Automotive Drive and Motor Solutions for the Automotive Industry 1
The World is changing. Emerson s engineering resources can help you develop new innovative solutions to meet the challenges of the future 2
Over the last few years the automotive industry has been buffeted by the global economic downturn and a clear shift towards a lower carbon economy. As a result, the industry has seen significant restructuring with automotive manufacturers now focussing on the development of radical new low carbon vehicle technologies. Emerson s engineering resources can help. Today our solutions are installed in manufacturing plants for most of the major automotive brands and also within many Formula One racing teams. We have a global engineering network with resources and expertise in providing total electromechanical solutions, allowing us to tackle the most demanding engineering challenges. Key areas of expertise include: Precision power conversion technology for engine, gearbox and chassis dynamometers. High performance drive, motor and automation solutions for efficient automotive manufacturing. Energy Saving Technology End of line test equipment. Traction systems for electric and hybrid vehicles. 3

Emerson s Proven Success in the Automotive Industry Mercedes Sprinter Production Facility Germany Equipment Supplied Control Techniques supplied more than 800 AC drives for the automation across the complete factory Benefits Flexible integration with the automation system, connected via an open Fieldbus network and the ability to control all motor types across the factory. We like the flexibility and openness of the Unidrive SP range. It enabled us to use a standard equipment range for all relevant applications and allowed us to use our own process expertise in the form of a standard user program Mr Wagner, Technical Engineer, Mercedes Teamtechnik - Test rigs for automotive gearboxes Germany Equipment Supplied Control Techniques supplied complete systems, drives, asynchronous motors, PM synchronous motors and application software for the simulation of an automotive engine over CTNet and CTsync. The drives are DC linked and the system works in regen mode. Benefits One universal drive for all motors. The PM synchronous motors with their compact size and lower inertia facilitate a simpler, more compact design of the test stands. We like the universal character of Unidrive SP. We can use it for all motor types. This is perfect. The high performance of the PM synchronous motors gives us the opportunity to design more compact test rigs. This saves material and money. The flexibility of the tested software enabled shortest set-up times. Mr. Ulrich Krehl, Automotive Devision, Teamtechnik Think Urban electrical car Norway Equipment Supplied Liquid cooled AC Leroy-Somer motor for the traction of the modern Think city urban car Benefits The most efficient and compact motor solution for an urban electrical car travelling up to 160 kilometers in one charge, with a top speed of 110 Km/h 5
Performance Products for the Automotive Industry Modular AC Inverters for Power System Flexibility Unidrive SP Modular - 45kW to 1.9MW Separate input and output stages for complete DC bus and Active Front End system flexibility Build blocks for flexible high power systems using compact mass produced inverter modules connected in parallel Low harmonics with 12, 18 or 24 pulse operation Low losses up to 98% efficient Unidrive SPM Power Selector Module Flexible control of parallel connected Unidrive SP Modular inverters to: Dynamically resize the inverter capacity by controlling the active and standby status of the inverter modules, enabling the inverter to operate with maximum current resolutions over a wide torque / power range Design fault tolerant systems that can continue to operate with a reduced number of available modules, eliminating the need for redundancy in some critical applications AC & PM Traction Motors TRA-TRS 2 to 140 kw /32 to 240 VAC High performance and high Efficiency Compact: high power/mass ratio Variable speed design High cooling performances: liquid or air 30 years expertise 6
