Purpose and goal

Infrasonik has developed new cooling method based on the company´s platform technology high-intensity infrasound generation. The purpose of the project is to establish a collaboration with Solaronics. They work with drying and cooling solutions for Silicon steel, critical components in electric motors and transformers. The goal is to do a feasibility study and adapt the technology for the electrical steel segment, produce drawings so that in the next step they can build a pilot plant with one of their Chinese customers, as well as set up frameworks for a commercial collaboration.

Expected effects and result

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The result is a packaging of the infrasound cooling technology towards a new market segment, electric steel, as well as a commercial collaboration.

Planned approach and implementation

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The project will be implemented in three stages. First, a technical and commercial feasibility study must be done. Afterwards, certain critical technical aspects must be tested in existing prototypes and the technology must be demonstrated to the licensee. In the last step, concept drawings must be produced which will be the basis that Solaronics, the licensee, will use as a basis when they build a pilot plant.
