Industries & Applications

Industries and applications for electric spezial drives

ATE develops and manufactures customized drive solutions for machines, plants, and systems where standard motors are not a suitable technical fit. ATE comes into play whenever specific requirements arise regarding rotational speed, available space, cooling, power density, or integration.

When the drive needs to be engineered for the application, not simply selected.

When ATE Adds Value

High Rotational Speeds

When speed, running accuracy and thermal behavior need to be precisely coordinated.

High Power Density

When high power is required within limited installation space.

Thermal Requirements

When load profile, heat generation and cooling need to be considered during the design stage.

Dynamic Requirements

When torque, speed and load changes need to be matched to the operating cycle.

Mechanical Integration

When the drive must fit a defined machine geometry and meet existing interface requirements.

System Integration

When the motor, inverter, cooling system and control system need to work together reliably.
