Turntide Technologies has announced the launch of Turntide Whitehaven, the sixth and most advanced high-performance version in its inverter portfolio to date.
Turntide Whitehaven has been developed to offer performance, flexibility and sustainability. Its applications span across e-mobility, including two-three wheelers, small vehicles and motorcycles, as well as material handling and any low-voltage electrification needs.
Driven by feedback from customers and a commitment to continuous improvement, Turntide Technologies has crafted Turntide Whitehaven to embody a significant increase in power density. This not only amplifies performance, but also minimizes spatial demands, granting adaptability across diverse applications. A cornerstone of Turntide Whitehaven's capabilities lies in its unmatched customization potential.
Turntide User Code empowers original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to seamlessly integrate their unique features directly onto the inverter platform. It also enables custom logical and algorithmic functions via ANSI C / FreeRTOS.
This capability grants OEMs the freedom to innovate, enabling the realization of bespoke functionalities greater than previously available.
Additionally, Turntide Whitehaven boasts an extensive motor library for simplified integration, ensuring market-leading performance, small footprint and customization capability, all backed by an IP67 rating for durability and resilience in the most demanding environments.
Turntide Whitehaven features the latest motor control advancements for Permanent Magnet AC (PMAC) and Induction Motors (IM), maximizing efficiency while minimizing torque ripple.
With maximum torque per amp algorithms tailored for different rotor types, Whitehaven ensures optimal performance across various motor configurations. Its reliable operation in Field Weakening enables seamless transition to higher speeds when needed, with output frequencies up to 2kHz and maximum motor speeds up to 20kRPM.
Designed to accommodate a range of applications, Turntide Whitehaven supports AC Induction motors and offers voltage options from 48V to 80V nominal battery voltage.
Its advanced user programmability via a dedicated user microcontroller allows for fine-tuning of motor control parameters and vehicle dynamics. Furthermore, Turntide Whitehaven features physics-based vehicle control and setup functionalities, including motor speed limit/control, DC current limit, Hill-hold, anti-jerk, and active damping.
With secondary CAN bus for baud rate bridging (optional), fan PWM control, and speed tacho readback (or wheel speed sensor) capabilities, Whitehaven provides comprehensive features for seamless integration and superior performance.
Turntide Whitehaven will be unveiled to the market at Future Mobily Asia, ACT Expo 2024, and The Battery Show Europe.
