Suppliers of 50kW 70 krpm motor and controller

Suppliers of 50kW 70 krpm motor and controller

(OP)
I'm trying to buy a motor and speed controller for an axial flow compressor test rig. ideally I'd like 50kW which should drive it to 70,000 rpm but I'd consider anything above 8kW and 30,000 rpm. I've spent a couple of days with Google but haven't really come up with anything. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

RE: Suppliers of 50kW 70 krpm motor and controller

Here is a technical marketing publication that includes a power vs. speed plot indicating the range of motors and controllers that may be available.

I found some Siemens information also. The information I found was much higher power and lower RPM for pipeline compressors, but they probably have something in your Power / RPM range also.

PM synchronous motors for drag racing superchargers are in that speed and power range.
Kompositprodukter does develop things like that.
