MotorBox LCM: The software for the optimal drive system

MotorBox is a libary of SyMSpace. With the software, LCM offers a tool for the design and optimization of electrical machines .

In modern drive systems, there are a variety of parameters, from geometrical and material parameters to electrical variables for optimum control. MotorBox combined with SyMSpace offers the possibility to automate the optimization process and decouple it from the simulation software.

For this purpose, fixed and variable parameters are defined and freely selectable target variables such as, for example, high power, low weight, low price, high efficiency are prescribed. The selected optimization algorithm (for example, genetic optimization) creates parameter sets therefrom and automatically passes them on to the desired simulation software, evaluates the result, and creates the next parameter set.
