Danfoss Editron Electrical Machines

Danfoss Editron, a specialized division of Danfoss, is redefining drivetrain technology with its cutting-edge electric and hybrid powertrain systems. Focusing on off-highway and marine applications, the company develops and manufactures high-performance electrical machines that operate using its unique synchronous reluctance assisted permanent magnet (SRPM) technology. This innovative approach sets Danfoss Editron apart from traditional motor technologies, enabling superior performance even in the most demanding environments.

Compact Power with SRPM and PMSM Technology

At the heart of Danfoss Editron’s electric machines is its use of SRPM and permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) technology. Compared to conventional induction machines (IM) or standard permanent magnet motors, these motors offer several key advantages:

• Smaller size and lighter weight
• Higher energy efficiency
• Superior performance in harsh conditions

All electric machines are liquid-cooled and engineered to withstand the tough operational demands typical in heavy-duty vehicle and marine propulsion systems. Whether used as traction motors in construction equipment or propulsion motors in marine vessels, these machines are built to deliver reliable and powerful performance.

Versatile Motor Portfolio

Danfoss Editron offers a range of high-voltage multipurpose electric motors tailored to specific use cases and power requirements:

• EM-PMI: Delivers up to 1,000 kW – ideal for high-torque, high-efficiency applications.
• EM-PMI Project-Based: Custom-developed machines offering up to 6,000 kW – designed for unique, large-scale drivetrain needs.
• EM-PME Outer Rotor: Offers up to 50 kW – compact and efficient for lower-power requirements.

All models support dual-mode operation, functioning as either a generator or a motor depending on system needs.

Advanced Testing Capabilities

To ensure optimal performance and reduce commissioning time, Danfoss Editron provides comprehensive in-house testing. Every permanent magnet motor can be tested under full load, replicating the actual operational duty cycle. This laboratory testing capability allows customers to validate performance before installation, streamlining deployment and improving overall system reliability.

Key Applications

Danfoss Editron electrical machines are purpose-built for:

• Traction motors in heavy-duty vehicles and construction machinery
• Propulsion motors for marine vessels
• Variable-speed generators in hybrid vehicle and marine power systems

With a strong focus on innovation, energy efficiency, and robust design, Danfoss Editron continues to drive the electrification of the off-highway and marine sectors, offering sustainable and powerful solutions that meet the challenges of tomorrow’s mobility.
