Insights into the electronics of commercial vehicles and mobile machines

With the parallel strand on " Electric/Electronics for Commercial Vehicles" and " Electric/Electronics for Mobile Machines", you will also gain an insight into the solutions and challenges of these industries. From 2023, they will take place on a rolling basis. In 2024, Mobile Machines will provide an insight into its trend topics:

Exciting changes are on the horizon in the field of mobile machinery. The introduction of the first autonomously driving tractors, agricultural robots, and construction machinery in practical use is a remarkable success. However, to be truly autonomous and efficient, entire workflows must be fully automated. The industry is addressing this challenge with the help of intelligent sensor technology and machine learning. At “Electric/Electronics for Mobile Machines”, inspiring ideas and innovations will be presented that illustrate how the machines’ performance increases with the degree of automation.

Night of Electronics

On the evening of the first day of the congress, the participants met on the MS RheinEnergie, the largest excursion ship on European inland waterways, to network and celebrate.

After the opening by Dr Rolf Zöller and Uwe Michael, stand-up comedian Christian Schulte-Loh provided a humorous start to the evening. Over good food and a tasty drink, the participants socialised, forged new partnerships or met old acquaintances as the ship sailed along the Rhine. After docking, DJ Nico Jansen opened the final party and the participants celebrated together until late into the night.

Partners of the ELIV congress

VDI-FVT

The VDI Society for Vehicle and Transport Technologies, VDI-FVT in short, has around 28,000 members that are affiliated to at least one of its 8 technical sections. This makes it the second biggest of the VDI’s dedicated societies. VDI-FVT is the community for engineers working in the vehicle industry, as well as for engineers dealing with transport and traffic outside manufacturing industries.

Traditionally, a majority of members work in automotive. VDI-FVT is the German affiliate of the world federation of automotive engineers’ societies, FISITA, and it is the intellectual sponsor of many big conferences on automotive technology and thus fosters exchange and knowledge transfer both nationally and internationally. It also sponsors Formula Student Germany, awarding VDI membership to all German participants, and promotes other student competitions for transport engineers. VDI-FVT has recently reconstituted technical sections for rail and marine technologies, as well as space- and aircraft. It is putting a strong focus on transport and traffic in general and aims to mediate between technology and society.
