The motor of an electric vehicle (EV) must follow a thorough validation process. Improper assembly, insulation or alignment of these parts will damage the motor, rendering the car unusable and becoming a liability. To protect their customers as well as their brand, our client needed to develop a multi-bench validation line for a smarter solution through this shift in electric automotive technology. […]
Siemens is planning to sell off its Innomotics motor and drive business unit for €3.5 billion to investment portfolio company KPS Capital Partners. The move follows creation of Innomotics, carved out as a discrete business […]
Few companies in the industrial sector have embraced the concept of electrification on a worldwide scale as prodigiously as electrical equipment maker Ingeteam of northern Spain. Addressing multiple technologies to support propulsion, wind and solar energy, and hydrogen power, its products are increasingly spanning the globe. […]
Powered by two specially designed permanent-magnet motors and drive that operate underwater, a new commercial e-hydrofoil will soon be taking to the waters offshore Stockholm to ferry 30 people at a time at record-breaking speed and tranquility. A recent maiden voyage, aptly called a flight, saw the craft hitting its airborne take-off speed of 16 knots and quickly reaching its designed top speed of 30 knots within 16 seconds. […]
Engineers designing high-voltage motors and propulsion systems for today’s e-mobility markets must confront new challenges in thermal management. The more compact and more powerful motor systems with high power density generate intense heat over extended […]
Tier-1 automotive supplier American Axle & Manufacturing (AAM) has built a versatile, configurable platform for auto and truck manufacturers to employ in electrifying their model lineups. The electric drive units incorporate permanent-magnet or induction motors with power up to 800V and can be fully integrated with the company’s e-Beam Axles. AAM’s 3-in-1 e-Drive technology features an integrated motor, inverter and gearbox into a single assembly for advantages in packaging, performance and simplified integration. […]
While advancements in electrification often conjure up visions of electric vehicles, they also take place in many industrial applications as electromechanical systems increasingly replace hydraulic power. A fresh example is electrification of legacy hydraulic apparatus in the offshore oilfields of Brazil. Curtiss-Wright announced in February that is has signed a technology cooperation agreement with Petroleo Brasileiro, known as Petrobas, to design, manufacture, test and provide operational support for a Subsea Canned Motor Boosting System, to be deployed mudline at a Petrobras production field in the Campos Basin. […]
Holding big new orders from automakers for permanent magnets and planning to build a globally integrated enterprise for magnet and motor component manufacturing, Korean steelmaker Posco International announced on March 18 that it has successfully […]
“Electrification is the focus of the future for MAHLE as we continue to position ourselves as a systems-expertise champion in e-mobility,” said Peter Lynch, vice president of Sales & Application Engineering and president, MAHLE Industries, Inc., at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show. The company used the event’s impact as a showcase for breakthrough technology to demonstrate the latest developments in its extensive portfolio for e-mobility. […]
Combining novel nanocrystalline magnetic materials with advanced manufacturing methods, research spinout Kite Magnetics of Australia is developing electric motors and propulsion systems for electric aircraft designed to enable them to fly further, carry more and emit less. In quick succession after its spinout from Monash University in 2022, Kite has secured $1.85 million in venture funding to support its developments and formed an alliance with H3 Dynamics of France to collaborate on developing hydrogen-electric propulsion systems for aircraft.
