Magnomatics’ Pseudo Direct Drive (PDD®) offers significant advantages over conventional permanent magnet motor/generator technology, achieving a step-change in continuous torque density and highest efficiency.
This allows the motor to directly drive many loads where conventionally a motor and gearbox combination would be employed.
An ideal application will have high continuous torque at relatively low speed.
Advantages:
– Very high efficiency over a wide operating range
– Significantly smaller and lighter than direct drive equivalents
– No gearbox – improving reliability and reducing maintenance
– Low cooling requirements
– Built-in torsional compliance reduces drivetrain pulsations
– Low NVH
– Unique passive torque fuse protects drive-train
– Operates with large airgaps to enable high shock rating
