Thursday the 23rd of February a delegate of Henkel travelled to Delft to educate a group of team members in the use of adhesives.

 This year, together with AMK, our team has developed our own electro motors. Stefan Lampaert, drivetrain engineer, has redesigned an air-cooled motor housing of AMK into a water-cooled version. New custom coils and water cooling will result in a ten times higher power output then the standard motor. Read more…

Advanced Lightweight Engineering (ALE) is a company specialized in lightweight constructions. It was founded by a former student of the TU Delft with the idea of designing a lightweight, dry wounded, composite LPG tank for passenger cars. Read more…

The main focus of the DUT12 is four wheel drive, with this concept we aim to improve our efficiency. This improvement makes it possible to downsize the accumulator and thereby reduce the weight significantly. The improved efficiency will be reached by reusing the energy which else would be lost by braking. The DUT12 will do this by using the motors as generators and store the energy in the accumulator. This concept needed a different type of cell which led us to Melasta. Read more…
