Tokyo, Dec 2, 2011 (JCN) - NTN Corp. will be running a display booth at the upcoming 42nd Tokyo Motor Show 2011 on December 3-11, with the theme "Earth-friendly NTN-pioneering Technologies for Tomorrow".
In addition to displaying system products for next-generation EVs, the NTN booth will feature a range of products that contribute to weight-savings and greater efficiency.
Highlights of the NTN booth include demonstration vehicles equipped with NTN EV systems, AR (Augmented Reality: special 3D videos) technology, and AR radio controlled models set up to experience test drives for electric commuters.
Among the EV technologies to be showcased by NTN are as follows:
- In-Wheel Motor System Concept
The "In-Wheel Motor System Concept" for Next Generation EVs, developed by NTN through a combination of the proprietary in-wheel motor system for electric commuters and a steering system, features a newly developed compact wheel-turning actuator.
A two-seater, four-wheel concept prototype of the electric commuter model "Q'mo" equipped with the system will highlight its main features and will be available for test drives. It will demonstrate the enjoyment and convenience that the in-wheel motor drive system provides to compact EVs, including "Pivot turn" and "Lateral move".
- By-Wire System Concept
A wire-frame model of the By-Wire System Concept and associated videos will be on display, bringing together a collection of electrification technologies that NTN has developed for driving, stopping and turning for next-generation EV.
Individual systems being exhibited in detail include the One motor Type Electric Vehicle Drive System, In-Wheel Motor System, and the Electromechanical Brake System and Steering System for "Steer-by-Wire".
NTN will also showcase its latest hub bearings, drive shafts and linear type electric actuators.
