The HPDM-180 is a high performance integrated motor drive with a continuous power output of 180 kW in a 16 kg package. It features an integrated planetary gearbox, reducing shaft speed to 3,000 RPM—ideal for propeller applications. The HPDM-180 can be used as a motor or generator.
Delivers >40% improvement over conventional windings in terms of maximum continuous current density due to high fill factor (>70%), high thermal conductivity (> 5 W/m-K bulk), and high temperature capability (265 °C for 20,000 hours)
State-of-the-art discrete SiC devices enable an ultra-high-density inverter, featuring high switching speeds, advanced common-mode filtering, and an in-house developed self-sensing rotor position algorithm for exceptional performance and efficiency.
Simultaneous cooling of the power electronics and stator with a single additively manufactured cooling jacket, enabling seamless integration of the motor and inverter.
A compact 6.7:1 single-stage planetary gearbox, designed for high efficiency and durability, reduces the 20,000 RPM motor speed to 3,000 RPM at the output shaft.
