Series production
Highly efficient
electric motors for all applications
We develop customised electric motors in quantities of 1 to 10,000 without expensive tools and high one-off costs. We realise unrivalled efficiency and maximum performance – just as you wish.
Customised electrification solutions have never been so easy.
Unrivaled efficiency
Electric motors move the world. The requirements are as unique as their application. While in the past, standard catalogue motors often had to be used, we supply our partners with specialised electric motors in quantities of between 1 and 10,000 units per year. By perfectly adapting the motors to the respective application, we reduce losses and optimise performance to the maximum!
High-performance synchronous machine
In addition to high efficiency, the focus is particularly on high-power densities and optimised cooling solutions in high-performance applications such as motor sports.
Modern hairpin designs now achieve power densities of 25 kW/kg and efficiencies of up to 98%. Using adapted manufacturing processes, it is possible to produce up to 10,000 customised units per year without incurring high tooling and one-off costs.
Highly efficient asynchronous machines
Asynchronous motors are characterised by their simplicity. They are robust, durable and cost-effective. Thanks to a new generation of high-speed asynchronous machines, the technology is also becoming increasingly more exciting for traction drives.
The advantages of the technology:
– no holding torque when idling
– no rare earths
– simple and robust technology
– scalable for all sizes
The use of hairpin technology not only allows for improved efficiency, but also for very good industrialisability of the designs, with very high flexibility and versatility of application.
Axial flux motors for maximum torques
Axial flux motors are among the future technologies of electromobility. The motors can be built extremely flat, but can achieve up to 30% higher torque densities than comparable radial flux motors.
With the development of new coil designs and optimised bus bars, the technology is more exciting than ever before.
Efficient Drives Specialized electric motors
Today’s electric motors often utilise technologies from the last century.
With increasing demands for energy efficiency and CO2 savings, the need for new solutions to make the future of drive technology more sustainable is also growing.
Additive Drives was founded out of a deep desire for more innovation and has developed into a pioneer in electrical engineering. For years, we have been dedicated to developing new technologies in order to realise a new generation of electric motors. With solutions such as the NextPin, we are offering the future of electromobility.
Flexible Series production
Using a modern plant infrastructure, Efficient Drives enables the production of customised electric motors in quantities of up to 10,000 units per year without high investment costs.
Production of stators
The in-house production of copper wire, adapted and state-of-the-art plant technology for the production of hairpin conductors, as well as optimised processes, enable the flexible manufacturing of various stator designs: hairpin, wavewinding or the trend-setting X-Pin technology.
The in-house system infrastructure makes it possible to realise various designs in a short time and with little tooling effort, which not only reduces production costs but also allows for short delivery times.
Injection molding Bus bars
A specially developed injection moulding process for high-purity copper combines the advantages of 3D printing and large-scale production: high design freedom in large quantities.
Highly efficient rotors
Whether for permanently excited synchronous machines, asynchronous machines or separately excited synchronous machines: the production of highly efficient rotors enables electric motors to reach the next level.
