The development of motor vehicles using alternative fuels would offer significant reductions in carbon monoxide emissions into the environment. Addressing the problem of a fuel pump's relatively short life expectancy due to higher volume of fuel flow is essential. A solution lies in a carbon commutator motor where the copper base is fused with a layer of electric carbon. Carbon commutator motors are, due to their chemical inertness to either classic or alternative types of fuel, over ten times more durable than copper. Also, due to the lower contact resistance between the brushes and the carbon commutator layer, a carbon commutator motor uses less electrical power than the copper alternative. At the same time it provides smoother running (less friction, homogeneous current field) and reduces its effet on RF disturbance.

Kolektor's answer to the above challenge is the development new type of carbon commutator:

Carbon Commutator

Characteristics: -  soldered joints between copper base and carbon, -  robust type with strong copper elements, resistant to damages at assembly -  tested carbon materials of commutator and brushes -  cooperation with leading manufactures of carbon brushes for the automotive industry
