A cleantech startup developing sustainable motor technology, C-Motive Tcehnologies is organized around re-inventing the electric motor, Sstructured around developent of next generation technology, including a radically lightweight, high torque motor called the C-Machine, the overall mission of C-Motive is to design and commercialize components for use inside electric motors and generators - which increase the overall efficiencies of the equipment in which these machines are used. The firm's principals are using their patented Capacitive Technology Platform™ to develop two products: an electrostatic motor and a non-contact power transfer device. The advantages of these products include reduced size and weight; minimal maintenance; inexpensive, recyclable aluminum; no copper windings; electrical steel laminations or heavy magnets; no rare earth materials; and increased energy efficiency. C-Motive is actively seeking business partners to test its Capacitive Technology Platform™ across a wide spectrum of industries, including but not limited to large wind turbines, power generators, hydraulics, marine propulsion, servo actuators, HVAC, industrial automation, and hybrid electric vehicles. C-Motive's mission is to create electric machines that directly lead to reduced carbon emissions through higher efficiency renewable generators applicable to the next generation of e-mobility vehicles and more efficient industrial torque motors. The firm's unmatched torque, efficiency, and simplicity will lead to a new generation of applications that create more renewable power and waste less electricity Running on the principle of electrostatic forces - aka "static cling,"? - motors produce torque by the same principle of rubbing a balloon on a head of hair. Just like hair doesn't heat up with the balloon, thfe irm's motors produce torque with nearly zero loss, versus using copper coils wound around steel with rare earth permanent magnets.
