Orbis Electric, a leading manufacturer and designer for commercial e-Mobility needs, has introduced a patented axial flux motor-generator - HaloDrive. HaloDrive is an unmatched combination of efficiency with industry-transforming pricing, performance, and configurability. This technology utilizes a breakthrough modular tunable permanent magnet machine architecture to deliver a motor that is slimmer, lighter, lower-cost, and 2x more powerful than existing electric motors and generators.
HaloDrive is uniquely configurable for BEV/PHEV passenger vehicles & commercial fleets, and provides more efficient power to marine systems, aerospace platforms, and stationary industrial applications. The HaloDrive Axial Flux Motor is energy-efficient, using regenerative braking, low-toxicity batteries, as well as alternative materials that can be sourced locally in the U.S.
Advantages of HaloDrive
- Industry-Leading Efficiency: Up to 97% operational efficiency, HaloDrive significantly reduces global electricity waste.
- Superior Torque Density and Power: Matching the torque of a V8 engine instantaneously, it delivers torque density of 100 Nm/kg, outperforming conventional radial and axial flux designs.
- Modular Versatility: Compact, configurable architecture supports multiple drivetrain positions (P2, P3, P4, P5), facilitating seamless integration and rapid scaling across various applications and form factors – without requiring structural modifications.
- Cost Advantage: Provides up to 35% lower drivetrain costs compared to radial flux motors.
Configurations
HaloDrive has two product configurations: HaloDrive In-Wheel Motor and NetZEROeTRU.
HaloDrive In-Wheel Motor: OE HaloDrive Modular Tunable Axial Flux Motors configured for in-wheel drive applications are a revolutionary advancement in motor vehicle lightweighting and drivetrain simplicity. Incorporating a highly advanced, ultra-light disc brake, a range of optional gear ratios to produce unrivaled torque per kilogram, and usage of cartridge-type wheel bearings drawn from OEM specifications, no other in-wheel motor compares.
NetZEROeTRU: NetZERO is redefining cold chain logistics with a revolutionary zero-emission solution that eliminates the need for diesel-powered refrigeration. Their cost-effective, high-performance axial flux generator makes plug-free operation a reality—delivering sustainable, on-the-go power without sacrificing performance.
