Rail Industry
Magnomatics is playing a role in the transformation of the rail industry as it seeks to deliver more sustainable, efficient and reliable transport networks. With increasing demand for electrification and reduced carbon emissions, rail operators and manufacturers are investing in advanced traction and auxiliary systems. Our technologies support improvements in efficiency, mass reduction and system performance, contributing to the development of modern rail solutions for both passenger and freight transportation.
PDD® traction motors deliver significant torque in a small volume, giving increased flexibility to vehicle designers. Through a fully integrated contactless magnetic gear the motor produces high torques at speeds appropriate for direct-drive of vehicle wheels.
The removal of mechanical gear stages increases efficiency, reduces maintenance requirements and increases reliability.
Due to its high torque capability the PDD® can produce sufficient torque within the limited space of a wheel-hub and due to its large airgaps, is able to withstand the severe shock loads associated with wheel hub applications.
