Electro-Hydraulic Braking Systems

IPGATE’s unique patent portfolio for electro-hydraulic braking systems has been continuously evolving since 2005 and combines the system basics with new developments geared towards disruptive technologies like electro-mobility and automated driving. The 1-Box Integrated Braking System IBS can without doubt be described as the future. In all areas of performance concerning modern braking systems, IBS systems meet or exceed the level of established systems like ABS or ESP. Innovative electromechanical brake boosters (e-BKV) and 2-Box systems (e-BKV in combination with a standard ESP unit) are also important elements of the patent portfolio.
