Axial Flux Motor: A Technology Made For Commercial Vehicles?
Future car sales have already been limited to emissions-free all-electric models by 2035 and we’re now also seeing several countries laying the first foundations toward zero-emission road mobility targets for…
Are Energy Costs Redefining E-Axle Requirements?
The first automobiles were introduced more than a century ago. Over the years, and like any other business, car manufacturers have had to adapt to market changes to retain their…
Axial Flux Motor vs Radial Flux Motor: A Focus on Magnetic Field Orientation
Compared to traditional radial flux electric motors used in the majority of automotive applications, axial flux machines, especially “single stator – double rotor” topologies, are more effective in an electromagnetic…
How a Traxial Motor Maximizes Resource Efficiency
Anti-EV provocateurs often refer to the total carbon footprint, where an electric car is only as green as the source of electricity the consumer uses to charge it, and where…
Why Aren’t All Electric Vehicle Motors Axial Flux (Yet)?
Axial flux technology was already researched and patented by Nikola Tesla back in 1889, and the advantages of the technology compared to conventional radial flux PM motors are extensive. From…
Double-rotor or Double-stator: a Matter of Efficiency
If you’re familiar with electric motors, you’ve probably noticed that not all axial flux motors are the same. Traxial opted for a single-stator double-rotor (SSDR) configuration, while other axial flux motor…
Let’s Talk about In-wheel Motors
In recent years, we’ve seen some vehicle developers moving towards powertrain configurations where the motor is mounted inside the wheel: an in-wheel motor system. We must admit, there is an…
