Fanning the Winds of Change

In 1971, belt-driven fans were the only option for automotive cooling. Searching for a more efficient method, Australian engineers Daryl Davies and Bill Craig created the Thermatic Fan. Davies, Craig was formed to manufacture the new electric fans, and has since developed a comprehensive range, covering most makes of vehicles. A Davies, Craig innovation, electric cooling has now become a standard feature on most of the world's new cars

The Birth of The Electric Water Pump

In the mid 1990’s, the company started to investigate the next frontier of electronic conversion within the automotive engine, and the concept of the Electric Water Pump (EWP) was born. The Mechanical Water Pump is one of the last mechanical components of the modern engine which has long been considered an inefficient component designed as an accessory for the first engines. On the 1st July 1999, the first Electric Water Pump was released to the world, the EWP80. Major European Manufacturers have since implemented EWP’s as standard issue on a number of their vehicles.
