Schaeffler at Agritechnica 2025 (Hall 15, Booth 15E13) Highly efficient electric motors for traction drives and auxiliary units in agriculture
2025-10-29 | Schweinfurt
- Modular 800 V electric motor series as traction drive and generator suitable for many types of vehicles and applications
- Cost-effective motor production with automated coil manufacturing
- Innovative wave winding technology ensures high power density
With an extensive product portfolio, the motion technology company Schaeffler is presenting itself at Agritechnica 2025 as a future-oriented systems supplier for agricultural machinery. Schaeffler’s heavy-duty electric motor platform was designed for a wide application spectrum of vehicles. Schaeffler’s electric motors can be used not only as fully electric traction drives, but also as generators in hybrid drives or even as a drive for an electric PTO. Schaeffler has end-to-end expertise in the production of technically demanding electric drives including controllers and power electronics.
Modular platform
The 800 V heavy-duty platform consists of three oil-cooled motors, each developing 112 kW, 207 kW, and 220 kW continuous output. The only difference is the length of the active parts while the A- and B-sides of the motors are each identical. Schaeffler adopts the innovative ‘wave winding technology’ for the winding of the stator. This flat-wire wave winding makes for a very high copper filling ratio in the motor and results in a high-power density. This particular characteristic gives rise to a very compact motor that is optimized for continuous output.
Through the integration of Vitesco Technologies as a provider of controllers and software, Schaeffler now has extensive, end-to-end expertise in the manufacture of technically complicated electric drives. All manufacturing technologies come from a single source.
Superlative efficiency in minimal space
Due to their design, the heavy-duty electric motors achieve maximum efficiency of over 97 percent in a speed range from 3,000 to 8,000 rpm. With an overall length of 151, 206, and 261 mm with a uniform outside diameter of around 239 mm (laminated core diameter) or 280 mm (including screw connection), the motors take up minimal space.
At Agritechnica in Hanover, Schaeffler will be demonstrating a complete electric axle with integrated heavy-duty electric motor.
