Air suspension systems, on the other hand, can fine-adjust the car’s height with pneumatic pressure. This feature not only improves the car’s passenger comfort, it also improves the car’s driving performance based on running circumstances as well. For example, air suspension systems lower the car’s height during high-speed running to reduce air resistance, while increasing the car’s height during off-road running to enhance its ground-covering performance.  Main features:  1. It’s compact: With the ultimate-level torque, the motor is compact enough to be installed in a limited space. The strong magnetic structure guarantees this compact and efficient motor’s excellent performance.  2. It’s long-life: The brushless design of this motor makes it a durable product. With the use of electronic commutation, this motor better reduces risks of defacement of commutators and mechanical trouble, and secures a longer life, than its brushed counterparts.  3. It starts and responds quickly: The use of electronic commutation enables the motor to start and drive the compressor quickly, and to secure less start-up friction and better power-up responsiveness than its brushed counterparts.  As the world’s leading comprehensive motor manufacturer, Nidec stays committed to utilizing its technologies to make light, thin, short, and small products, technologies to improve efficiency, and technologies to secure high-level control, to propose revolutionary solutions that contribute to the evolution of automobiles.  Nidec Motor (Dalian) Limited:  Nidec Corporation’s first company to be established in mainland China in 1992, Nidec Motor (Dalian) Limited develops, produces, and sells automotive brakes, drivetrain units, steering systems, and other motors for the car’s main functions, as well as motors to improve passenger comfort (air suspension, sunroof, seat adjustment, column adjustor, and other applications). With its R&D and production technologies inter-integrated, Nidec Motor (Dalian)’s departments engage in simultaneous business activities to send out “easy-to-produce, high-quality” products into the world.

This small UH enables a better accessibility between the tool-and the workpiece, as well as finished-surface quality and high-efficiency machining under ideal machining conditions, and its “light, thin, short, and small” features contribute greatly to mold and other products’ manufacturing processes. This UH’s sale is going to start at the Company’s “Large Machine Preview Show” to be held in Ritto, Shiga Prefecture, on Friday, February 02.  While made compact to improve its tool-workpiece accessibility and motion range, this new UH has an inclined axis with an extended tool-holding projection, enabling a better accessibility with a workpiece and the use of short and small tools. Additionally, even in machining processes that require long tools, this UH’s stiffer main spindle makes possible a variety of machining, from rough to finish machining. Also, with the UH able to approach up to 220mm (8.6”) to the wall, thanks to an improved swing span and interference range, the interference area with a workpiece has become smaller, and it can perform the precision machining on small and thin works and deep corners.  To secure better efficiency, this UH has a spindle speed of 20-6,000min-1, a spindle motor output of 15kW/420min-1, and a spindle maximum torque of 341N·m, while enjoying shorter non-machining time based on faster indexing time of each axis, shorter machining time due to stiffer attachments, and other features to improve productivity. Furthermore, the UH, which can perform indexing per angular 1 degree even during high output, has a high degree of freedom in machining, and can capable of handling a wide range of works, from cast heavy duty cutting to high-precision mold finish machining.  This UH can be installed into the Company’s double column type milling machining with five-face machining capability, i.e., MVR·Ax and MVR·Hx. The machines already delivered to the customers are also capable to install the attachment with additional construction.

Nidec’s Motor for Battery-assisted Bicycles is Adopted for Use in Taiyo Yuden’s Regenerative System that Keeps Them Running for 1,000km per Charge
  Nidec Corporation (TSE: 6594; OTC US: NJDCY) (“Nidec” or the “Company”) today announced that a motor that it developed for regenerative system-based battery-assisted bicycles has been adopted for use in FEREMO™, the regenerative power assistance system*1 that Taiyo Yuden Co., Ltd. (“Taiyo Yuden”) produced keeps a bicycle running for up to 1,000km on a single charge*2  FEREMO™, the regenerative power-assisted system that Taiyo Yuden developed, uses its power-assisting motor as a generator when the person on a bicycle puts on the brake or has his/her feet off the pedals, to collect and reuse motion energy.  This feature enables FEREMO™ to enjoy a significantly longer per-charge running distance, or up to 1,000km, than conventional power-assisting systems. In addition, with speed suppressed while the regenerative system is on, one can ride a bicycle safely even on a downhill.  Nidec’s power-assisted bicycle motor installed in FEREMO™ was designed exclusively for the system. While conventional power-assisting systems merely engage in powered operation (i.e., driving a motor with battery-generated electricity), this new motor operates as a generator when a bicycle decelerates, engaging in regeneration (i.e., rotating a motor with external power to generate electricity). In comparison with the Company’s other existing motors, this latest model boasts 30% more regenerative electric power, which is an industry-leading power generation efficiency, to help FEREMO™ achieve the 1,000km travelling distance. Furthermore, unlike assistance-only motors, load is constantly on the motor, making it more durable, low-noise, and radiation-efficient than conventional models.  As the world’s leading comprehensive motor manufacturer, Nidec stays committed to developing products with its technologies to make light, thin, short, and small products, as well as productivity enhancement and control technologies; and to proposing, at an overwhelming speed, revolutionary solutions that contribute to the lives of people around the world.  *1: FEREMO™  are Taiyo Yuden Co., Ltd.’s registered trademark or trademark for use in Japan  *2.
