Mclaren Applied Limited

McLaren Applied supplies high performance alternator products to the automotive, motorsports and aeronautical industries. The process for building our alternators is costly and time consuming as it is a labour-intensive process, limiting our product output and scalability. Our application will support the manufacturing viability for optimising our stator ...

The SCIENZE (Supply Chain Innovation Engineering for Net Zero) Project aims to create a UK based supply chain that is capable of manufacturing the next generation of power electronic components at volumes higher than is currently feasible to do today. This will be achieved through a combination of novel assembly methods and investment in high levels of au...

Accelerated Technologies for Future Battery Electric Vehicles (@FutureBEV) will ensure competitive powertrains in function and costs and enable UK technology transformation to zero emission mobility. Two premium automotive global companies, BMW and McLaren Applied join forces to bring together a development team to include Custom Interconnect Limited (CIL...

Public description Most vehicles run on fossil fuels like petrol or diesel. Their exhaust gases are responsible for most of the carbon dioxide (associated with global warming) and particulate emissions (that can cause athsma) in the UK at present. Making these vehicles electrically driven moves all emissions away from the tailpipe of the vehicle, and if r...

"The ViVID project is a Ford led collaborative industry research project that aims to focus on the development of digital engineering tools to promote model based systems design and verification for the Virtual Product Development process. The research will be conducted with a total of three UK industry based partners and an academic partner, who will dev...

StreetWise aims to develop and demonstrate the technology, safety validation methods, insurance and service models for delivering an autonomous personal mobility solution targeted at replacing the urban commuter car. The project will show that the technology is now sufficiently mature to be safe in urban environments, sufficiently intelligent to co-exist ...

This project will develop and evaluate MEMS based vibration energy harvesting devices for high temperature sensing in aerospace, motorsport and automotive applications. The MEMS devices will be designed to scavenge energy from vibrations experienced in–situ with the aim of replacing power and transmission cables and batteries for powering of distributed m...

The electrification of road transport enables lower carbon emissions. However, conventional motors are not optimised for both weight and cost. This project aims to develop a new variation of switched reluctance machine that has the potential to meet both requirements. The power electronics required will be co-developed to ensure an integrated cost effecti...
