Innovation is already in Axalta's DNA, "said Robert Roop, Chief Technology Officer of Axalta." We are proud to receive the Edison Gold Award for our industry-leading Voltatex 4224 product. This is the second consecutive year we have been awarded this honor, and it demonstrates our commitment to providing innovative solutions to customers worldwide

Voltatex 4224 not only improves the output efficiency of motors, but also reduces the size and weight of electronic devices, "said Rupp. By conducting thermal energy as quickly as possible, this product can significantly improve motor performance while maintaining temperature rise control at a low level, which is extremely important for high-performance motor applications such as electric vehicles, trains, and wind energy

High performance electrical equipment is dedicated to maximizing output power, which may result in operating temperatures up to 200 ℃. The Axalta Voltatex 4224 product can quickly redirect thermal energy from the inside of electrical equipment to the outside, effectively reducing temperature rise to 30 degrees Celsius. This product can also achieve a motor weight reduction of over 15%. Lowering the operating temperature of the motor can extend its service life and reduce its size to save materials, both of which can bring sustainable benefits to motor manufacturers.

 

Regarding the Edison Award:


The Edison Best New Product Award, founded in 1987, is a highly competitive award aimed at recognizing outstanding performance in global new product and service development, marketing, human centered design, and innovation. The winners represent products and services that bring revolutionary changes to the industry, leading excellence and innovation in the four dimensions of concept, value, delivery, and impact. The Materials Science and Engineering awards recognize the progress of materials and the expansion of material possibilities, including the control and processing of structures and properties through nanotechnology, chemistry, metallurgy, or formulation. With strict selection criteria, the most authoritative judging panel, and evaluation criteria that only focus on the product itself, the Edison Award has become one of the most highly regarded awards in the technology category. Apple founder Steve Jobs, Procter&Gamble founder and CEO Alan George Lafley, Tesla founder Elon Musk, and others have all received this award.
