Permanent magnet generators | The Switch
Medium-speed permanent magnet generators. PMG up to 10 MW, 100–600 rpm. Our medium-speed PMGs operate with a single- or two-stage gearbox. Combining the advantages of low- and high-speed technology, these PMGs offer extremely high availability and reliability, resulting in increased annual energy production. Ask us more.
Permanent Magnet Generators (PMGs), first introduced on a large scale to the wind industry in the early to mid-2000s, are expected to continue to increase market share from 17% in 2011 to nearly 40% by 2015. PMGs have a growing group of supporters because of the flexibility, improved reliability, and increased efficiency that they bring to

Applications of magnets in wind turbines
A permanent magnet synchronous generator is an alternate type of wind-turbine generator. Unlike induction generators, these generators use the magnetic field of strong rare-earth magnets instead of electromagnets. They do not require slip rings or an external power source to create a magnetic field.
Performances comparison of axial-flux permanent-magnet
The use of wind energy as an alternative source of energy to generate the electricity is increasing worldwide. The application of an axial flux permanent magnet generator for small-scale wind turbine nowadays is increasing due to innovation, new material discoveries and completion in the manufacturing technology.
The Switch | Permanent magnet generators for Wind
We challenged the wind industry by making permanent magnet generators (PMGs) and full-power converters the preferred technology for wind turbines. Now, nearly all new large-power wind turbine designs have permanent magnet and full-power converter drive trains. Today, we optimize and tailor-make medium-speed PMGs especially for selected
Permanent magnet generators
Permanent magnet generators are synchronous machines with rotor windings replaced by permanent magnets. They need no separate excitation so rotor excitation losses – about 30% of total conventional generator losses – are eliminated. In a direct drive application the turbine and the generator are integrated to form a compact and
