TM4 A VISION REALIZED 30 years ago, a visionary group of researchers at Hydro-Quebec set out to transform the world s mobility landscape by literally reinventing the wheel. Their vision for a greener tomorrow would serve as the inspiration behind TM4. That same vision and determination has allowed TM4 to expand and flourish and today we are proud to be a driving force for sustainable electric mobility and renewable power generation solutions. OUR MISSION Our mission is to become a world leader in electric drivetrains for the automotive, commercial and advanced transportation industries. We are committed to developing close partnerships with clients, enabling them to minimize their time-to-market, and maximize ROI. We have made it our mission to ensure the seamless integration, cost-effective series production, and rapid deployment of our highly flexible products. UP TO ANY CHALLENGE. TM4 employs over 300 specialists worldwide and in each of them thrives a restless perfectionism and the passion to push technology to its limits, and beyond. Our unique combination of expertise and experience has merged to form a cross-functional team. So product development requirements with ever increasing market demands, strict deadlines, and costs constraints are welcomed as yet another opportunity to excel. All of this has empowered TM4 with the skills, creativity, ingenuity, and enthusiasm needed to conceive and deploy a growing family of scalable electric powertrain systems for the global transport industry in a variety of applications. TM4 s considerable proficiency, flexibility, and customer-oriented approach are unmatched in the industry. Our clients benefit from the constant communication, cooperation and exchange directly with our various experts. That makes us an ideal partner - one equipped with vision, and agility. TM4 is a driving force that gets the job done, fast.
TM4 s electric motor and inverter technologies are the result of more than 30 years of research and development that have led to the designs of some of the world s most advanced drivetrains. Quality and Innovation Global Network Flexible partner
POWERFUL BENEFITS INDUSTRY-LEADING EFFICENCY Brushless permanent-magnet technology ensures exceptional performance over a wide range of speeds. BEST-IN-CLASS POWER DENSITY Delivers more power with its excellent power-to-weight ratio, takes up less valuable space, and requires fewer raw materials to produce. ADHERENCE TO AUTOMOTIVE STANDARDS Full automotive-certified electronic components, assuring compliance with current industry best practices throughout the entire development cycle. EXCEPTIONAL EASE OF INTEGRATION Allows for a more rapid implementation and a significantly reduced time-to-market. VEHICLE COMPATIBILITY TM4 MOTIVE and TM4 SUMO powertrain series are both compatible with the TM4 NEURO vehicle controller, a unit easily adapted to many vehicle types. VEHICLE CONTROLS Vehicle behaviour can be fine-tuned by adjusting parameter configurations. CANADIAN HEADQUARTERS A 1,000 m 2 MANUFACTURING FACILITY.
