Transverse flux machines (TFMs) represent a significant evolution in electric machine design, notable for their unique magnetic flux orientation that is perpendicular to the rotor axis. This ...

Variable flux permanent magnet machines represent a dynamic class of electrical machines in which the air-gap magnetic flux can be actively adjusted during operation. This flexibility permits improved ...

Laser cutters are in a fun place right now. Gone are the days when the cheapest machines were tens of thousands of dollars, and when the “compact” models were roughly the size of a freezer. They’ve ...

Earlier this month we looked at the Flying Whales airship, a hugely ambitious project if ever there was one. A small but critical piece of that floating puzzle, the Evolito axial flux motor – or all ...

Tesla was first to patent a primitive axial-flux electric motor—Nikola Tesla, that is, way back in 1889. It would be 126 years before the concept found its way to a car, the 1,500-horsepower (1,103 ...

Axial flux motors like this Yasa P400 series can be integrated with combustion engines for hybrids or used alone for EVs. It was used to power the Jaguar C-X75 concept and the Koenigsegg Regera. More ...

SCIENTISTS have built a real-life Flux Capacitor straight out of Back to the Future, but time travel enthusiasts hoping to jump back and forth through time in stylish DeLoreans might be disappointed.
