Vilnius Tech joins the CliMAFlux project
We are pleased to announce the addition of Vilnius Tech University from Lithuania to the CliMAFlux consortium! After a positive review of the Hop-on proposal submitted in 2024, Vilnius Tech is now an official partner within the CliMAFlux project. Their planned activities aim to demonstrate the advantages of axial flux (AF) motor drives for chassis auxiliary systems towards improving the driving efficiency of electric vehicles (EVs). The goal will be achieved through an integrated EV motion control system that includes the AF electric machines from the original CliMAFlux project and the new AF chassis actuators from the Hop-on actions.

Second consortium meeting
On the 14th and 15th of January another CliMAFlux consortium meeting was held in Kortrijk in the technology park Evolis of our industrial partner Traxial. Here we discussed the progress and preliminary results from the third and fourth quarter of the project. Plans for the medium- and long-term prospects were outlined and agreed upon. Each of the responsible project partners gave a presentation of their work package or relevant tasks to highlight key outcomes and ideas. Axial flux Integrated Drive Unit and active suspension designs were debated within focused breakout groups, in light of the upcoming manufacturing and testing phase.
First consortium meeting
We are pleased to inform you that the first General Assembly of the consortium took place at the end of June in Sint Truiden, Belgium at the industrial partner Tenneco. All project partners participated and provided updates and first results on the CliMAFlux project requirements. Two days of working sessions were held with multimedia presentations and talks by speakers from each beneficiary. Many emerged topics relevant to the project were addressed and discussed, which helped to better understand and strengthen the development vector of the project. The possibility of inviting new participants was also raised - more on this will
