The Enedym team has developed a disruptive way to design electric motors at a fraction of the time and cost of existing methods. In a switched reluctance motor, torque is produced by the magnetic attraction of a steel rotor to stator electromagnets; there are no permanent magnets, and the rotor carries no windings.
