Speed is a key factor for success. It is as important as cost, value, uniqueness, vision, user acceptance. This holds true for processes, goods and services. And for tools, including the one presented here. A tool that is intuitive to use requires little time to learn. A versatile tool is quickly accepted by a team dealing with many projects or concepts simultaneously. A tool that adapts to the users’ workflow and integrates seamlessly maintains these processes speed. Introducing the KISSsoft System Module.
Bearing damage due to electric current in variable frequency drives (VFD) is well understood as a general concept. What is not yet fully developed are the models that better predict when a system is at risk and where we should be looking for early signs of damage.
NTN, the parent company of BCA Bearings, proudly announces that BCA Bearings has been awarded a 2025 ACPN Content Excellence Gold Award in the Large Category (250,000+ applications) for ACES and PIES Data. The award was presented at the Auto Care Connect held May 12–15, 2025, in Phoenix, Arizona.

As a highly specialized resin manufacturer, the company has emerged over the past two years – under the umbrella of Nagel Technologies GmbH – as a sought-after technology partner for OEMs and innovation leaders. With powerful, thermally conductive casting resins, Lambda Resins GmbH (Germany) addresses some of the central challenges of electromobility, especially where conventional solutions reach their limits.
BorgWarner continues to expand its new energy vehicle motor business and has recently secured four new projects with three major Chinese domestic brands. The projects include the supply of 400V high-voltage hairpin (HVH) motors to a prominent Chinese new energy vehicle supplier for their 200kW hybrid rear-drive platform, with production planned to commence in August 2025. BorgWarner will also provide motors for a top Chinese domestic OEM’s 150kW pure electric platform, scheduled for mass production in March 2026. Additionally, the company will supply electric motors for the next-generation vehicles of another major Chinese domestic OEM, covering both range-extended and plug-in hybrid models, with production anticipated to begin in August and October 2025.
RTEC Engineering Ltd. is on a mission to redefine accuracy standards for dynamometers amid the growing global interest in enhancing engine efficiency and performance.
While it may not be the most visually arresting spectator sport, F1 racing is certainly a behind-the-scenes testament to aerodynamics, engine technology and data analytics. Designers are always searching for ways to optimize these vehicles on race day. Many of the engineering decisions made on or near the racetrack have trickled down to other markets including automotive, aerospace and e-mobility. Lego has decided the time has come to honor these innovations with F1 racing sets for adults and kids.
Numerous bus operators worldwide are already enjoying the benefits of Voith’s DIWA NXT automatic transmission system – especially for intercity and regional bus services.
