1. GKN 

GKN advanced e-drive laboratory: Engineers at GKN are using Dynacar for the definition of optimum gear ratio on a novel electric powertrain gearbox. Now that prototypes are available, the e-drive+gearbox and driveshafts are being tested on a "state of the art" laboratory using Dynacar model embedded on a PXI controller. The lay out of the test benches allows simultaneous "Hardware in the loop" and "human in the loop" of the new electric powertrain. Dynacar model combined with our advanced test bench allow GKN Driveline to reduce development time, as we are now capable to test the complete electric powertrain in multiple cases that deal not only with longitudinal but also lateral dynamics, as pointed out by Jose Manuel Cubert, Head of Engineering at GKN Driveline Zumaia plant..

2. INAUXA/EDAI  

Inauxa S.A., currently Tier 1 supplier of axle components, has used Dynacar for the definition of a patented steering rear axle for a small Van. The tool has been very useful to define the existing forces when maneuvering as well as the actuator controller strategy which is dependant of vehicle parameters such as vehicle speed and steering angle, says Rafael Teijeiro, Research and Development Manager at Inauxa. Active roll bars and other mechatronic components are being developed by Inauxa using the Dynacar tool.
