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.…
Runtech placed a multi-million-euro order with The Switch for turbo motors to be used in their vacuum pump systems.
In 2020, we launched our SRS standalone high-speed machine and the “no gear” marketing campaign. We wanted to show customers who need high rotational speed that we provide an attractive possibility to remove the complicated, low-efficiency and expensive mechanical gear from their systems. Now in 2023, there seems to be push for even further with…
Making permanent results The Switch was founded in 2006 with a challenger mindset. We wanted to break the status quo in the wind industry by pushing the permanent magnet (PM) generator and full-power converter drive train as the technology of choice. Nearly 15 years later, there has been a shift in wind power technology with…
