The Front Cover

Combining a permanent magnet (PM) generator with a power converter in a wind power drive train is simple, but nobody integrates them into a totally optimised package as The Switch does. The Switch permanent magnet generators are manufactured for various speeds and powers: (a) a 1MW 1,500 rpm generator; (b) a 3.8MW 17rpm generator. On page 7 you will find the whole article about their Wind Power Drive Train Package
