FAVI SA소개 |
| Based in Hallencourt since 1957, the history of FAVI has been shaped through the listening of its customers and the market evolution. As a sub-contractor of copper alloys pressure die-casting, originally for sanitary components, the company had quickly become the European market leader for the manufacturing of gearbox forks and provides today one European car over two.
Mastey of the manufacturing process: from the raw material (recycling market) to the manufacturing (foundry, machining, assembly) untill the delivery of mechanical products and sub-assemblies with a quality insurance.
=> European market leader for the manufacturing of gearbox forks. 48% European market share.
Our main customers : PSA, VW, Renault, Fiat, Audi, Ford, Volvo
=> Mastery of die-casting high-conductivity pure copper for higher energetic efficiency products: the ROTOR market for high-efficiency asynchronous electric motors for industrial applications and electric vehicles.
Our main customers : motor manufacturers, vehicles (electric car, tramways, etc...)
Technical components manufacturing:
From 4g to 5kgs, our technical components are used in the following fields :
- Water meters- Water industry- Electrical industry- Lock industry
- Sanitary products- Agricultural industry- Fire equipment
Our customers: plumbing and sanitary fittings manufacturers, locking systems, and water meters manufacturers (Elster Metering, Schenider Electric, Assa-Abbloy)
FAVI is an environment-care company (it was the first French company to be certified QSE, Quality, Security, Environment). Its last innovation, from 2000, has been a great challenge: to succeed in die-casting pure copper to manufacture rotors for high-efficiency electric motors.
The die-cast copper rotor, which production in series has started in 2002, increases significantly the motors efficiency, thanks to the higher electric conductivity of copper.
Efficiency is normalized by three classes: IE1 (standard motors), IE2 (high-efficiency motors), IE3 (very high-efficiency motors)
If all the European industries were equipped by optimized motors (very high-efficiency motors IE3 + speed variator), we could save:
230 TeraWh of electricity
or 100 millions tons of CO2
or the 1/3 of the KYOTO agreements targets
The IE3 class setting the characteristics of very high-efficiency motors is announced to be applied by the CEE from 2015. However, solutions already exist today and nothing would avoid a short-term imposition of this label, for the advantage of a higher-efficiency and the decrease of CO2 emissions, a main issue in the fight against global-warming. |
