eupec
eupec is one of the world's leading producers of power semiconductors in
module and disc configurations.
PRODUCTS
eupec's power semiconductors are used in power electronic applications ranging from 0.5kW to beyond 1 Gigawatt; typically in the following applications:
APPLICATIONS
Power semiconductors are regulating the supply of electricity by controlling voltages and frequencies. Their continuous development has made this process ever more efficient. New technologies pioneered by eupec allow to precisely control ever increasing currents and voltages while at the same time reducing energy losses. This results in energy savings that benefit not only our customers but also the environment.

Following are examples of how power semiconductors improve their applications
- Three-phase drive technology for frequency controlled cage rotor motors minimizes energy losses and the wear and tear on parts
- Commuter trains and trams require less maintenance, have an increased lifetime, and offer more safety to their passengers
- Windpower generators adjust to the wind force so that the natural energy is always used in the most efficient way
- Power supplies secure the safe and efficient operation of critical equipment even in the case of power outages
- High-frequency welding equipment allows building of stronger and therefore safer pipelines and complex industrial units
- Medical X-Ray machines with a high-speed exposure optimize the radiation dose, benefiting patients: Higher quality pictures and lower dose of radiation
- Laser technologies used in medicine and electro-chemistry can be operated with highest precision
- High voltage transmission valves minimize the losses during long distance energy transfer
- High power welding units generating currents of 300 kA+ allow secure welding of steel drums and other large diameter devices
