Magnet-free motor solution

ALUMOTOR is an electric motor solution designed for applications where supply chain security and robustness are critical.

The aluminium-wound design is permanent magnet  free and low copper, enabling a more robust and sustainable supply chain and removing up to 60% of the cost of a standard electric motor.

It includes hairpin winding configuration and innovative cooling technology, enabling increased operating efficiency whilst keeping costs low.

ALUMOTOR is best suited to light commercial vehicle, off-highway and specialised vehicle applications requiring a robust, low-cost and more sustainable solution for their electric vehicle portfolios.
