How Schaeffler is increasing the range of electric vehicles.

Schaeffler and VDL plan to jointly develop and produce a new generation of self-driving electric shuttles for public transport.

Schaeffler’s Automotive CEO Matthias Zink assesses ten propositions about mobility of tomorrow.

Schaeffler is demonstrating its development capabilities in the field of hydrogen-powered mobility with a new generation of metallic bipolar plates for polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells.

The transition to electric mobility on our roads poses major challenges for garages. Aftermarket CEO Jens Schüler describes how Schaeffler encourages service operations to join the automotive and industrial supplier on the transformation journey.

43,252,003,274,489,856,000 – that’s the number of possible turns to solve the famous Rubik’s Cube. The options of the global logistics network are similarly diverse. At Schaeffler, the Transportation Data Cube (TDC) takes care of that.

How can the transportation sector become more sustainable? And how can Schaeffler accelerate that transformation? Those questions are among the ones that the specialists in Schaeffler’s Advanced Innovation department address and explore.

Rail is among the most efficient means of transportation but a lot of its potential remains untapped. An interview about challenges and solutions with Dr. Michael Holzapfel, Senior Vice President Business Unit Rail at Schaeffler.

Schaeffler exhibits at the IAA Transportation for the first time: Automotive CEO Matthias Zink provides insights into why Schaeffler's technologies and products are perfect for transforming the transportation industry towards greater sustainability.

For Matthias Zink, the Schaeffler Kolloquium 2022 will be the most spectacular one to be held to date. An interview with the CEO Automotive Technologies about the highlights of the event.

Neutrinos are referred to as ghost particles. To track them down, ultrasensitive detectors are set up in extreme locations – for instance in the Antarctic. Read below how Schaeffler helps research scientists with their neutrino experiments.

It is a key component in a large number of vehicle applications ranging from the drive to the steering system and has a diameter and height of only five centimeters: A brushless direct current motor.

Electric powertrain technologies are increasingly catching on. A development that clearly affects globally active automotive and industrial supplier Schaeffler as current statistics demonstrate.

The light has turned green for the hybrid era of the FIA World Rally Championship (WRC). Global automotive supplier Schaeffler and its subsidiary Compact Dynamics are playing a pioneering role.

Schaeffler was awarded the innovation in hardware award by the International Conference on Social Robotics (ICSR) for its GraviKart robotic push trolly solution for the manufacturing industry.

It is one of the greatest “Made in Germany” success stories: The global automotive and industrial supplier Schaeffler is celebrating its 75th anniversary today.

Starting in 2025, Schaeffler will be buying 100,000 metric tons (110,000 short tons) of “green” steel per year from a Swedish startup. The steel will be produced with hydrogen.

Whether hybrid or fully electric, whether 48 or 800 volts, Schaeffler’s modular powertrain portfolio has the right solution for any e-car.

Schaeffler is steadily expanding its involvement in autonomous mobility based on intelligent chassis systems.

As an innovation leader, Schaeffler is already researching the technologies of tomorrow together with universities, institutes, and research facilities.

Neither chain, nor shaft, nor belt - Schaeffler presented the "Bike-by-Wire" system Free Drive as an innovative solution for bicycles at Eurobike 2021 in Friedrichshafen.

Schaeffler’s intelligent mechatronic rear axle steering system ensures greater agility, driving comfort and safety with maximum energy efficiency.

Hybrid or all-electric systems are complementing or replacing conventional powertrains. Schaeffler has developed a modular e-axle kit enabling an extensive, universal product portfolio.

Be it in cars, trains or airplanes, in systems ranging from hybrid to fully electric, mobility of the future requires electric motors. But how does an electric motor actually work?

The transformation toward e-mobility doesn’t stop at the gates of the spare parts market. Schaeffler Automotive Aftermarket is gearing up for the demands of tomorrow.

Electric powertrains don’t have to involve range issues: The fuel cell is a case in point. How does this technology work and why has it recently become a hot topic?

No bearing would rotate without perfectly shaped steel spheres. A manufacturing technology feat whose beginnings date back more than 130 years – and that today ensures proper rotation.

Two pioneering examples from the Schaeffler world illustrate how complex and time-consuming development work can be: the dry dual clutch and the fully variable UniAir valve control system.
