  • High Efficiency

    Designed with thin silicon steel sheets, high-permeability magnetic materials, and sinusoidal air-gap magnetic density optimization, our motors achieve peak efficiency exceeding 97%. More than 90% of the system operates within an efficiency range of ≥85%, significantly enhancing energy utilization.

  • Noise Reduction

    By incorporating advanced rotor segmentation and optimized auxiliary slot parameters, our motors effectively minimize operational noise. The no-load noise level across the full speed range remains below 72dB(A), providing a distinct competitive advantage in the industry.

  • Enhanced Thermal Management

    The dual-helix water-cooling design maximizes heat dissipation and system stability while maintaining optimal hydraulic resistance and pressure balance, ensuring long-term reliability under demanding conditions.

  • Advanced Environmental Protection

    The motor features a flange-mounted sealing structure that effectively prevents the ingress of mud, sand, and water. This enhances operational reliability, particularly in challenging environments.

  • Optimized Manufacturing and Insulation

    The junction box utilizes a stamped sheet-metal and vulcanized rubber construction process, improving production efficiency and reducing material costs. Additionally, the vulcanized rubber layer minimizes internal temperature fluctuations, enhancing resistance to condensation and extending service life.
