Company Background

Magnomatics specialises in the development of revolutionary contactless, lubricant-free magnetic transmissions and ultra-high-torque electrical motors and generators.  These energy efficient products offer dramatic new engineering possibilities for a range of applications including hybrid vehicles, trains, marine propulsion systems, wind and marine turbines and many industrial applications where high reliability, low maintenance, compactness and high efficiency are paramount.

For the non-technical

Gear boxes in motor engines use grooves to enable them to turn the motors energy into drive. Our magnetic gearboxes use magnets instead of grooves so they don’t need lubrication, are lighter, more efficient and can’t be ‘stripped’ through over use.
