Turntide Axial Flux Motor 230
Introducing Turntide’s AF230: Pioneering Efficiency in High-Torque Axial Flux Motors
In the evolving landscape of smart motor systems, Turntide proudly unveils the Axial Flux Motor 230 (AF230), a pinnacle of innovation redefining performance and efficiency in direct drive applications. Building upon the success of its predecessors, the AF230 stands out with a short motor length, flat front and back faces for seamless mounting, and a compact structure that delivers remarkable power density at 4.9 kW/kg (weight as delivered dry). With a peak efficiency surpassing 95%, this motor guarantees a powerful, energy-efficient operation. Tailor-made for high-torque scenarios, it is available configured for either one or two inverters.
Unleashing Unprecedented Efficiency
Engineered for excellence, Turntide’s AF230 features low cogging and low ripple torque, ensuring a smooth and quiet operation ideal for direct drive applications. The optional IP67 rated shaft seals enhance durability, while the low inertia composite rotor ensures excellent dynamic stability. Liquid cooling, utilizing water/glycol, takes performance to new heights, complemented by integrated PT100 winding temperature sensors and a Sin/Cos resolver, providing out-of-the-box compatibility with most commercially available inverters.
Revealing Specifications for Superior Performance
Operating at inverter supply voltages up to 800VDC, the AF230 stands out as a versatile solution in the high-torque landscape. At 600VDC, this smart motor system achieves a maximum speed of 8,000 rpm, continuous torque of 290 Nm, and a peak output power of 280 kW. Weighing 58 kg (weight as delivered dry), it sets a new standard for power-to-weight ratios, embodying a game-changer in efficiency, design, and adaptability. Both single and dual inverter variants are available to suit diverse application needs.
Understanding Axial Flux Motors
Axial flux motors, epitomized by the AF230, represent a distinctive type of electric motor where the magnetic flux flows parallel to the axis of rotation. This innovative design, featuring a short axial length, ensures a more compact structure and enhanced power density. Known for their efficiency, reduced cogging, and quiet operation, axial flux motors are ideal for diverse applications, including electric vehicles, robotics, renewable energy systems, and high-torque scenarios.
