The Switch

Permanent magnet machines

The Switch designs and manufactures tailor-made permanent magnet (PM) machines for a range of motor and generator applications. High motor torque, which can be smoothly controlled, is guaranteed throughout the drive speed range – even at the lowest speeds. Power range extends to multi-megawatt class and speed range to 2000 rpm. The integrated design of The Switch PM machines has been carefully developed for both efficiency and adaptability in different applications.
