Electric motors: finding alternatives to polluting combustion engines

France is one of the main emitters of CO₂ in Europe, a gas that accounts for nearly 75% of greenhouse gas emissions.

We know that a large share of CO₂ emissions comes from vehicles equipped with hydraulic drive systems or internal combustion engines.

For example, the agriculture sector alone contributes around 11 million tonnes of CO₂, directly linked to energy consumption by agricultural and forestry machinery (source: CITEPA). These numbers are alarming and staggering. As a result, innovative companies are working to find cleaner, more environmentally friendly solutions.

This is the case with BIBUS France, whose commitment to businesses includes adapting to new environmental constraints. In partnership with manufacturers such as I&W, BIBUS France offers innovative industrial solutions that meet increasingly demanding industry standards in terms of environmental compliance, noise reduction, ergonomics, and consumable use (e.g. fuel).

I&W Electric Drive Motors: Enhancing the Performance of Your Professional Vehicles

BIBUS France has partnered with I&W Engineering, a Swiss company founded in 2015 specializing in the design and production of electric drive motors, in order to provide customized solutions for professionals.

Their offering is unique: the company designs tailor-made electric motors using the DriveSys© software, and provides engineering services for integrated system solutions.

I&W’s industrial electric motors are designed to meet a wide range of needs:

• Autonomous agricultural robots
• Monorail systems for mining
• Tracked vehicles
• Towing tractors
• Logistics solutions
• Construction applications
  

This patented concept is one-of-a-kind and has already gained traction. More compact and 40% smaller than conventional drive motors, I&W’s integrated electric motors combine a motor, brake, and gearbox in a single unit.

They offer high maneuverability, which translates into significant cost savings and operational advantages in daily operations.

Together with I&W, BIBUS France is helping develop high-performance, environmentally friendly industrial solutions, in line with the highest engineering and production standards.
