BARCELONA, Spain, Nov. 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ --
- The EU award recognizes the power of technological
disruption, awarded by the European Commission initiative for
digitising the EU manufacturing sector, I4MS
- The prize was delivered at the Digitising European
Industry Stakeholder Forum 2019, in Madrid, on the 14th of
November.
- I4MS Disruptors Award aims to illustrate SMEs' ability to
innovate and implement ICT technologies, bring radical innovation
to their sector and reach new markets.
- The Digitising European Industry Stakeholder event offered
the competing SMEs the opportunity to connect with other members of
the ecosystem, visibility in an international level and
participation in joint projects.
Elaphe Propulsion Technologies is the winner of the 2019
Disruptors Award, delivered by the European Commission's Initiative
ICT for Manufacturing SMEs (I4MS). The awarded company is a
developer and producer of high-tech propulsion technology based on
the premise of multiple-motor propulsion.
Elaphe benefited as an SME in faster processing with HPC-based
simulation tools, as well as evaluating more complex coupled
physical models, resulting in products with better NVH
characteristics saving time and resources.
The winning experiment focused on acoustic evaluation of a motor
concept in early phases of design. Reducing and modulating acoustic
noise emissions of electric vehicles improves the soundscape,
especially in the urban areas, so the experiment brings about very
relevant solutions to market needs. This new methodology was
implemented and evaluated on the next-generation prototypes of
Elaphe passenger car in-wheel motors.
I4MS Disruptors Award
I4MS pre-selected the four best cases illustrating companies'
ability to innovate and implement ICT technologies to meet its
business needs, bring radical innovation to their sector and the
capacity of achieving on a national or international scale.
The prize aimed to recognize the most innovative experiment and
best use case in the field of additive manufacturing, CPS, Internet
of Things, Robotics, High-Performance Computing or Laser
Technologies.
The awarded company will benefit with the following prize
package:
- A specially designed offline and online visibility during the
Mobile World Congress (2020).
- A visibility package which includes the promotion of the
experiments, and the winning SMEs or midcap via the I4MS online
community, website, social networks, blog and I4MS newsletter.
Plus the opportunity to be featured as the best digital
transformation case in different newsletters, linked to the I4MS
ecosystem.
- A half-day workshop for technological and
innovation support from MADE and DTI.
