This is another area for which we ve defi ned a sce nario and objectives for the various automation levels It s generally harder to make specifi c pre dictions than in the case of electric mobility but it s clear that automated driving will arrive For the highest level of automated driving for instance we re developing our Rolling Chassis 3 a fl exi ble scalable platform for driverless mobility solu tions for hauling passengers as well as goods Let s take a look underneath the car into the area of the chassis What s ready to go there Our intelligent rear axle steering system iRWS for example In the context of electric mobility that s an increasingly important subject starting as ear ly as in the upper mid size car class Due to the bat teries in the underfl oor wheelbases are getting larger and larger which reduces maneuverability Rear axle steering compensates for that We ve got several projects for the automotive industry ready to go there Steer by wire technology without a steering wheel 4 is another subject We ve been working on that for quite some time and are also using it in motorsport An electronic instead of a mechanical transfer of the steering motion is a pre requisite for autonomous driving I d say that in ten years time we re no longer going to have a steer ing wheel in every automobile Then let s take a general look at the Kolloquium How would you classify this event compared to the previous one and in general terms Compared to our Kolloquium four years ago I d say that this event represents the so far largest technological leap in the direction of future mobil ity Plus overall after half a century of colloqui ums it s the one featuring the largest number of innovations It s really and I don t mind repeat ing myself a festival of innovations we re going to celebrate there Only one of the 18 presenta tions at the Kolloquium will be about the classic internal combustion engine Just in terms of demo vehicles we re going to have twelve of them which sets another record We can all justifi ably be proud of what we ve established in terms of new fi elds of activity and dared to do in terms of innovations in the four years since our last Kollo quium in partly very diffi cult times By the way that also shows our consistent execution of the Roadmap 2025 for our division and I m pleased to show that to our customers at the Kolloquium 3 Schaeffl er s Rolling Chassis is a fl exible scalable platform for new driverless mobility solutions for hauling passengers or goods or for specialty applications such as mobile charging solutions or pop up stores The modular platform exhibits the wide range of technologies from Schaeffl er and off ers a fl exible architecture In terms of steering and propulsion various versions can be implemented depending on customer requirements from a simple drive system via an electric axle and central steering system through to the use of four Schaeffl er Corner Modules each enabling a wheel turn of up to 90 degrees They encompass the wheel hub motor the wheel suspension including air springs enabling the vehicle to be lowered for ingress the actuator for the electromechanical steering system and a brake 4 With innovative steer by wire solutions Schaeffl er is advancing the development of highly automated driving The innovative steering technology for automotive mass production consisting of the new components Hand Wheel Actuator and Road Wheel Actuator respectively enables all new scope for freedom in automotive interior design as well as new functions for enhanced safety comfort and agility Because steer by wire requires no mechanical connection between the steering system and the wheel axle diverse solutions for adjusting the steering feel can be achieved all depending on the customer s wish and interior design of the vehicle Modular platform Innovative chassis systems 012
