High Torque
Density Traction Motor

Developed under contract from the U.S. Army TACOM, the motor is of a pancake type design with water-cooled stators.

The controller design is based on hysteretic switching of input current. Water cooled power IGBTs have control signals transmitted via fiber optic cables to prevent adverse effects of electrical interference.

Brassboard assembly and tests with partial loads have already been completed.

Details:
