The ESKAM-Project Research and Development: BMBF-joint project ESKAM Electrically SKalable Axial Drive Module The Company Groschopp AG, in cooperation with six midsize-industrial companies and four research institutions, is developing an axial drive module for the application in electrically driven vehicles. The basic idea is to design and produce two highspeed motors, combined with a double-reducer gear and a suitable power electronics unit (to be developed), as an axial drive module. A lightweight-design is envisaged at the outset as a cost-effective and energy-efficient solution. The runtime for the project has been calculated as lasting three years. The project is Government-funded by the BMBF under the synonym ESKAM. GROSCHOPP® GROSCHOPP AG Drives & More Drives for your E-Mobility Contact us.

Innovative Drive-module for E-Mobility The complete drive-module for the front- and/or rear axle comprises two oil-cooled electric motors with reducer gear and electronics. The base of the structure is an innovative sub-frame. Seven notable midsize-industrial companies, in cooperation with one Fraunhofer-Institute and three Universities, have developed this drive-module. These newly developed electric motors do not depend on expensive permanent magnets and achieve a far better efficiency during the actual driving operation compared with traditional electric motors.
