SYSTEMS AND COMPONENTS
- PMSG 100 wheel hub motors with gears
Electric drive solution with powerful motors
Environmental awareness and ecology have very strong roots in South Tyrol. It is therefore no coincidence that Samatec, the agricultural machinery manufacturer based in Prad in Venosta Valley, is well known for its machines with electric drives. Among these is the EVO4 lifting platform, which operates for more than 600 hours a year in the tramlines of orchards, getting up to four agricultural workers to the right working height for the apple harvest.
Designed for steep terrain, the EVO4 has to be able to cope with inclines and descent of up to 45°. This requires a drive solution with powerful motors and a high gear reduction.
The core of the EVO4 lift drive system is the PMSG 100 wheel hub motors with gears and controllers from HEINZMANN, which is mounted on each wheel hub of the vehicle. With their small size and flat design, the disc-type motors are ideal for the axially confined installation space on the wheel hubs. High power and efficiency ultimately make the servo motors a totally efficient drive solution.
