Oil management for BEVs

Oil management for transmissions, electric motors and, in future, batteries plays a central role in the further development of electric vehicles towards greater efficiency and longer ranges.

New generations of e-drives with improved efficiency require advanced oil lubrication and cooling: oil management systems with optional integrated pumps and filters and oil-distributing functional plastics in the transmission area.

Woco transfers the existing knowledge of functional plastic solutions from combustion engines to electrified drive technology, based on many years of experience and access to various available technologies.
