MagnaDrive’s revolutionary disconnected torque-transfer technology reduces your total cost of ownership by lowering maintenance and operating costs, increasing process availability, and improving system reliability. This technology is demonstrating substantially reduced energy requirements associated with the operation of a vast base of motors that drive pumps, fans, blowers and other processing and manufacturing equipment used in industry. MagnaDrive developed two product lines that offer industry the benefits associated with a "disconnected connection." The MagnaDrive Adjustable Speed Drive (ASD) is designed for variable speed applications while the MagnaDrive Coupling line is designed for constant torque applications.
Founded in 1999, MagnaDrive has focused its sales effort on penetrating select industries in the North American market. The company’s technology has one of the fastest adoption rates for a new introduction in its targeted industries with nearly 5,000 installations currently operating. MagnaDrive’s rapid market penetration was recognized in each of the last two years by its listing as one of the fastest growing companies by two publications. Inc. magazine named MagnaDrive one of the 500 fastest growing private companies in the United States and Deloitte & Touche’s Technology Fast 500 named MagnaDrive one of the 500 fastest growing technology companies (both private and public) in North America.
The benefits of MagnaDrive’s technology are evidenced by the company’s close relationship with the US government. Early funding for MagnaDrive was supplied by a grant from the US Department of Energy (DOE). Also, DOE testing demonstrated that MagnaDrive’s products reduce energy usage by up to 70%. The DOE operates several MagnaDrive units in mission critical applications at nuclear facilities. The US Navy and US Air Force also utilize MagnaDrive technology. The Navy operates well over 1,000 units across ten different ship classes in its fleet.
MagnaDrive has invested over $30 million developing its technology. The company’s intellectual property is protected by 20 domestic and more than 200 international patents. MagnaDrive is duplicating the proven success achieved in North America to other parts of the world. This global expansion will allow the company to continue its rapid growth.
