Latest Company Updates:
November 2023- A Central Texas-based motor company is looking to expand its workforce and footprint in Austin and Mexico on the back of raising $185 million in funding. Infinitum, founded in 2016 by CEO Ben Schuler, makes motors that include circuit boards that cut down on some of the costly equipment required in traditional motors. As a result, Infinitum says its motors are more efficient, smaller, and quieter than traditional motors. Just Climate, a climate-focused investment business, led Infinitum's latest funding round. In total, Infinitum has raised $350 million in funding to date.
October 2023- US Electric motor design and software company ECM PCB Stator Tech unveiled a fully integrated electric motor controller that is fully customizable and facilitates premium system efficiencies. ECM's 5kW Unum Potentia motor controller was developed to maximize the benefits of the Boston-based startup's PrintStator Motor CAD platform and PCB Stator innovation. As a unit, the controller delivers a measured efficiency of 98 percent. When combined with a PrintStator-designed PCB Stator machine, ECM's new controller enables IE5 ultra-efficiency performance in electric motor systems. In addition to premium efficiency, the new motor controller further advances the form factor and design optimization capabilities of ECM's PrintStator Motor-CAD. As a software platform, PrintStator powers the custom design, manufacture, and integration of PCB Stator electric motors to precise performance and form factor requirements. ECM's new motor controller is customizable via PrintSator and fully integrated, both structurally and thermally, to the resulting motor housing. This provides the most compact footprint possible. Pairing the controller to ECM's PrintStator CAD platform enables full motor system optimization. ECM's software is capable of outputting motor tuning parameters and translating those into a code file that uploads to the controller. This makes ECM's motor system design capabilities truly plug-and-play. The controller schematic is equipped to run motors from 3kW up to 8kW based on component changes; however, the board itself and its footprint stay the same. Additional specifications of ECM's Unum Potentiala motor controller include the following:
- Operates on a 220 & 4803-phase AC supply
- Offers sensorless control capable of running motors down to ~50rpm
- FETs are capable of switching upwards of 100kHz
Top listed global companies in the industry are:
- Baldor
- Marathon Electric Motors
- Us Motors
- Fasco Motors
- Genteq Motors and others.
