Klüber Lubrication India offers advanced speciality lubricants tailored for electric vehicles, addressing unique NVH, wear, and performance challenges.

With electric and hybrid vehicles becoming more mainstream and autonomous vehicles awaiting a grand roll-out, the automotive industry has been under considerable pressure from governments and society to pursue a more sustainable growth model. Klüber Lubrication India understands that this transition also brings with it demanding consumer expectations on ride comfort and safety standards. So, in cooperation with various partners from science and industry, Klüber has developed innovative speciality lubricants to bring new solutions to the market that would make electric mobility highly efficient.

Lubrication challenges in electric vehicles

As the automotive industry moves towards electric vehicles to address the need for cleaner mobility, it faces a new set of lubrication requirements different from traditional ICE vehicles. OEMS developing parts and assemblies for EVS in the two-wheeler/three-wheeler and passenger vehicle segment are extremely particular about curbing unwanted noise, vibration, electric erosion, and other similar challenges. This host of issues cannot be tackled using traditional lubricants.

Klüber Lubrication – Helping put new mobility solutions on the fast track

Klüber speciality lubricants are made with high-quality raw materials and special additives that are dynamically light with low friction properties, making them the most suitable option for the industry. Several components in EVs are made from plastics like POM / PAM / PA6 or Delrin to reduce weight. Klüber Lubrication ensures that its EV lubricants are compatible with the polymers mentioned above. 

Although many standard applications remain the same in ICE and EV vehicles, several moving parts have become redundant in EVs. These include the powertrain, propeller shaft, starter motor, and water pump, among others, thus making noise and vibration control one of the most challenging issues faced by EV OEMs. Similarly, the brake judder and squeal, suspension, and steering ride comfort also require high-performance lubricants to avoid the issues above. Klüber speciality lubricants are specifically designed to overcome such NVH issues, having proven industry experience to meet these stringent requirements. 

Also, with the development of EVs, it is visible that a few unconventional applications like charging gun actuators, throttle positioning sensors, and combi brake systems, among others, where traditional lubricants cannot fulfil OEM requirements. Klüber India is currently working with OEMs and their Tier 1 suppliers to understand these requirements, suggest suitable lubricants from our products, and initiate new developments if needed. 

A few of the application references and their consequent development processes are outlined below: 

• Charging gun actuator (Solenoid actuator): The current OEM requirement is to develop a charging gun with a toggle mechanism that helps to lock it in the vehicle for faster and more efficient charging. Over a sustained usage period, this toggle mechanism undergoes wear, making it loose, which results in slow charging.  Klüber India has developed a suitable lubricant that eliminates wear to overcome this issue. Application of a minuscule amount of this speciality grease prevents the dreaded slow charging issue. 
• Throttle Positioning Sensor: In ICEs, the speed and throttle are controlled by wire through a butterfly valve. In EVs, the speed of a vehicle is controlled by controlling the current / voltage fed to the motor, which in turn is controlled by a suitable variable frequency drive fitted in a 2W handle.  Klüber India has developed an efficient di-electric grease that prevents excess electrical discharge and is entirely compatible with plastics to meet this demanding requirement.

• Combi Brake System: An electric vehicle’s requirement of a braking system is quite different from the conventional design, as an EV requires a suitable brake with minimal judder and squeal. Moreover, it should deliver optimal braking efficiency without any skid or heating of components and provide regenerative braking. To target and overcome this challenge, Klüber India has developed a suitable moly-based grease that provides optimum performance and avoids wear in braking sub-assembly components.
• High-performance lubricant for electric drive train: EV powertrain requires high performance, efficiency, and low power consumption to improve the overall mileage (km/charge). To this end, Klüber Lubrication has developed a fully synthetic high-performance gear oil based on polyalphaolefin (PAO), which offers high shear stability and protection. The excellent shear stability of the synthetic base oil ensures sufficient lubricating film thickness even under high loads. Due to the excellent ageing and oxidation stability of the synthetic base oil, oil change intervals are much longer than with mineral oils, thus reducing maintenance costs. Similarly, Klüber has suitable greases for electrical traction motors that reduce electrical erosion and ionic discharges.

Why choose Klüber for e-Mobility?

Klüber Lubrication offers an extensive portfolio of efficient solutions tailored to meet the most challenging requirements. The existing lubricants are constantly evolving, particularly in terms of temperature, long-term stability, higher loads, and increasingly stringent efficiency requirements. When creating custom solutions, Klüber Lubrication draws on decades of proven and practical experience in the automotive industry.

All from a single source

CLOOS Arc Seam Tracking without a laser ensures precise torch position monitoring of the programmed path during welding. This enables automated adjustment deviations for consistent, high-quality welding. Loss of time is minimised because measuring and welding take place simultaneously with the arc sensor. Workpiece distortion, such as thermal expansion, is directly compensated for. CLOOS arc sensor thus combines productivity with optimised quality.

