About trafomodern
trafomodern Transformatorengesellschaft m.b.H. is an Austrian company founded in 1945, headquartered in Hornstein (Burgenland), and specialised in the development and production of inductive wound components. The portfolio includes transformers, mains and motor chokes, reactors and converter transformers, also with air or liquid/water cooling and rated voltages up to 12 kV. Products are developed customised in close cooperation with customers, from one-off to series production. Fields of application include drive technology, renewable energies (wind, hydro and solar power), mobility (rail vehicles, cable cars, shipbuilding) as well as industry and mechanical and plant engineering, including on drilling rigs. Customers include companies such as Siemens, ABB, Enercon, Voith, Liebherr, Bombardier and Doppelmayr. Around 8,000 wind turbines in Europe, China and India have been equipped with trafomodern products over the last ten years. Every product is unit-tested before delivery.
