What We Do
AVID is a leader in the design and manufacture of electrified powertrain and advanced thermal management systems for heavy-duty and high-performance electric (EV) and hybrid vehicles (HEV) and improving conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) efficiency through parasitic loss reduction, efficient thermal management, lubrication, electrified ancillary systems and waste heat recovery.
Our core competency is in the design, validation and manufacture of high integrity electronics and electric motors which are used in applications ranging from electric pumps and fans for high performance electric vehicle powertrain, actuation and propulsion in robotics to primary traction drive motors in electric trucks.
AVID’s ability to support customer programs from prototype development to series production is demonstrated through a growing global customer base of leading vehicle and machinery manufacturers, tier 1 suppliers and heavy-duty fleet operators.
More about AVID
Our Mission
It is a fact that climate change, urban air quality and the rising cost of energy are major issues of our time. The energy consumption and exhaust emissions from vehicles and transport are major contributors to these issues. AVID’s vision is a future where the air is safe to breathe and transport is more sustainable.
Our mission is to help deliver this vision of a cleaner, greener future by enabling smart powertrain electrification with our high efficiency electric motor and power electronics technology. Delivering class leading electrified powertrain and propulsion systems.
Saving the planet one vehicle at a time!
FEATURED PRODUCTS
Liquid Charge Air Cooling
Liquid Cooled Charge Air Cooling, sometimes referred to as Indirect Charge Air Cooling is a key strategy in the reduction of emissions and efficiency improvement in modern low emission diesel engines. This technology see’s the conventional “Air to Air” charge air cooler replaced by a more advanced system involving a low temperature cooling circuit, coolant circulation pump, low temperature radiator and a liquid cooled charge air cooler or LCCAC.
ePump WP29 – Coolant
The WP29 ePump is a high performance electric water pump, with an intelligent CAN enabled controller. The controller allows the pumps speed to be controlled via CANbus and also allows the pump to give full diagnostic information back to the vehicle.
ePump OP40 – Oil
The OP40 is a high performance oil pump specifically designed for demanding gearbox lubrication in high performance electric and hybrid vehicles. The pump uses the same high performance proven 0.75kW brushless DC motor and control electronics as the FiL-11 fan. This enables full speed control of the pump via PWM or CAN.
Custom Solutions
AVID has been developing electrified engine ancillaries, control systems and advanced thermal management systems for many years. We are proud to be working with some of the worlds leading vehicle manufacturers and Tier 1 suppliers to help them develop innovative solutions for the vehicles of the future.
Bespoke Fans
AVID has many years of experience in the design of highly efficient motor controllers and brushless DC motors. The company also has in house 3D mechanical design and CFD capabilities meaning that we are capable of developing custom solutions for cooling fan challenges. Utilising our background knowledge allows us to bring products to the market faster, with less risk and at a lower cost.
eFan Micro Hybrid Systems
AVID’s eFan Micro Hybrid System (MHS) replaces the conventional engine cooling system. The AVID MHS reduces parasitic loads on the engine and allows operating temperature to be optimised and reduces fuel consumption.
