Core Products/Technologies

1. Product Name: The Key Technology Of 2-speed Power Shifting Automatic Transmission For New Energy Vehicles

2. Technical Description:

The key technologies of 2-speed power shifting automatic transmission for new energy vehicles include transmission scheme optimization technology and electromechanical hydraulic system integration design technology, high-speed and high speed ratio automatic transmission optimization design and key parts manufacturing technology, power shift collaborative control and intelligent adaptive control technology of new energy vehicles, vehicle matching and calibration technology of two gear electric drive assembly Six core technologies, such as mass manufacturing process and off-line test technology of power shift two gear transmission, can optimize the first and second gear ratios, reduce motor torque demand, optimize NVH performance, reduce gear noise and motor system noise, realize uninterrupted gear shifting through clutch control, and drive more comfortably. It can take into account the two working conditions of low efficiency area and high efficiency area of the motor, so that the motor can work more in high efficiency area, So as to reduce the loss and improve the endurance mileage.

3. Unique advantages：

This technology can help improve the target vehicle NVH performance, climbing performance, driving comfort, vehicle mileage, reduce vehicle noise, cost, energy saving of 2%-5%, power saving of 0.3-0.75 degrees of energy per hundred kilometers, and other advantages. When the use of this technology product reaches 500,000 units in the market, it can save 150,000-375,000 degrees of energy per year. It can indirectly reduce coal consumption and save a lot of non-renewable energy.
