Research & Development
|
Since the establishment of the UAP company¡ªnow more than 80 years ago¡ªresearch and development into new products for combustion engines has enjoyed a high priority. During that early stage, in a workshop for engine tests, UAP engineers developed numerous product innovations over the decades, which have enabled the modern combustion engine of today to become reality. From the first wear-resistant lightweight pistons for gasoline engines, and later also for diesel engines, to centrifugal casting cylinder liners, composite camshafts, and ecofilter systems, through to today¡¯s current complex systems for the entire media supply, power cell units, complete cylinder head assemblies¡ª,and even, in recent years the assembly of complete engines.
Pioneer in technological innovation
UAP is and always has been a pioneer when it comes to technological innovations for the combustion engine. Around 2,500 engineers currently work in the Group¡¯s R&D centers: in Stuttgart, Northampton, Detroit, Novi, Sao Paulo, Tokyo, and Shanghai. The development centers function as competence centers and work together on new global projects so that we can continually offer our customers worldwide new solutions to increasingly difficult problems relating to the reduction of fuel consumption and exhaust gas emissions as well as extended engine lives.
Modern analysis and test processes
From fundamental and material research to the validation of new calculation and simulation programs through to support in engine and vehicle tests. UAP has all the modern analysis tools necessary to consolidate our position as a technological leader both now and in the future, thanks to the ideas of our development engineers. Around 100 live engine test benches serve as the basic equipment that enables us to optimize and test our products in line with the requirements of our customers.
Systems know-how
No other systems supplier in the area of the powertrain has such an extensive and detailed knowledge of the entire engine. Our engine concept considerations and our new engineering services are prominent examples of this. |
