Customised linear motor shipments commence to US

Manufacturer of customised linear motors and other special electric motors has begun shipping customised motors for use in automotive interior electric seating.

Harbin Electric, a developer and manufacturer of customised linear motors and other special electric motors, has announced that, subsequent to being selected as an approved supplier to a large diversified automotive OEM supplier based in North America, the company has begun shipping customised motors for use in interior electric seating.

The company is the sole supplier for this program and will deliver the motor units monthly based on a rolling blanket purchase order.

Tianfu Yang, chairman and chief executive officer of Harbin Electric stated, ''It is a great company milestone to begin shipping product to our newest international customer.

After months of on-site evaluations, custom design and testing, we recently announced that we had successfully passed all the necessary requirements to establish this customer relationship.

We are excited to be a key supplier of such an exclusive and innovative product.'' Yang continued: ''Many automobile manufacturers and suppliers are developing innovative enhancements to further improve their new car models.

One unique and growing improvement is adding an electric motor powered version of items that traditionally required manual operations, such as electric sliding doors or electric folding interior seats." He added: ''The Harbin Electric built motor is part of a system that offers one-touch powered operation, which completely folds a seat in less than 15s.

The intelligent motorized power-folding seat also includes an obstacle-detection system that will stop the seat from folding in the event a person or object is in the way.

We will continue to leverage our design and manufacturing expertise to bring continued cost effective innovations to all industrialized motor markets that we serve.''.
