MagnaDrive Corporation is a company in the industrial machinery manufacturing sector that develops and commercializes a torque-transfer system using magnet-based components. The technology places magnet discs on the load shaft and a conductor assembly on the motor shaft, creating torque transfer across an air gap and allowing speed to be controlled by adjusting the air gap. The approach aims to reduce maintenance, operating costs, and energy usage for motors driving pumps, fans, blowers, and related equipment, with the potential for lower total cost of ownership and improved system reliability. The firm markets two product lines to address different operating regimes: one for variable-speed applications and another for constant-torque applications. MagnaDrive was founded in 1999 and is based in Bellevue, Washington, with a portfolio of patents protecting its technology. The company has established relationships with government and defense entities, including usage by U.S. government agencies and demonstration testing by the Department of Energy.
