e-axle

This purpose-built production line integrates automated assembly features and will manufacture Allison’s eGen Power series of fully integrated electric axles, as Allison prepares to progressively increase output of pilot builds.

«For the sake of efficiency, it goes without saying that the shortest possible path to create torque at the wheels is the best. We do that by placing the motors exactly between the wheels and make them spin in parallel. Next, when you want to set a 40 metric tons vehicle in motion, you need a lot of...

Hino will integrate Allison’s eGen Power 100D e-axle into their vehicles as the two companies collaborate to build out a truly differentiated product for end users, with start of low volume production intended in early 2023.

Designed with a custom Spicer S130 rear drive axle, the propulsion system for the MT50e application is engineered as a fully integrated e-axle, including a gearbox and motor, providing up to 240 kW of power to support the vehicle's driving range of up to 170 miles. 

The test vehicles are supporting the progress of the electric axles towards production maturity. «The test results are supplying us with important information regarding the use and application profile of SAF TRAKe and SAF TRAKr», explained Olaf Drewes, Director Group Innovation EMEA at SAF-HOLLAND....

«We have new products to introduce in the fall. We are working on our new NextGen motor platform with improved performance and other key developments such as the e-axle design. The motor will be available for testing at the end of this year followed by the e-axle», stated Mart Verschoor.
