Aircore Mobility
A motor for the next generation, and the next
The Infinitum Aircore Mobility is an air core, axial flux permanent magnet (PM) motor created for applications that drive, fly or sail. Using lightweight, reusable materials and modular design, Infinitum’s motor generates higher power density in half the weight and size, at a fraction of the carbon footprint and noise of traditional motors. With no iron and less copper, the motor can sustainably power passenger and commercial electric vehicles, as well as aerospace, marine, construction, and agricultural machines.
