Schaeffler India Opens Research Facility at IISC

Schaeffler India has announced the opening of a computational research infrastructure at the Foundation for Science Innovation and Development (FSID), Bengaluru, as part of its engagement with the Indian Institute of Science (IISC). The facility will support high-performance computing, large-scale simulations, data-intensive modelling and advanced analytics across materials, energy systems and sustainable mobility.

The initiative includes dedicated lab space, advanced in-rack cooling systems, power backup and high-performance hybrid computing workstations or clusters. It is expected to improve computational efficiency, strengthen research quality and enable greater industry relevance across collaborative projects.

The facility will directly benefit IISC faculty, FSID-incubated start-ups, external start-ups, MSMEs and industry partners engaged in R&D collaborations. It will also support PhD scholars, postgraduate and undergraduate students, postdoctoral researchers and the wider academic and industrial ecosystem.

Schaeffler India has also signed a Master Research Agreement with IISC to support future research projects. The company said the initiative, supported through its CSR programme HOPE, reflects its focus on academia-industry collaboration, skills development and manufacturing excellence.

The infrastructure is planned with a long-term aim of creating a high-performance computational facility with peak performance of around 32 PFLOPs, comprising a mix of CPUs and GPUs. The partnership is expected to accelerate scientific output, strengthen research capabilities and support industry-relevant technology development.
