ETP Visits CFR in Italy – Strengthening a 30-Year Partnership
During a recent visit to CFR in Modena, ETP further strengthened its long-standing partnership with the Italian motor manufacturer. The visit highlighted a key part of ETP’s strategy: working closely with world-leading manufacturers, with both development and production in Europe.
The partnership between ETP and CFR spans more than 30 years and plays an important role in delivering electrification solutions to the Scandinavian market. By combining CFR’s expertise in electric motor design with ETP’s system integration capabilities, customers gain access to solutions that are both technically advanced and tailored to specific needs.
Located in Italy’s Motor Valley, CFR has over 45 years of experience in developing and manufacturing electric motors. The recent visit provided insight into ongoing innovation, production capabilities, and future development – further strengthening the collaboration between the two companies.
The partnership between CFR and ETP is the result of years of dedicated teamwork and mutual trust. By combining our expertise in custom electric motor design with ETP’s strength as a system integrator, we are able to offer a unique value proposition to the Scandinavian market.

From Components to Complete Solutions
A key strength of the partnership is its ability to simplify electrification. Instead of supplying standalone components, we can offer a complete approach – from concept and design to production and local support – reducing complexity and lowering the threshold for companies transitioning to electric solutions.
ETP designs and develops complete electrification systems where motors, motor controllers, and battery systems work seamlessly together, tailored to each application. At the core of these systems is CFR’s world-leading motor technology, playing a crucial role in delivering the performance, efficiency, and reliability required.
- Together, we remove the technical barriers to electrification. Our combined expertise allows customers to rely on us throughout the entire process, from idea to finished solution, adds Mantovani.
CFR’s portfolio includes a wide range of electric motors, from synchronous PMAC motors to asynchronous AC and DC solutions, designed for applications such as traction, steering, and hydraulic systems. With outputs of up to 70 kW and protection levels up to IP67, the motors are built for demanding environments. At the same time, the flexibility to deliver custom-designed solutions – from individual motors to fully integrated systems with motor and gearbox – remains a defining strength.
The long-term collaboration with CFR creates significant value for our customers. Their motor technology is at the forefront in terms of performance, efficiency, and reliability, which gives us a strong foundation when developing complete systems. By combining CFR’s advanced motor solutions with our expertise in system integration, we are able to design optimized, application-specific solutions where every component is engineered to work together from the start.
