How modularity of integrated EDUs can power the mass adoption of EVs
The history of electric car technology started over 200 years ago but it’s only since the renewed interest in the last decade that we’ve witnessed several technological pushes. For powertrain…
And onto Torque Vectoring, the Next Step in Electric Vehicle Design
In the first phase of vehicle electrification, the focus was on acceleration and speed. Nowadays, the design parameters go beyond performance and touch on requirements that should not only improve…
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…
