WePower is the process of creating an electrical current by moving an electrical conductor through a static magnetic field. WePower has engineered and patented innovative technology to perform this process using permanent magnets for field shaping and concentration to harvest energy at a significantly higher level than previous EHG solutions. A single motion, such as a push of a button or a flip of a switch, creates an electromagnetic current by moving a magnet through a copper coil.
Electromagnetic induction is the process of creating an electrical current by moving an electrical conductor through a static magnetic field. WePower has engineered and patented innovative technology to perform this process using permanent magnets for field shaping and concentration to harvest energy at a significantly higher level than previous EHG solutions. A single motion, such as a push of a button or a flip of a switch, creates an electromagnetic current by moving a magnet through a copper coil. WePower has designed a new energy harvesting circuit that pulls this energy from WePower EHGs and processes and stores the energy in the circuit’s capacitors. This energy is then used by sensors and transmitters to send long-range, high-
Gemns EHGs have been tested for up to 1 million actuation cycles of durability and can easily be adapted in design to suit application-specific requirements for packaging integration and energy requirements. Gemns EHGs are compact, efficient, and can be sealed for water resistance and dust-tight rating.
Instead of sun, wind, or water, our energy harvesting process involves electromagnetic induction wherein a kinetic force, like the push of a button or the roll of a wave, moves a small magnet through a metal coil. In adherence to Faraday’s Law, this action creates an electromagnetic charge, which is enough to power data transmission. The more efficient the energy capture and conversion, the larger the charge. The larger the charge, the greater the range, reliability, and functionality of the data transmission.
On-board electromagnetic energy harvesting allows simple wireless data transmission devices to operate reliably without the need for battery replacement. An example of where this technology has significant practical and financial value is for wireless sensors deployed in vast matrixes and hard-to-access locations. For connected sensors to do their job, they need to be able to reliably transmit real-time data. On-board electromagnetic energy harvesting allows this imperative to be automated and trusted permanently.
Few Application Examples:
- Plunger Activation applications (limit/safety switches) with mechanical striker application
- Magnetically Coupled – Provides the benefits of non-contact actuation.
- Preloaded/Resettable – EHG is preloaded with energy, requiring extremely low force to release energy.
- Remote on/off control of devices and equipment
- Industrial on/off switch.
- Remote triggering control.
