Electrolock has been supplying some of the highest quality mica insulation tapes to some of the largest OEMs for decades. These relationships stem from the large knowledge base available from our engineers to the president of our company. We strive for excellence at every turn and work directly with our customers to ensure our products...Read More
Polyshrink PVF So much of what goes into the end result of a product stems from what happens during production. Testing, validating, and perfecting a process over time is something our engineers take with a hands-on approach. This is evident with our PVF shrink films, a tailored approach to high performance sacrifice and release films...Read More
Have you ever bought a suit off the rack and had it fit perfectly? We didn’t think so. For a perfect fit, you’d go to a tailor to custom design your suit. Electrolock is the custom designer of spiral wound tubing. Electrolock understands that your company’s needs are unique. Our approach begins by defining your...Read More
There seems to be an endless array of electric motor topologies, architectures, and configurations. Among the many design choices that engineers face is the shape of copper wire that is wound in the stator. In a new paper published in the IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, researchers compared using flat wire hairpin winding and stranded...Read More
Want more power from that motor? Try redesigning your slot liner. Optimizing slot liner design can help create the most power from your hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) or electric vehicle (EV). One of the biggest challenges for the HEV/EV manufacturers is how to achieve more horsepower from the same size motor. How do you optimize...Read More
Electric generators contain a rotating rotor that induces an electric field into the stator winding to produce electric current. Electrolock’s rotor insulation is used to insulate copper turns in these rotor windings, providing a dielectric barrier between copper bars that carry current. Insulated copper bars are stacked into a metal slot through the length of...Read More
When there is a need for high temperature, fire resistant wire insulation that can provide circuit integrity in applications up to 500⁼C, at voltage levels up to 1000 volts, design engineers are looking for insulation materials that go beyond the traditional extruded rubber or plastics found in conventional cables.Read More
