(EMAILWIRE.COM, May 24, 2012 ) Paris, France -- Established in 1987, Alxion has developed an excellent worldwide reputation for their expertise in designing and manufacturing precise & compact Torque motors that provide “Excellence in Direct Driving”.

The company now provides a product known as the range of industrial Wind Turbine Alternators (aka Wind Turbine Generator) known as STK Wind Turbine Alternators. The generators address the applications of small Wind Turbine generators in both low and medium power by providing the highest possible power-to-weight ratio in direct drive without the need for speed multipliers or gears.

“A key asset of our wind turbine alternators is that they do not require speed multipliers or gears, and are maintenance free. Our equipment uses a high torque motor, comes with an easy mechanical interface, are highly efficient, and work to achieve the highest power to weight ratio in direct drive,” said a company spokesperson.

The range of permanent magnet frameless alternators from Alxion come in 6 different sizes, ranging from 145 mm up to 800 mm. For each size, the generators are available in four different lengths and at two standard rated speeds.

The summary of the wind turbine generator specifications, as published on the Alxion website, are as follows:

* 200 W up to 95 kW rated power (this depends on the size and rated speeds)

* 80 RPM up to 1500 RPM rated speeds.

* Six diameter sizes, ranging from 145 mm up to 795 mm.

* 56 mm up to 630 mm for internal diameter sizes.

* A range of voltages available, up to 500 Vac.
