobile is presentation completely GRP 1:3 Monocoque on the EDAG stand, it was complete by EDAG. With a hybrid answer by,by means of endless fibre-reinforced thermoplastic (Organosheet) as an exhibit EDAG recreation an R&D contribution for an affordable lightweight building for center and better volume.

EDAG has recognized the thin-walled low force shed steel as one more prospect topic for

energy well-organized lightweight construction. Currently the thin-wall casting is mostly conducted for aluminium or magnesium, but by,by means of steel it rapidly good-looking perspectives for light, production-optimised and on top of all environmentally friendly components.

The presentation of the ˜light gripper and the ˜light clamping border recreation so as to the EDAG Group contain in use the consideration of lightweight building as of vehicle growth and approved it eager on manufacture technology. In manufacture a better heaviness the distance end to end of to senior power costs and finally to a better investment. Heavier tools denote the use of better and so,consequently additional luxurious robots in production. The in-house growth of a ˜light gripper allowable the EDAG Group to considerably decrease the weight.EDAG substituted the aluminium chord profile (EGT system) by means of a corpse of GRP: Weight saving of up to 66%. This GRP corpse is not merely lighter, but too rapidly maximum structural plan possibilities in placing the clamps. With a grid scheme no longer ,essential a simpler building is likely still by means of better additional complicated grippers.The inferior heaviness intended the ˜light gripper to contain the the majority excellent likely inertia features, construct intended the use of smaller, cheaper and additional power well-organized robots.

The glow gripper urbanized in 2011 determination be topic to practical tests awaiting the end of the day and a marketplace open is intended for the start of 2012. The lightweight philosophy was too second-hand by EDAG for the clamping frame, construct is second-hand in framer stations. Again the conservative meeting " in petroleum container steel " was replaced by the heaviness optimised GRP body.

As an instance of its know-how in rising and structure flexible manufacturing skill the EDAG Group is presenting the new age group of the inappropriately and tested framing station.

The ˜GeoTack 2010² was specially urbanized for manufacture lines by means of far above the ground manufactured goods variation. The ˜GeoTack 2010² allowable for the manufacture of a lorry cabin by means of 30 dissimilar versions. The scheme rapidly a manoeuvrable pallet construct moves the bottom border of the clamping skill in X-direction. The real bottom border can be moved in Y-direction, the changing of the clamping segments is aided by robots. The framing concept is too liberally modularly and can be extended as needed. Aside as of the suppleness of the ˜Geotack 2010² it too wants 15% fewer surface supposed usual framing stations and petroleum the distance end to end of to a cost decrease of 20-30%.The scheme was productively second-hand in lorry manufacture and for kind and replica flexible car production.

Tomorrows electric mobility

EDAG ˜Light Car Sharing

Purpose Design for car-sharing vehicles

With its acclaimed EDAG Light Car concept, the EDAG Group has for the previous two existence person's name operational on its dream of the electrically driven car of the future. In the spring EDAG urbanized its far attainment mobility concept at the Geneva Motor Show construct determination smash downward barriers recognized by confidential and additional convey systems, and give the client by means of a new, clever shape of mobility. The growth of the history months has exposed so as to car sharing rapidly in Germany are increasing. Reason sufficient to demonstrate the ˜EDAG Light Car " Sharing at the IAA again. After all the center of the mobility concept is concept feature ,specially on the wants of an electrically powered rental vehicle. The ˜EDAG Light Car " Sharing rapidly soothe at what time receiving in and out since of the tallness of 1.90 m, a abridged self-explanatory operating concept, robust and simple to alter center and exterior lesser and up to six folding seats offering the maximum space.

˜With the ˜EDAG Light Car Sharing, we determination be presenting not merely a new, influential and up-to-date vehicle concept at the Geneva Motor Show, but too a new attitude to mobility. A vehicle concept ,specially intended for effortlessly receiving as of A to B, and moreover one construct can by means of no trouble be booked and joint by means of additional income of convey via mobile Internet solutions. Due to the far above the ground cost of electric cars today, electric mobility might healthy get the shape of vehicle sharing in the instant future, and I sight vehicles for petroleum reason as capital merchandise rather supposed customer goods. We invite our clientele as of the automotive ,manufacturing and possible marketplace partners to link the conversation on petroleum dissimilar shape of mobility, and look for out prospect commerce models, inappropriately Jorg Ohlsen, CEO of the EDAG Group.

EDAG ˜EDpowerdrive " well-organized drive scheme answer for urban delivery services

With EDpowerdrive we are presenting an electric drive scheme so as to can be retrofitted in lightweight delivery vehicles. The modular scheme has person's name urbanized ,specially for use in urban delivery transport, creation it the primary drive scheme to authorize bivalent operation of the vehicle, by,by means of fossil fuels and electric authority " the last independently of the normal powertrain.

The original-state diesel engine in the carrier vehicle " a VW Caddy " on demonstrate guarantees maximum efficiency on motorways and additional main roads. And the newly urbanized exhaust-free, low-noise electric modular authority unit, construct has person's name integrated eager on the region of the former petroleum tank in excess of in residential and urban areas.

This instance recreation EDAG bridging skill and judgment a present use for electric mobility.

EDcharge " Integration of electric vehicles eager on the grid

With the EDcharge concept EDAG recreation a charging system, so as to strength merely provide electric vehicles by means of electricity but too construct the swap of in order recognized by vehicles, power providers and Car Sharing suppliers possible.

The sharing vehicles can be charged on particular car parking places: As healthy as recharging vehicle in order is healthy in excess of the authority supply

system and has shaped the option for the car sharing operators to use the vehicle pool efficiently. Questions like: Is the vehicle completely charged?

How huge a variety is at present available? When is the after that maintenance due? can be by means of no trouble retrieved in excess of a particular portal.

The ,essential growth of authority contemporary components are fraction of the variety of armed forces as of the EDAG Group as healthy as the integration of innovative power storage space eager on the vehicle. EDAGs presence in the VDA particular hall for electric mobility is all concerning the charging of electric vehicles. EDAG sight the scheme concept electric mobility as networking recognized by vehicles and infrastructure by means of the objective of nervousness a standardised border construct can decide the ideal charging occasion concerning the availability of renewable power and mobility performance. New armed forces genuine as automated legitimation and the assortment of ,person tariffs or management per miniature are now a few of the options so as to twist out to be obtainable as a consequence of the power provider and vehicle existence form intelligently linked. On the one hand, for instance, it extra the power provider the possibility to create use of power storage space and in petroleum way decrease load fluctuations in the grid due to electric cars existence form connected.

While on the additional ensuring so as to present is enough resource-saving power to accuse the split vehicles whenever necessary. The comprehensive portrayal of charging scenes is too a fraction of the EDAG presentation at the IAA. Further emphasis is laid winning charging by means of alternating present from side to side a cable, charging by means of straight present and charging with no a cable.
