Valvetrain design and development is a core skill set for the PTL analysis team, having worked on a variety of systems, covering a large number of engine types and applications. Capabilities include:
- Thorough understanding of functional requirements
- Innovative thinking: > 20 awarded patents (assigned to clients)
- Dynamic analysis – Extensive experience
- GT-Suite, Simulink and Adams – Matlab post-processing
- Modelling of mechanical and hydraulic systems and components
- Broad range:
- Conventional valvetrains (cars, trucks, high speed engines)
- Dual lift & Continuous VVL
- Camless: Hydraulic,elcectric & Pneumatic
- Fast acting & lost motion (dwell cam)
- Conventional coil springs
- Gas and other unconventional springs
- Conventional and innovative materials, coatings and manufacturing processes
- Experience in Rig testing: architecture, instrumentation, test planning, test execution & correlation
