Find out how Opera helped engineering company Magnomatics

Opera’s innovative electromagnetic simulations sped up the commercialization of a breakthrough direct-drive technology for electric vehicles by Magnomatics – a company set up to develop new forms of magnetic power transmission. Magnomatics’ quest was to design a novel direct drive system that integrates a permanent magnet motor with non-contact magnetic gearing.
