Dynamic E flow – or DEF – is known as leading competence centre for cooling technology of electric motors with its patented hollow wire cooling technology capcooltech® as well as Engineering and Prototyping for small series and industrialization. As DEF holds the whole development process in their own hands, they are experts in their field and stay independent from suppliers. This gives them the chance to be truly customer-focused. Although DEF develops also other electric machines apart from test bench motors, like for usage in Automotive, Railway, Aerospace and Off-Highway Machines, today we’re having a close look at the section of test bench motors.

Emil Motors is working on the next generation of electric motors. Totally free of rare earth material and free of geopolitical risk. Our axial flux induction technology enables high torque and power density combined with high efficiency, without using any magnets.

We have a unique and patented motor design, aimed at cost effective mass production, making our motors suitable for automotive and off highway use.
Our design does not require any brushes, specialized electronics or expensive materials.
We aim to bring axial flux to the masses, in stark contrast to the niche high cost applications of axial flux today.

Rethinking bearing monitoring – plain and roller bearings
We enable our customers to build “even better” – more efficient and reliable – gearboxes, drive trains and motors and to operate them optimally

Lubrication monitoring. Force measurement. Damage detection.

We transform your standard bearings into sensors for lubrication, load and condition. With our innovative technology, we do not require any additional – and therefore vulnerable – measurement technology or any redesign. We work closely with you during the integration process. You provide the expertise on your application and we – the technology. Together we develop constructive solutions and offer you exactly the specific information you need.