Tandem weld – Efficient welding times two

Tandem welding can be universally applied to both thin and thick plate welding. In the Tandem Weld process, two arcs burn in a common molten pool. The process is based on two electrically separated processes to match each other perfectly. This possibility opens up a multitude of combinations. The front wire ensures a safe penetration, and the back wire quickly fills big joints with filler material. The high deposition rate can result in weld speed and volume filling.

Tandem weld is suitable for thin and thick plates, allowing manufacturers to reduce welding times due to its high deposition rate. Manufacturers can reduce the component distortion and avoid extensive reworks due to the low heat input. Compensate material tolerances due to the gap-bridging ability. Tandem welding can be used for materials and thicknesses.

If manufacturers wish to maximise the efficiency of weld production? Then rely on Tandem Weld by CLOOS!

The modules operate reliably at temperatures ranging from −25 to +70°C (- 13°F to +158°F) and are immune to electromagnetic interference due to internal shielding. Slim housing variants and lateral mounting options provide more space.

Innovative load management ensures that the system’s power is fully utilised via supply and output current load management. Current and voltage can be recorded and evaluated per channel. Overload limits can be set for individual channels. As a result, errors can be detected faster and more differentiated in the event of faults – errors are also more easily predicted, which is essential for future trends such as predictive maintenance.

In combination with IO-Link, the IO System Field fully demonstrates its strengths as a flexible “IO distributor” for both data collection and distribution. The prominent communication standard enables seamless data flow from the control to the sensor and actuator level. This considerably simplifies configuration and cabling. 

Furthermore, completely new possibilities arise for diagnostics, parameterisation and device identification.

Whether on a packaging machine or a robot arm, the modules of the I/O System Field mount exactly where you need them – at the heart of the action, close to sensors and actuators.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation, 1.8 billion people face total water scarcity in 2025, making it crucial to rethink how we use this precious resource. A change in mindset is necessary, as water management approaches focused on supply are no longer viable. Raveendra Bhat, Area Sales Director at Water Utility INDO Region, Grundfos, discusses the urgent need to address water scarcity in India.

Envision a world where every ounce of water is precious, women walk miles to fetch water, farmers watch their crops shrivel due to a lack of irrigation, and cities face shutdowns because their water supplies have run dry. It is not a dystopian future; it’s the reality for billions today.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation, 1.8 billion people face total water scarcity in 2025, making it imperative to rethink how we use this precious resource. As people become more aware of the ecological limits of watersheds, the history of water is seemingly challenged. It requires a change in mindset, as water management approaches focused on supply are no longer viable.

Technology continues to be an important force in transforming the water sector, but the cultural shift alongside it holds the key to achieving meaningful change. For example, the Grundfos facility in Chennai, which was built as the first commercial green building, was later accredited as a LEED Platinum–certified factory. It stores about 53% of its rainwater, recycles its wastewater for landscaping, and has a solar array that gives it a minimal carbon footprint. These illustrations serve as a reminder that addressing water issues calls for a fundamental change in people’s attitude, where every drop is valued and conserved.

To make a difference, smarter ways of managing demand and avoiding waste need to be implemented. Grundfos water management approaches have primarily focused on supply and expansion, rather than demand management. Water management is currently fragmented, with different sectors operating in isolation. Confronting the crisis will require collaboration, shifting from a supply-driven approach to one that prioritises the fair and sustainable use of water, ensuring that this finite resource remains available for future generations.

Technological intervention: Key driving factor for sustainable change

To address the increasing water crisis, it needs to transition from a linear ‘use-and-dispose’ model to a circular model in which wastewater will be treated as a viable resource rather than waste. This switch can relieve the strain on freshwater supplies and encourage sustainable water use. Today, in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, about 49% of treated wastewater is reused; in comparison, Delhi and Hyderabad reuse only 19% and 6%, respectively, showing that there is still vast untapped potential for recycling and reusing water in India.

Decentralised wastewater treatment systems are key since they treat water near where it is used, enabling greater reuse of non-potable water for irrigation and industrial uses. One widely cited success story is Alappuzha in Kerala, where community-level wastewater treatment plants have improved sanitation and allowed for local reuse. Complementing these efforts, clean energy initiatives are being integrated into water management systems elsewhere. Karnataka Surya Raitha Scheme aims to provide solar-powered irrigation pumps to farmers, minimising dependence on conventional energy sources and promoting sustainable farming practices to provide additional income. 

The systems are further enhanced by integrating smart infrastructure technologies such as demand-driven distribution technologies developed by Grundfos using sensor-based high-efficiency pumps that adjust automatically to water demand, cutting waste and expense. To scale these solutions, massive infrastructure investment is vital. The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) mandates specialised pumping systems for the fine transportation of treated water for reuse in various sectors.

By bringing together local reuse systems, renewable energy mappings, and intelligent pump technologies, India can transform water management into a circular sustainable model that ensures water for generations.

