Discover how solid-rotor technology revolutionizes the performance of standard induction electric motors by extending their capabilities and eliminating the need for gearboxes. In this session, we’ll explore how low-voltage solutions can achieve power outputs ranging from 500 to 2,000 kW, and how the latest medium-voltage solutions can deliver power beyond 2 MW for demanding applications.
