In the current landscape of the energy transition and the growing electrification of transport, electric mobility is taking on a strategic role for the automotive and special vehicle industry. In this continually evolving context, Nicolini & C. We propose ourselves as a partner for the design and supply of asynchronous motors intended for auxiliary applications, contributing expertise, flexibility and engineering competence to the development of the new generation of electric vehicles.
In the world of electric vehicles (EVs), in addition to the traction motors, there are indeed numerous auxiliary systems that ensure the efficient and safe operation of the vehicle: thermal management (HVAC), pumps, compressors, actuators, fans, and other components fundamental to the overall functionality of the vehicle.
Although not directly involved in traction, these subsystems have a significant impact on Vehicle performance, autonomy, and safety. For this reason, the engines that operate them must guarantee reliability, durability, customisation options, and compliance with industry regulations.
It is precisely in this area that Nicolini & C.'s experience comes into play.
Thanks to over forty years of experience in design and production Electric motors to specification, The company has developed a range of high-performance asynchronous motors designed for the needs of auxiliary applications in the e-mobility sector.
Asynchronous motors represent a well-established technological solution, appreciated for their robust construction and operational reliability. Compared to other technologies, they offer significant advantages in terms of:
simplicity of construction, resistance to overloads, and ease of thermal management, characteristics that make them particularly suitable for demanding operating conditions
Cost-effectiveness and production stability, thanks to the absence of permanent magnets and greater predictability in the materials supply chain
Technical customisation: each application has its own engine
One of the distinctive elements of the Nicolini & C. approach is the ability to develop Bespoke solutions for the specific needs of builders.
Thanks to the in-house laboratory and the experience gained on numerous industrial projects, the company supports OEM customers in co-design of the most suitable engine, contributing to reduced validation times and optimised overall system performance.
Work with the client is not limited to supplying the component, but extends to the entire project development cycle, through activities such as:
Feasibility analysis, custom solution development, and laboratory testing, with dedicated environmental evidence and technical checks
validation support, technical documentation and quality management, with component traceability and support during the integration phases
Normative and reference standards
In the automotive and electric vehicle sector, compliance with international standards is a fundamental requirement.
Nicolini & C. asynchronous motors are designed to comply with the main regulations and specifications required by vehicle manufacturers, including:
EU Directives, RoHS and REACH, in addition to the ISO/IEC regulations concerning electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility
Typical automotive industry requirements and procedures, such as PPAP, FMEA and IMDS, when required by customers
A technology partner for e-mobility
Electric mobility requires far more than just an engine: it demands engineering expertise, integration capabilities, and long-term reliability.
With his Asynchronous motors designed for auxiliary applications in electric vehicles, Nicolini & C. positions itself as a strategic partner for OEMs, integrators, and electric vehicle manufacturers looking not just for a supplier, but for a technical point of contact capable of supporting them in the development of the most suitable solutions for their applications.
