High speed kept under control – with low system costs.
Thanks to BorgWarner’s multilevel technology, motor and generator speeds of up to 180,000 rpm can be kept safely under control. The control technology and the high PWM frequencies achieved lead to significant rotor losses in the electric machine, resulting in a significant reduction in system costs. MLI was developed for fuel cell air compressors and electric turbochargers.
BorgWarner’s MLI-technology makes the difference, because the high PWM frequency and the additional voltage level mean that lower pulsations of the magnetic field can be achieved, resulting in significantly lower rotor losses.
