Development of brake systems and how Datwyler is coping with the challenges thanks to its core competencies.

The move to electrification opens up a lot of new opportunities for those serving the mobility industry, but there are inevitable challenges from an application standpoint that this transition presents.

Datwyler’s production plant in Silao, Mexico, has become the latest facility to receive an upgrade in order to provide Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) components to its customers in Mexico and the wider North and South American Region.

Datwyler is enhancing its LSR global footprint by providing the same LSR capabilities local-for-local in its facilities in Wuxi, China, Silao, Mexico and Cleebronn, Germany.

Electrification and the increased use of electronic components present many new challenges. Simulation contributes to solving those challenges.

High performance thermoplastic (TPL) and Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) technology is experiencing exponential growth, particularly in high tech applications in the fields of electrification and new mobility.

Production of Liquid Silicone Rubber components to begin in Wuxi in early 2022.

Daniel Triolo, Lead Key Account Manager at Datwyler, looks at brake-by-wire technology, its composition, and the many benefits it can deliver to the mobility sector and its customers.

An ICCT report outlines the many planned phase-outs of Internal Combustion Engine vehicles across Europe out to the year 2040 and the opinion that car manufacturers should increasingly adapt product strategies away from ICE in favor of electric powered alternatives.

Regardless of the technologies that are ultimately adopted on the road to a carbon neutral mobility sector, true success in this area will relate not only to the vehicle itself, but more so to the method of energy generation.
