Toka's continuously variable transmission (CVT) technology is designed for power levels ≤ 45 kW (xEV & ICE). Key applications include:

⚡ e-Axle for LEVs (3/4-wheelers, ATVs, golf carts)
🏍 Motorcycles & Scooters (alternative to rubber-belt CVTs)
⚙ Generators (CVT improved part-load efficiency)
🔧 Variable Speed Drives (compressors, pumps, HVAC, microCHP)
🌊 Marine Transmissions (outboard motors)
🔋 Renewable Energy (small-scale wave/wind/solar - FES synthetic inertia)
🤖 Robotics & Automation (precision actuators, multi-axis control systems)

Toka’s patent-pending CVT (PCT/IB2022/055940 – EU, US, JP, IN) leverages proven engineering principles to deliver a customisable, high-performance solution tailored for specific torque, durability & duty cycle requirements. Key Features:

• Full CVT Capability: maintains maximum input torque across all ratios
• Bidirectional Operation: efficient power transfer in both directions
• High Efficiency: achieves 91-94% efficiency (MATLAB Simscape simulation)
• Application Optimisation: configurable ratios (e.g. 250%, 374%, 510%)
• High-Speed Input: handles up to 21,000 rpm
• Responsive Control: electronic ratio control (enables modes e.g. eco, power, sport)
• Durable & Low Maintenance: shaft-driven, fully enclosed, (near-zero upkeep)
• Compact & Lightweight: weighs 2.3 kg at 374% ratio (excluding packaging)
• Energy Recovery: at much higher efficiency ratios than currently possible with electro-mechanical drives

Development Status: Advancing through TRL 4 with validation imminent. Seeking industry partnerships for application development. Partner prototype testing expected Q3 2025.

NEW: Integrated Drivetrain Systems

An integrated drivetrain (motor, controller & CVT) can significantly reduce mechanical integration and control system complexities, thereby accelerating time-to-market for OEMs. Furthermore, by leveraging detailed electric motor mapping and enabling multi-objective optimisation of the motor and the CVT, we will tailor the system to:

• Minimise energy losses
• Optimise thermal management, and
• Maximise torque output over a wide operating range

This integrated optimisation not only further reduces power consumption but also enhances dynamic performance and durability - allowing for even greater down-sizing of the motor and appropriate sizing of the CVT, without sacrificing performance. Thus, the holistic system can deliver efficiency and performance gains well beyond the improvements achievable through individual component optimisation.
