Projects under development

Iskra Avtoelektrika is a development supplier for its customers. Long standing experience and professional experts, our own development capacities, laboratories, test rooms, prototype workshop and up-to-date R&D tools enable us a successful implementation of development projects based on the contemporarily planned research and development processes.

Research and development activities enable access to the new technologies and materials that are the basis for development of new products and systems. The result of this is a wide range of the most sophisticated and advanced products and systems. At the same time numerous R&D projects are carried out in the field of the automotive electrical products, mechatronics, drive systems, components and systems for electrical and hybrid vehicles, machines and devices.

MESIA - Mobile electrical Energy Supply with Integration of Alternative energy sources	19.06.2008
Iskra develops an autonomous DC and AC electric power supply with different voltages and frequencies. The system is intended to fill the devices with electric energy at locations and in conditions with no public network. The system MESIA enables usage of different energy sources from electric generator, power grid, battery, to different alternative energy sources, such as wind and water (turbines), sun (solar cells) and hydrogen (fuel cells) simultaneously for achieving autonomous operation of consumers. The MESIA project consists of two parts: · Power electronics unit and · Generator unit. Attached file: Mesia MESIA_E.pdf
Integrated hybrid drives for marine applications – 28 V / 48 V	23.05.2008
An integrated hybrid drive for marine applications consists of an electronic controller, an electromechanical engine unit, battery and internal combustion engine. The electromechanical engine unit is installed between the internal combustion engine and the reduction gear of the marine drive. In operating the integrated hybrid drive for marine applications with a mechanical clutch, we are able to disconnect the internal combustion engine from the electromechanical motor unit.

Drive systems for the electric wheelchairs	04.10.2007
Iskra Avtoelektrika has developed a new drive system for electric wheelchairs, based on the technology of brushless motors and complex control electronics. Drive system can be used as an addition mounted to the classic wheelchairs with minimal reworking. The system enables reaching of speed within the span from 6km/ to 12km/h. The system includes two electronically commutated motors with associated controllers separated for the left and the right wheel and enables modular spreading also to the other types of small electric vehicles, such as small electric scooters that require only one driving motor and also vehicles with four-wheel drive. Control unit with a built-in joystick enables control of all units in the system. The units are interconnected with the CAN bus, whereas the communication is carried out by the CANopen protocol. Operation control, synchronization, error detection, programming, and defining of the system's configuration are performed through the CAN bus. The control unit periodically sends to all controllers the required speed and rotation direction of the driving motor in the real time with the pre-set parameters. The parameters can be changed with reference to the needs and wishes of the driver. In the end, the required speed and rotation direction of driving motors depends only on the movement of the control lever set on the control unit. The system also enables control of electromagnetic brakes, if these are an integral part of driving motors, and can, at the same time, control two DC motors that, for example, change the inclination of the seat and the back of a wheelchair. The system also controls the batteries charge and gives other information about operation or errors. Attached file: Drive systems for the electric wheelchairs Twin_motor_drive_systems.pdf
