102651IMPACT - Integrated Magsplit Powertrain with Advanced Control and TestingClosedCollaborative R&DInnovate UKMagnomatics’ innovative and proprietary magnetic CVT (MAGSPLIT) integrates a magnetic planetary gear and a highly efficient control motor/generator to enable the realisation of more efficient and compact Hybrid Electric Vehicle powertrain. A Vehicle Intent MAGSPLIT component has previously demonstrated high efficiency and robustness in a compact package, showing the potential to reduce CO2 emissions from new cars by 1.3Mtonnes p.a. by 2025. For this project, a rig based full powertrain demonstrator will be delivered, with a major automotive OEM providing the vehicle specifications, packaging, prototype test engine and technical steer. Magnomatics will design, build and test the MAGSPLIT based full powertrain, Romax Technology will determine optimum HEV architecture and mechanical system, CMCL will provide engine and test analysis, University of Sheffield will lead the delivery of the powertrain controller. A powertrain capability and benefits assessment will enable the OEM to assess business case and market potential, enabling future UK and EEA volume manufacturing of high value assemblies and components.
