DHX Electric Machines, Inc. is an independent, closely-held, startup company producing state-of-the-art, ultra-high torque density electric machines, incorporating the patented, proprietary micro-feature enhanced “Direct-winding Heat Exchange” DWHX™ cooling system developed in MayorLab at the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Tech. DHX has industry-standard electromagnetic design FEA tools (Maxwell 2D) and custom multi-disciplinary design codes for rapid product development cycles, empowering DHX to provide custom, application-tailored motors to its customers. Founded in 2014, DHX Electric Machines, Inc. was formed by Dr. J. Rhett Mayor, Dr. S. Andrew Semidey, and Su Mayor after the successful demonstration of the DWHX™ cooled 15kW ultra-high torque density electric motor, funded by the Georgia Research Alliance via Georgia Tech's VentureLab, that validated ten years worth of research in the areas of micromanufacturing, liquid cooling technologies, portable power generation and electro-mechanical design at MayorLab. DHX relocated in 2015 from the Georgia Tech campus to Braselton, GA, moving into a 20,000 sq.ft production facility. Equipped with CNC machining centers, winding production equipment, and assembly capabilities, DHX is transitioning from technology demonstrators to batch production of motors sized up to 300kW. The company is in the early growth stage with initial motor offerings being delivered into automotive, vertical traction, HVAC, power tools, and golf cart market segments.
