Why did RIMAC choose Ewellix as a preferred supplier?

 
The RIMAC teams challenge was to create a machine capable of shaping stator coils for large AC motors (up to 3.5 m). This process required actuators capable of developing high powered density while maintaining accurate movement over several axes. ‘The products offered by Ewellix are much more compact and have considerably higher load capacity’ states Marco Cattaneo, Technical Sales Engineer.
 
Historically, these machines were equipped with hydraulic actuators: the only technology capable of providing the forces necessary. This technology has several disadvantages, mainly concerning the management and movement of hydraulic pipes in the machine, noise from the hydraulic unit and oil leaks.
 
‘By using electric actuators supplied by Ewellix, we simplified the assembly phase without the difficulties of hydraulic fluids and oil leaks during assembly. We were also able to eliminate the disruption caused by installing hydraulic pipes and reduce the area needed because of its compact size’.
Marco Cattaneo
Developing the new machine using Ewellix’s electric actuators, RIMAC adapted the mechanics to allow electric axes in place of hydraulic ones.
