Training Workshop: Fundamentals of Electric Vehicle Lubrication
Conducted by Dr. Edward Becker, President & Founder, Friction & Wear Solutions LLC
April 26, 2022
Bangkok, Thailand

Learn lubrication fundamentals and how they apply to current and future automotive propulsion systems, as well as the lubrication challenges unique to hybrid and full electric vehicles. 

This training workshop will also include a special presentation by Mike Kunselman of the Center for Quality Assurance (CQA), who will discuss the current development of fluids for electrified vehicles by the International Fluids Consortium (IFC), a not-for-profit organization based in the United States, consisting of 11 OEMs and an equal number of industry affiliate members. IFC is bringing together a collective voice on the practical application of fluid technology and what the standards and specifications will be for fluids for electrified powertrains in preparation for 50% carbon reduction by 2035 and carbon neutrality by 2050. One part of its mission is to make IFC a sustainable program through trademark licensing. CQA is the program administrator for the International Fluids Consortium.

Who Should Attend?

The class is intended for managers, engineers, scientists, technicians, service and sales professionals involved in lubricants and coolants for automotive transportation. Attendees should have a good understanding of basic physics and chemistry.

Why Should You Attend?

Students will benefit from the detailed descriptions of the tribological requirements of modern automobiles. Attendees will gain a better understanding of the various moving components in an automobile powertrain, including internal combustion engines and electric motors, and the challenges of managing friction and wear to improve efficiency and durability. Course modules will include the specific challenges of cooling for battery-powered vehicles and hybrids. Students will be better prepared to deal with the range of options for lubricating and cooling as the market for electric vehicles and hybrids rapidly expands. The latest efforts to develop standards and specifications for EV fluids will also be covered in a special presentation by the International Fluids Consortium.

Workshop Leader

Dr. Edward Becker earned a B.S in Metallurgical Engineering from the Illinois Institute of Technology and an M.S in Metallurgical Engineering from the University of Illinois. He joined General Motors at the Cadillac Motor Car Division in Detroit, Michigan, U.S.A. While at GM, he received his Professional Engineer’s license, and earned an M.S. and Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Michigan through the GM Technical Education program. He retired from General Motors after 30 years of service, mostly in the Powertrain division working on a variety of GM engines, transmissions, and rare earth permanent magnets for electric motors.

Training Workshop: Developing and Managing Sustainable Metalworking Fluids
Conducted by Patrick Brutto, CMFS, Founder and Technical Application Specialist, Faith-Full MWF Consulting; Dr. Peerawatt Nunthavarawong, Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering (Tribology), King Mongkut’s University of Technology North Bangkok; Dr. Numpon Mahayotsanun, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Khon Kaen University

Bangkok, Thailand

Longer-lasting metalworking fluids (MWFs) are more sustainable from the standpoints of cost per part and impact on the environment; less waste equals less impact. This workshop will help attendees gain a greater understanding of water-dilutable MWFs and why they fail, and learn how to minimize the risk of failure.

Who Should Attend?

This class is intended for MWF producers and distributors, raw material manufacturers and distributors (base oils, additives, etc.), MWF technical service personnel, MWF users (machinists, plant engineers, fluid managers, etc.), equipment suppliers (filtration, water treatment, mist collectors, recycling, etc.) and lab testing equipment suppliers (biological dip slides, conductivity meters, water hardness and other wet chemical test kits, etc.).

Why Should You Attend?

The demands on formulators, raw material suppliers and end users of MWFs have never been greater. Manufacturing cost and part quality requirements, competing technologies (additive manufacturing, etc.), and sustainability factors (impact on global warming, land and water, etc.) are putting greater pressure than ever on all segments of the MWF value chain. This seminar will help all MWF stakeholders learn how they can positively impact the performance and longevity of MWFs, and thereby help move the industry in a more sustainable direction.

Workshop Leader

Patrick (Pat) Brutto, M.Sc., of Faith-Full MWF Consulting
 is an STLE-certified Metalworking Fluid Specialist (CMFS) with over 34 years of global experience in metalworking fluids (MWFs), including MWF additive development and application (amino alcohols, corrosion inhibitors, biocides, specialty emulsifiers) and experience formulating and testing water-dilutable MWFs. Pat spent most of his career at ANGUS Chemical Company, as an R&D chemist and technical service specialist, along with time at Hangsterfer’s Laboratories as a global MWF scientist for their MWF product line. Pat served as a director on STLE's board in 2014-2020 and was the 2018 winner of the Vic Joll Award, an STLE National Award. He currently serves as vice-chair of STLE’s metalworking fluid education and training committee and is an active member of ASTM committee E34.50, which develops health and safety standards for MWFs.
