Drivetrain power for vehicles, machines and marine applications
Danfoss editron electric machines are based on synchronous reluctance assisted permanent magnet (SRPM) or permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) technology. They are liquid-cooled and designed to work in harsh operating environments typical in drivetrain applications. For instance, traction motor in heavy machinery or propulsion motor in marine applications. They can work both as a generator or as a motor.
Main product groups
Compared to conventional technologies, like induction machines (IM) the electric SRPM and PMSM motors offer smaller dimensions, lighter weight and higher efficiency.
The motors are available in various speed and torque ratings:
EM-PMI with power up to 1,000 kW – high torque with high efficiency
EM-PMI project based machines with power up to 6,000 kW – high torque with high efficiency
EM-PME outer rotor machines with power up to 50 kW – high torque with high efficiency
All permanent magnet motors can be tested with full load against the actual desired workload in our own test laboratory. We can feed the work load cycle of the machine into our testing system and run loading tests in the laboratory. This significantly reduces the testing time at your premises.
Applications
Traction motors for vehicles
Propulsion motors for marine vessels
Variable-speed generators for hybrid vehicle or marine vessels

Danfoss editron
Danfoss editron specializes in hybrid and electric powertrain systems for off-highway and marine markets. A business division of Danfoss, it develops and manufactures high-performance, EDITRON power systems for heavy duty vehicles, machines and marine vessels, based on its unique synchronous reluctance assisted permanent magnet (SRPM) technology.
