As part of its concerted efforts to further develop opportunities in Asia, Finnish manufacturer of electric drivetrains for heavy vehicles, Visedo, has signed a production and co-operation agreement with Asian electric motor producer TECO Electric & Machinery Company.


Under the agreement Visedo will benefit from TECO’s significant production capacity and ability to service major tender projects worldwide and particularly in Asia. In turn, TECO will have access to Visedo’s unique expertise in developing synchronous reluctance assisted permanent magnet (SRPM) power systems, a technology superior to currently produced powertrains for heavy electric vehicles.

The agreement will also assist Visedo to further develop commercial opportunities across Asia’s emerging markets.

Visedo’s technology powers fully electric buses in Finland and Sweden; it also help deliver Asia’s first hybrid electric ferry, Finland’s first all-electric ferry and is currently developing the power system for a large electric E-ferry in Denmark.

    Two decades after the death of the inductive loops was predicted, Matt Zinn, technical services manager at Eberle Design says the technology still offers advantages. More than 20 years ago the emergence of video detection systems led many to foretell the end of inductive loops. In the intervening years advocates of radar, infrared and wireless detection technologies have also claimed that loops were on their way out. But in fact, by all calculations, the use of loops has actually increased and although