Opportunities

To foster sustainability in water utilities, reducing carbon footprint, utilising energy-efficient technologies, and utilizing renewable energy like solar is crucial. Shift to powering water systems with renewable energy and energy-efficient technologies. Utilities can provide clean water to remote areas using off-grid, solar-powered pumping systems. Such decentralised systems enable better service coverage; they also help build sustainable socio-economic development by giving communities access to water reliably and affordably.

Meanwhile, Grundfos iSOLUTIONS are transforming the operations of water utilities. These systems deploy smart meters, cloud analytics, and real-time monitoring to improve water flows. Utilities will be able to identify leaks instantly, tune the pumping to actual demand, and have more accurate data for planning maintenance and upgrades. This greatly minimises non-revenue water (NRW), energy use, and operating expenses.

Real-world impact: A case study from Cambodia

One compelling example is the sustainable water systems from the Takeo province of Cambodia, where the Takeo Safe Water Supply utility experienced significant problems with water pressure and high NRW. They had water wasted, used too much energy, and had maintenance challenges that led to unreliable service.

To solve this, the utility worked with Grundfos to install a demand-driven distribution system and a smart sensor-based system that varies pump pressure according to real-time water demand in the network. This helped the utility keep water pressure even, minimise leaks, and reduce waste of water and energy. This led to a 20% saving in energy use and 13% water loss at the utility, as well as greater service reliability and reduced maintenance costs. This illustrates how sustainable practices and smart technologies can lead to significant gains in green and operational metrics.

Now and future: A cultural shift in communities mindsets 

In Bengaluru, a model of sustainable water management can be found at the GM Infinite apartment complex in Jalahalli West. The residents use an advanced treatment system that purifies wastewater from the sewage treatment plant (STP) to make drinking water, and they recycle about 1.5 lakh litres a day for toilet flushing and cleaning. It greatly diminishes their dependence on fresh water and is a model for any housing development seeking to become water-resilient. This tale illustrates how a cultural transformation driven by community, education, and sustainability can yield deep and durable results.

Renewable energy, digital transformation, and new water management methods could enable the water industry to pioneer a path toward a sustainable and efficient future. However, resilient utilities do not sprout overnight; they are nurtured by a culture that welcomes change, seeks efficiency, and cares about sustainability.

To make water utilities sustainable over the long term, a culture of sustainability must be developed, encompassing collaboration, leadership, and a commitment to continuous innovation. The question is not whether this needs to be done but how quickly society can come together to ensure clean water for future generations. Bangalore is a contemporary story, driven by a single choice, step, and drop.

Yash Dynamics Private Limited offers locally manufactured PTFE liners in India, reducing reliance on imports and offering high-quality, cost-effective solutions for automotive control cables in high-temperature, high-performance applications.

Automobile manufacturing is changing rapidly to meet the latest demands for luxury, safety, and long-lasting performance. Amenities like throttle, clutch brake systems, have become more standard.

PTFE liners allow the incorporation of these features into automotive control cables with greater efficiency and reliability. Both consumer demand and evolving markets drive the increased use of mechanical functions in cars. These advances require control cables to work harder at higher temperatures continuously for years. The use of control cables will continue to grow thanks to:

• Continuous advancements in vehicle features
• An expectation of comfort and ergonomics
• A drive toward longer warranties and decades of operational efficiency for system assemblies

In addition to vehicle components that are more futuristic and consumer-facing, new designs for fuel and braking systems, powertrains, chassis, and interiors also require high-performance cabling. Here, PTFE liners play key roles wherever cables need thinner but better and smoother liner materials that can withstand ever-increasing service temperatures.

Characteristics of PTFE liners that make them an excellent choice for automotive applications include:

• High/low-temperature resistance
• Chemical and hydrolysis resistance
• High dielectric properties
• Stress-crack resistance
• Dimensional stability
• Low permeability
• Low coefficient of friction

Indian market scenario

The present PTFE liners market for control cables is being served by limited international tube manufacturing companies, which makes any Indian automotive OEM company largely dependent on international sourcing, leaving them with:

1. Undetermined priced purchases and import costs
2. Import hassles
3. Forex Fluctuations
4. Ungoverned quality control
5. Long delivery period
6. Long-term stock planning
7. Fund blocking
8. Stringent availability

PTFE tube manufacturing challenges

Raw material sourcing presents a significant challenge. Most PTFE fine powder manufacturers worldwide already have technical support agreements with existing international PTFE tube manufacturers, leading to limitations in technical support, process expertise, equipment specifications, and more. Identifying candidates for raw material grades based on properties and standards for a specific application is also tricky for any PTFE tube manufacturer.

Manufacturing requirements are also a challenge. PTFE tubing demands strict quality parameters due to its application and tight tolerances. Key quality parameters of PTFE tubes are surface smoothness, ovality, tensile strength, elongation, concentricity, ID/OD maintenance, and long length for control cables. This makes the manufacturing technique and equipment highly complex.

Another major barrier to manufacturing PTFE tubes is that production technology is proprietary in nature, and machine lines are to be designed and developed jointly by PTFE tube manufacturers and raw material technical collaborators.
