IE6 hyper-efficiency motors are ready to roll

Robert Chin, Global R&D Manager IEC LV Motors at ABB, explains that while IE5 is regarded as the current state-of-the-art in energy efficiency, motors that meet the anticipated IE6 “hyper-efficiency” level are already commercially available in the form of synchronous reluctance (SynRM) technology. They offer a simple, cost-effective and magnet-free solution for the majority of applications.
