Schaeffler Enters E-motor Manufacturing Sector

Schaeffler has recently announced its intention to enter the segment of the electric motor production with its modular, sophisticated tech platform. The product range of e-motors from Schaeffler can find application in modules, dedicated hybrid transmissions as well as e-axle drives.

Created with performance capacity and reasonable pricing in mind, Schaeffler’s solutions vary in voltage from 48 to 800V, with possible power capacities from 15 to more than 300kW. High-volume manufacturing for businesses of Shaeffler customers worldwide is scheduled to be launched in 2021.

To reach this stage of development in this area Shaeffler had to take over Elmotec Statomat last year. Now the company has all required technical capacities to produce high-quality e-motors. Solid professional integrity in mechanical parts, manufacturing activities, and winding tech solutions as well as a thorough comprehension of all car elements ensure shorter lead times and more cohesive processes for providing advanced e-motors. Schaeffler plans to use its well-developed technical capacity all over the world to establish and operate the production cycles. Schaeffler will showcase its e-motors built in-house and 100% ready for a high-volume production as full systems at the IAA.

Thanks to obtaining expertise in the designing and constructing e-motors, the company not only expands its product line, but also makes another step forward in implementation of its E-Mobility strategy. Now users of Schaeffler solutions have a professional and reliable supplier of the top-quality e-motors constructed on the basis of their requirements and mobility needs.
