CONSULTATION SERVICES


This system was developed for long term reliability testing of fuel injection throttle bodies and the throttle position sensors (TPS). A vertically mounted gear head motor drives an off centerr crank pin, which in turn drive a puller disk via a bearing. The puller disk pulls one throttle cable open, while the opposed throttle body is closing, effectively counteracinting the force of the first throttle body. This system requires very little power (only 6 watts), and performs 20,000 cycle per day. A small DAQ Module records the throttle positions for logging and any errors are flagged. Throttle sticking, wear and TPS sensor failures are the most commom detected by this system.

Leveraging off of our wide industrial and academic experiences, we recieve many requests for custom systems, help with designing instrumentation systems, engine design help, tester development and etc. We are actively involved in providing such consulting services with complete confidentially or we may help design a custom system for a client and then go on to produce a commercial version of it.

 

ICAM attended a seminar on "Electronic Fuel Injection" we gave at UMP. We're currently scheduling another on Dynamometry and Engine Testing

Dr. Horizon of Focus recently spent a week working with University Malaysia Pahang (UMP) Automotive Engineering Center (AEC). During the visit we spent a lot of time tuning up their existing dynamometers and solving various problems (eg. Wire chafing, software and test procedures). In the end we got their dyno's working with execellent repeatability. Focus presented a seminar on "Electronic Fuel Injection Systems" including extensive live demonstrations. This was attended by faculty and staff of ICAM (International College of Automotive Technology), who requested further seminars in the near future. Finally we met several industrial partners inculding Horstman (UK) and DRB-Hicom to discuss collaboration on industrial projects. DRB expressed keen interest in working together for HR capacity building as well as problem solving with their various vendors. All in the AEC said it was very successful visit!

We have developed several EFI systems and sub-systems for special purpose vehicles including both 2 Stroke and 4 Stroke port injection and direct injection for gasoline and LPG/CNG. Addtionally we have designed many EFI components, manifolds and veporizers and etc. Finally we have performed EFI system tuning on many differenr vehicle makes for power, efficiency and emissions. In 2010 one of our designs passed the stringent Taiwan 2010 emissions standard for a 125CC motorcycle.
A typical EFI Systems may include many sensors and actuators, all opreation on different control principals and at different rates, some synchronous with the engine (such as injectors, ignition coils, occasionally air bypass valves) and some which are synchronous (eg. fuel pump, o2 heater). Dynamometers may reqiures vehicle model-based controls as well as full PID cotrollers for torque and speed independently. Our wide range of control system expertise lets us take control of chaotic situations fast.

 

Guided largerly by our university related research into engine efficiency, we have collaborated with several clients on engine design modifications for efficiency and alternative fuels, performance enhancement and etc. One of our 160cc engines recorded 340km/liter consumption of gasoline at the KL Sepang F1 Race course in july 2011.

 

We have helped every kind of product from vehicles to small hand-held electronic appliances. Our experience in custom electronics, controls and power systems can be leveraged to help in the design of a wide variety of products.
