Forschungsvereinigung Antriebstechnik e.V. - Research Association for drive technology
The Forschungsvereinigung Antriebstechnik e.V. (FVA – Research Association for drive technology) is a non-profit association for the purpose of joint research and training in the field of drive technology.
The FVA always focuses on areas where something is driven, controlled and moved. Research projects concentrate on mechanical and electrical or mechatronic drive technology in stationary industrial plants, in motor vehicles and mobile machines, through to aircraft. All links in the value added chain are put to the test, from materials, production technologies and quality assurance, components and systems and their calculation, lubricants, through to environmental compatibility, quality, costs and innovation management. Currently approx. 180 ongoing projects are co-ordinated each year by 25 active working groups.
