A Game-Changing Win: ECM’s CES 2025 Innovation Award
ECM PCB Stator Tech has been honored with the prestigious 2025 CES Innovation Award in the Sustainability and Energy Power category for its groundbreaking PrintStator Motor CAD SaaS platform. This accolade underscores ECM’s commitment to revolutionizing electric motor design and fostering sustainable practices across industries.
The award will be officially presented at CES 2025 in Las Vegas, where ECM will also be showcasing the PrintStator technology. Attendees can visit ECM’s exhibit at LVCC, North Hall – 8453, to see firsthand how this innovative software is transforming electric motor design.
What Makes PrintStator Motor CAD SaaS Stand Out?
PrintStator Motor CAD SaaS is a trailblazer in the electric motor design landscape.
By integrating patented printed-circuit-board (PCB Stator) technology with advanced Motor-CAD capabilities, ECM offers engineers a unique tool to create electric motors that are lighter, quieter, and more energy-efficient.
The software allows users to design electric motors with precision, optimizing them for specific performance and dimensional specifications. This flexibility and the rapid design-to-production cycle—reducing timelines from months or years to mere weeks—sets PrintStator apart from traditional motor design methods.
Sustainability and Efficiency: The Core of PCB Stator Technology
At the heart of PrintStator’s innovation is its focus on sustainability and efficiency.
By replacing bulky copper windings with an ultra-thin disc, PCB Stator technology significantly reduces the weight of electric motors—by up to 70%—and enhances their efficiency, achieving performance levels greater than 90%.
PrintStator designed motors also require just 20% of the raw materials compared to conventional options, and they operate more quietly, reducing noise by up to 30 dB. These advantages not only contribute to a smaller environmental footprint but also align with stringent regulatory standards such as IE4 and IE5, and U.S. and EU minimum energy performance requirements.
From Concept to Market: How PrintStator Accelerates Innovation
PrintStator Motor CAD SaaS empowers innovators to bring their electric motor concepts to market swiftly and efficiently. By offering a SaaS license and a PCB Stator Motor Evaluation Kit program, ECM provides comprehensive support for motor design and prototyping.
The platform’s vertical integration capabilities enable users—from SMEs to large enterprises—to leverage ECM’s global PCB production partner network. This infrastructure facilitates rapid prototyping, immediate time-to-market, and enhanced supply-chain control, allowing for seamless scalability and innovation.
Global Recognition and Future Showcases: ECM’s Journey Ahead
ECM’s PrintStator Motor CAD SaaS has garnered significant global recognition, including its second consecutive CES Innovation Award. This accolade is a testament to the company’s vision and dedication to advancing electric motor technology.
ECM recently showcased its cutting-edge technology at the SPS trade show in Nuremberg, Germany, further solidifying its reputation as an industry disrupter. Looking ahead, ECM is set to participate in CES 2025 in January, where the company will continue to demonstrate the transformative potential of its PrintStator technology to a global audience.
