BEMAC E-Trikes
BEMAC Electric Transportation Philippines, Inc., is
an electric vehicle manufacturer that utilizes Japanese technology at its core.
While its electric tricycles (e-trikes) are proudly made in the Philippines, it
heavily utilizes EV technology developed by its Japanese parent company,
Uzushio Electric Co., Ltd.
BEMAC Philippines’ smartly-developed VCU ensures that the e-tricycle performs
optimally and efficiently, bringing out the best that the vehicle has to offer.
Maintenance on the vehicle is also made easy by the VCU with its ability to
self-diagnose any issues in the vehicle for a worry-free experience for drivers
and operators.
On the other side of the 68VM e-tricycle’s smart
technology is its Battery Management System or BMS. The BMS ensures that the
batteries not only operate efficiently, but also provide them with greater
longevity.
While the 68VM e-tricycle’s brains are definitely
impressive, the tricycle itself can also flex a lot of muscles. It packs an
AC-type 3 phase, 4-pole induction motor. The controller's input voltage is 48
volts and the motor and the controller work together producing an output of 5
kilowatts. This translates to the tricycle’s ability to carry up to 7 people (6
passengers plus a driver), without difficulty.
It can also push the tricycle
through a 16-degree incline – greater than the national standard for road
slopes. The motor is also designed with a compact size and operates with very
little noise, keeping it unobtrusive when passing through crowded areas. These
motors are guaranteed to have a long lifespan, and a maintenance-free
operation. Paired with the VCU, the motor outputs an excellent dynamic response
and very precise control, allowing the vehicle to fine acceleration and
movement, eliminating sudden jolts for the passengers in stop-and-go traffic.
For its power, the 68VM e-tricycle uses 4.4 kWh – a
high capacity to complement its motor. The batteries have the capability to
accommodate rapid charging and are produced in a state-of-the-art production
line in Japan that have undergone rigorous standards.
