And one that is completely tune-able by the customer to the specific needs of their vehicle \u2013 be that an electric hypercar, delivery truck or an automated vehicle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Titan\u2019s new steer-by-wire system is the result of a meticulous R&amp;D process undertaken at the company\u2019s HQ in Cambridgeshire, UK. Like all of Titan\u2019s high-tech steering systems \u2013 the company offers the full product range, from manual steering to hydraulic power steering and electric power steering (EPAS) \u2013 the all-new by-wire system is designed, developed and manufactured completely in-house, rooted in intellectual property solely-owned by Titan itself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For its next-generation steer-by-wire system, Titan has developed a completely bespoke electric motor, which it manufactures in-house alongside the entire steering system, and a bespoke electronic control system, biased to 48-volts, with both systems enabling optimum performance and, equally as importantly, infinite tunability<a href=\"https:\/\/www.totalkitcar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1_Titan_By-wire-steering-min.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-27920 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.totalkitcar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1_Titan_By-wire-steering-min-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paul Wilkinson, technical director, of Titan, further explained<strong>:<\/strong>\u00a0<em>\u201c<\/em>Our in-house developed technology optimises the relationship between the motor and the control system, resulting in a by-wire system that sets new standards.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCombined with Titan\u2019s approach, which sees us work closely with every customer, the system is a highly tune-able toolbox, enabling lower-volume next-gen vehicle makers to calibrate steering responses exactly to application, whether an EV hypercar or electric truck, resulting in just the right \u2018feel\u2019 for the driver. What\u2019s more, thanks to the company\u2019s in-house expertise, we can close the loop, taking a system from clean-sheet design to full industrialisation under one roof, and do so rapidly to the very highest levels of quality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As well as being completely tune-able for individual applications, the company\u2019s new by-wire system is also scalable and optimised for particularly challenging packaging requirements, while Titan\u2019s experience in precision manufacturing means it can create anything from a first prototype to a final production run with unparalleled quality at lower-volume. All of Titan\u2019s steering systems are bespoke-designed for lower-volume applications, catering for one-offs to 100 unit\/month volumes, with production times for initial prototypes measured in days, not months.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">George Lendrum concluded:\u00a0\u201cThis new by-wire system builds on the reputation Titan has forged in designing, developing and precision manufacturing the world\u2019s leading electric steering systems for the auto industry. This advanced, state-of-the-art system, combined with our inherent flexibility, uniquely positions Titan as the go-to lower-volume steering supplier for manufacturers of next-generation vehicles, whatever the application.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.titan.uk.com\/\">www.titan.uk.com<\/a> <strong>ENDS.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Titan, the leader in advanced electric steering systems for lower-volume manufacturers, today launches its state-of-the-art steer-by-wire system, offering makers of next-generation models, from electric hypercars <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/2023\/09\/14\/its-a-titan\/\" title=\"IT&#039;S A TITAN!\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27919","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27919","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27919"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27919\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27919"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27919"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27919"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
