The Switch DC-Hub: What efficient power distribution can offer today’s vessels
Power electronics and semiconductors are a key element to having the flexibility to use different energy sources, different energy storages and different energy loads – and you can get all of this with a converter system.
PM machines for powering ships: Why it’s a good idea?
Permanent magnet machines have been utilized with great success in numerous fields to date, including distributed power generation, elevators and hybrid cars. Read on to find out what immense benefits PM generators bring also to ships compared to traditional technologies.
Recap of our strategy
I promised you last July in my first newsletter to keep our customers in the center of all our activities. I made this promise because I really believe that key to our success as a product supplier is to support the business of our existing and new customers in all possible ways.
Fast-forward into fall
I feel that I wrote my last newsletter intro just recently. Still, it seems to be already more than 3 months ago. I must say time is flying fast! But then again while looking back, I can see that a lot has happened since July.
It’s time to consider a permanent magnet (PM) shaft generator
COVID-19 has slowed down the world. The marine industry is slow to begin with – and now even slower. Still, some progressive bulk carrier and oil tanker companies are placing orders for future vessels. Why? Read in this new marine blog.
An exciting ride toward making the switch
Being in the driver’s seat of The Switch since its inception in 2006 has been the highlight of my career. As of June 30, with full confidence, I am handing the keys of The Switch over to the next generation.
Switching on frequently 01/2020: Keeping busy
The fight against the coronavirus is taking a lot of extra time from all of us. But we at The Switch are well positioned to get past these temporary difficulties. Our factories are keeping up 100% production capacity. And we continue delivering our products as promised.
