As electrification of aircraft intensifies, French aerospace firm Safran intends to be onboard in many ways. It expects to broaden its portfolio in 2023 by acquiring the €124 million aeronautical electrical systems business of Thales. […]
hofer powertrain of Germany has developed a new magnet wire winding technology for the motors in e-powertrains to make them smaller and lighter yet just as powerful as with previous techniques. On the electronics side, […]
Developers of some motor control systems are finding it advantageous to replace Hall Effect position sensors and older magnetic resolver solutions with inductive alternatives that eliminate expensive magnets and other heavy transformer-based structures so they […]
Stellantis manufacturing sites in Italy and France are demonstrating the Dutch automotive conglomerate’s transition to dominant production of electrified vehicles for the future and establishment of a circular economy business unit. In Turin on September 20, the company announced two initiatives for its Italian operations, while also moving forward with major electrification changes to its manufacturing activity in France. […]
Focused on evolving from traditional powertrain technology to electric mobility, German motion specialist Schaeffler AG is simultaneously launching several new electric axle drives while also expanding its R&D and manufacturing operations to support product and business growth in electric vehicle technology. […]
Using motors designed and produced in-house, global pump manufacturer Grundfos is bringing new energy efficiency and capabilities to pumping systems for a broad range of applications, many of which were once were the domain of hydraulic technology. Its MGE E-motors — permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) designed especially for frequency converter operations and optimized for pump applications and high part-load efficiency — are the company’s most energy efficient yet. […]
Belgian drivetrain specialist Punch Powertrain, bent on rapidly transforming its production from conventional power systems to fully integrated EV powertrains, and TATA AutoComp Systems Limited plan to form a 50-50 joint venture that will bring the Punch e-powertrain portfolio into TATA’s manufacturing and distribution operations in India. The venture will be responsible for the design, manufacturing, marketing and sales of Punch’s DT1 compact dual clutch transmission design in India and to global markets and will also carry out a wide range of activities to supply Punch’s conventional-hybrid DCTs, continuously variable transmission and EV reducers to customers in India. […]
Backed by venture capital company Searchlight Capital Partners, Integrated Power Services continues to aggressively grow its network of motor service centers across North America. Now with 55 locations, 44 repair centers and 1,700 employees, it […]
Direct-cooled motors with hollow conductor stators offer several advantages over the indirect-cooled motors currently used in EVs, says Luvata of Finland, which has been making copper hollow conductors for more than sixty years. Adoption of the technology, typically used in more exotic applications such as superconduction, high-energy physics and magnetic resonance imaging, into mass-market electric vehicles faces considerable technical obstacles, however, and much higher cost than conventional magnet wire. […]
Booking a second major order from Hyundai for its integrated drive modules as the latest score, BorgWarner is rapidly executing on a multi-pronged electrification strategy that is dramatically changing the global automotive supplier’s product lineup and technology focus. The integrated drive modules feature an interior permanent magnet electric motor manufactured using advanced high-voltage hairpin winding technology for high power density. […]
