In response to the changing needs of the industry, many different motor types are being explored. While each have

their advantages and disadvantages, it is particularly important for OEMs to assess which motor topology is right for

each application and how these motor types compare to each other.

This technical expert will explore the advantages and disadvantages of various motor types, designs and topologies,

how they compare to each other, and which motor type is best for each application:

Discuss newer motor types including ‘raxial flux’ e-motors and how they compare to older types

Compare cost and capabilities of in-wheel motors vs. inboard mounted motors; learn how a high-speed motor

compares to a low-speed motor with high torque

Evaluate which motors are the best for packaging

Discuss which motor type can replace the permanent magnet motor

Unpack the advantages of externally excited motors and the challenges, including issues with production due

to the increased winding in the rotor
