Issue 03 | 2018       Dear readers, The renaissance of the reluctance motor is picking up speed. The development of a reluctance motor meeting the requirements for efficiency class IE5 – as presented at SPS 2018 – is VEM’s latest contribution to the advance. The road which lies ahead for the whole VEM Group is outlined in an editorial written by our managing director, Dr. Torsten Kuntze. The trends and prospects which are occupying the European drive manufacturers are then summarised in our round-up from the 1st CEMEP Technical Conference. And a preview of the coming year lists the international trade fairs on VEM’s 2019 calendar and reveals when the 17th VEM Technical Conference will be taking place. Enjoy the read! We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
