In this catalog, Valeo presents a selection of its technologies in the domains of electrification, driving assistance, lighting and the reinvention of life onboard, four domains essential to the transformation of mobility, to make it cleaner, safer and smarter, in the automobile and beyond.
The Double Wet Clutch (DWC) is a type of automatic multi-speed vehicle transmission system, that uses two separate wet clutches. The principle of such a transmission is to be able to switch gears without feeling the change. It is seamless gear shifting. Valeo is also developing Triple Wet Clutch (TWC).
The 3-in-1 eAxle (electric Axle) is the combination of an electric motor, inverter and reducer in shared packaging. It is the heart of the powertrain. The eMotor, the inverter and the reducer are highly integrated together with shared housing design: this is a compact solution for electric vehicle and electrically-driven secondary axle in hybrid vehicles. Compare with standalone solution, 3-in-1 electric axle saves space and cost.
Data centers consume 5% of the worldwide electricity production. 40% of that consumption is dedicated to server cooling.
In the meantime, chip power increases and requires more cooling power. Today, 95% of data centers use air cooling, which uses a huge amount of energy. Only 5% use liquid cooling, mostly using water, but of course the risk is that leaks can destroy electronics and even lead to fire hazards.
The Ultra Wide Band (UWB) Car Phone as a Key is an innovative solution that redefines vehicle access and security.
Ultra Wide Band (UWB) technology, integrated into smartphones, enables encrypted communications between the user and the vehicle. Acting as a handless key fob, the phone seamlessly interacts with the vehicle’s locking and ignition systems, providing secure and convenient access without the need for a physical key.
The Central Display is a pivotal component of our advanced infotainment system designed to enhance the driving experience. The central mounted display serves as a central point for accessing a wide range of entertainment, communication, and vehicle information features. This innovative solution optimizes the development efforts for seamless integration into various vehicle platforms, ensuring consistent performance and user experience across different models.
At the core of upcoming Software-Defined-Vehicles are Valeo’s cutting-edge Zone Controllers. These Zone control units deliver two crucial functions: they facilitate high-speed data transfer and manage power distribution across various sections, or “zones,” of the vehicle.
Our strategic partnership with Leoni, combining leading competencies in ADAS and Power Electronics, underpins the development of our Zone Controllers. Our holistic understanding of vehicle architecture and wiring systems allows us to deliver an optimized Zone Controller system in terms of packing, power dissipation, and load balancing.
As part of the engine cooling system, fan systems include a fan system motor, a blade and a shroud.
Electrification and new ICE require greater fan system power and therefore higher energy consumption that generate higher noise levels.
Blade and shroud design have been improved to optimize acoustics and efficiency whilst light and compact brushless motors provide maximum airflow at minimized noise levels for powertrain/battery cooling, with best-in-class efficiency.
LED grille lights are the central area of the car fascia animated from simple contouring to communicative panel. Possibility to be combined with an illuminated logo. Valeo led grille lights and panels have a high level of animation possible for cars (including for communication functions) thanks to integrated or centralized ECU.
Thinbilite is an ultra-compact automotive lighting module, a thin bi-function module with lens height about 15mm, combining low and high beam in a single device.
Highly compact module to reduce headlamp size while allowing to extend signalling function all around.
Highly protected microphone solution with IP6K9K housing, optimized for high-performance in digital and analog architectures. Pressure washer safe. Can be exposed to extreme environmental conditions.
