Case Study: Lund University accelerates BLDC motor prototyping with EMWorks EMS

Lund University - Customer Case Study

The academic project team at Lund University required a sophisticated tool to analyze the magnetic fields for a prototype axial flux BLDC motor they were developing for their Formula Student team. Their challenge was to efficiently understand the motor's complex electromagnetic performance within the constraints of their project timeline. To achieve this, they utilized EMS from EMWorks, which is integrated within SOLIDWORKS.

The EMWorks solution provided an exceptionally user-friendly and efficient platform that was seamlessly integrated into their existing SOLIDWORKS design environment. This integration allowed the team to quickly iterate on design revisions and run simulations without switching software, which significantly streamlined their workflow. Although time constraints limited a full exploration of the software's capabilities, the team was highly satisfied with the results. The insights gained from using EMWorks were invaluable, playing a pivotal role in the project's success and equipping the team with significant new knowledge for future research and development efforts.
