ABB's Traction Motors with welded stator frame cover the whole range of freight, passenger and multi-purpose locomotives. Every motor is tailored according to specification with regard to e.g. suspension, bearing, gearbox and lubrication solutions.
Key features:
Freight locomotives: Speed up to 160km/h allowing cost-effective axle-hung mounting of the motors
Freight locomotives: High torque-space ratio
Freight locomotives: Welded stator frame to optimize the tight space envelope
Passenger and multi-purpose locomotives: Coupling between motor and gearbox allowing the locomotive to operate at high speed
Passenger and multi-purpose locomotives: Lower mechanical stress allowing motor to be lightweight
