Railway Vehicles
RETORQ Motors designs and manufactures highly efficient off-the-shelf and bespoke RETORQ electric generators ideally suited for railway vehicles and Light-Rail Vehicles.
The RETORQ on-board electric generators were developed for the on-board power supply of railway vehicles. The compact slim line “pancake” style packaging of the RETORQ electric generators is well suited for the system integration into the existing railway vehicle and light-rail vehicle platforms. RETORQ electric power generators have the following key advantages for the railway vehicle application:
- Variable speed RETORQ power generators have a wide speed range to meet efficient electric power generation of varying demand on-board railway vehicles
- Liquid cooled or air cooled RETORQ electric power generators for on-board generation of railway vehicles enable flexible system integration for most demanding railway vehicle and light-rail vehicle applications
- Variable speed RETORQ power generators are capable of rated power from tens of kilowatts up to hundreds of kilowatts output electric power
- Highly efficient RETORQ on-board electric motors are developed for the demanding heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) railway vehicle applications
- Cost-effective RETORQ motors-generators are ideally suited for the railway vehicle and light-rail vehicle battery charging applications
