High speed motor for turbo applications sets the new standard
Yaskawa Environmental Energy / The Switch has delivered thousands of high-speed motors in serial production to several world leading manufacturers for their specialised turbo pump and compressors applications. Based on more than two decades of experience, the same technology is now introducing motors paired with drives, offering unrivalled cost and size advantages in powers of 300kW to 1.5MW and speeds of 6,000 to 15,000 rpm.
The robust solid rotor motor eliminates the need for a gearbox, while allowing the application to reach higher speeds and availability. Mechanical problems associated with gearboxes are no longer an issue while fewer components also reduces maintenance.
