El proveedor alem\u00e1n de transmisiones ZF lanza un programa de inversi\u00f3n de m\u00e1s de tres mil millones de euros para fabricar m\u00e1s productos seguros para el futuro, sobre todo transmisiones h\u00edbridas. S\u00f3lo 800 millones de euros se destinar\u00e1n a la planta de tecnolog\u00eda de transmisiones de ZF en Saarbrucken.<\/p>\n
El plan de inversiones de la empresa se desarrollar\u00e1 a lo largo de los pr\u00f3ximos cuatro a\u00f1os. ZF est\u00e1 prestando especial atenci\u00f3n a su planta de Saarbrucken, ya que hasta ahora se ha centrado en los sistemas de transmisi\u00f3n convencionales y la empresa no oculta que ve que este mercado se reducir\u00e1 en un futuro inmediato. ZF espera que la expansi\u00f3n de la electromovilidad contin\u00fae.

To meet the challenges posed by electrification, 800 million euros will be invested in their Saarbrucken plant to get it ready for the transition from conventional to electric motorisation. The funds are expected to flow into production facilities and systems, infrastructure and their supplier network. “The share of hybrid drives in production will increase tenfold over the next few years – from five to 50 per cent,” says CEO Wolf-Henning Scheider. He describes the increasing market penetration of further developed hybrid drives as an opportunity, and asserts that these solutions are “more than just a bridge technology”. Scheider is convinced that hybrids with longer ranges between 80 and 100 kilometres could complete the majority of all journeys electrically in future and thus help e-mobility to achieve a more rapid breakthrough.<\/p>\n
Of course, ZF not only focuses on the passenger car market but also on the commercial vehicle sector. In October of this year, we reported<\/a> that ZF was facilitating technology to convert diesel buses into electric vehicles with its e-troFit solution.<\/p>\n At the IAA trade show in Frankfurt, Dr Mark Mohr, Head of commercial vehicle technology at ZF, showed electrive.com that they already have hybrid and electric transmission systems for vans, small to large trucks, city buses and utility vehicles. For longer range vehicles they have been focusing more on hybrid transmission systems with 10-20 per cent capacity running on electric systems so that trucks and tour buses can drive in inner-city zones without emissions. When asked about larger, long-distance vehicles in the future, Dr Mohr said, “There are a lot of different concepts, for us overhead lines still seem to be an option, and fuel cell vehicles are a real option too. We see ranges of 400 km (for heavy-duty vehicles) being possible with batteries by 2020-2025.”<\/p>\n
