The central feature of the new motor is that it is inductive and thus has contactless power transmission—this allows the motor to operate wear-free and efficiently at high speeds. MAHLE claims that ...

Mahle, is developing a new magnet-free electric motor for EVs. This electric motor claims to not require rare earth metals that are not only tedious to find but also expensive. The motor has inductive ...

The electric motors that power today’s EVs rely on permanent magnets made using rare-earth metals such as neodymium. Rare earths are the 15 elements whose atomic numbers run from 57 to 71, plus ...

Is the dependence on rare earths for electric vehicle motors soon to be over? A magnet-free innovation promises to enhance motor efficiency while being more environmentally friendly. Mahle, based in ...

While electric vehicles certainly offer a host of eco-friendly advantages, they're not without some asterisks, one being the rare earth materials (and harmful mining thereof) used to make the magnets ...

Honda has has recently co-developed world's first hybrid motor that is free of any heavy rare earth elements. Honda has has recently co-developed world's first hybrid motor that is free of any heavy ...

Emil Motors was founded by engineers Maximilian Güttinger and Johannes Unhold with the objective of redesigning the electric motor to eliminate reliance on rare earth materials while maintaining ...

Stefan Floeck, Division President of IEC Low Voltage Motors at ABB Motion, introduces a groundbreaking innovation: magnet-free synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM) technology has now achieved the ...

The future of electric vehicles has become more environmentally friendly, according to ZF, which has produced an electric motor without rare earth metals that doesn’t compromise on performance. During ...

German tier 1 supplier ZF has developed an electric motor which does not require magnets. The company says in contrast to the magnet-free concepts of so-called separately excited synchronous motors ...
