Tender: Non-Torque Loading System (20–50+ kW) for Electrical Machine Testing – University of Edinburgh

About

The University of Edinburgh is seeking a supplier for a Non-Torque Loading System to test electrical machines, with a minimum power rating of 20 kW and preference for systems up to 50 kW or above. The system must be able to apply non-torque loads to a motor/generator shaft or rotor of at least 50 kN in at least two axes (preference for three axes), and provide a speed range of at least 20–100 rpm with a preferred range of 10–1000 rpm. There is a preference for electrically actuated non-torque loading. The equipment will support researchers who design, develop and test small electrical machines at full scale and downscaled prototypes for large offshore renewable energy applications.
