HVACR Motor Solutions
As one of the largest electric motor markets in the world, HVACR is leading the transition to PCB Stator technology.
Introducing High-Efficiency HVACR motor Solutions
Considering increasing international energy efficiency regulation, ECM provides a simplified option to not just meet, but exceed regulatory minimums.
ECM’s PCB Stator Technology offers advanced, high-performance motors with maximum efficiencies exceeding 90% efficiency. Utilizing proprietary technology, ECM’s solutions can be easily designed for the exact specifications of the application and enable a high system efficiency.
Allowing Compact & Lightweight Motors
ECM has the capability to engineer motors with significantly decreased weight and ultra-thin physical profiles.
ECM’s PCB Stator motors demand considerably fewer raw materials and feature an axial flux design, enabling them to achieve up to a 70% reduction in weight compared to conventional machines, despite being only a fraction of their axial length.
High System Efficiency & Controllability
ECM’s proprietary copper geometries offer the unique advantage of varying the copper thickness across a single “winding” to reduce resistance and Eddy current losses.
Leveraging PrintStator enables the production of unique, optimized designs that have been created considering the overall system efficiency. ECM’s software can design a motor with the exact speed, power and torque required for each application.
Additionally, the controllability of ECM’s machines with a variable frequency drive allows for the manufacture of intelligent, next-gen HVACR solutions with the ability to alter the power consumption depending on the duty cycle.
Mass &
Envelope Reduction
PCB Stator motors necessitate considerably fewer raw materials, enabling them to achieve a weight reduction of up to 70% compared to traditional machines with an up to 80% decrease in raw materials.
Featuring an axial flux form factor, ECM’s PCB Stator motors comprise of just a fraction of the axial length seen in conventional, radial flux machines.
Precision Solutions with PrintStator
PrintStator automates the design of motors with precise operational characteristics, drastically minimizing design cycle time, and eliminating human errors.
ECM’s advanced design package enables unique design flexibility, allowing the design of the exact motor solution required for the operating points of any given HVACR application.
With PrintStator, engineers can optimize designs for efficiency, cost, size, weight, voltage, and more.
