Paddlewheel VS. Propeller
While most manufacturers of propeller-based counter-current systems – whether horizontal configurations (Endless Pools from US, BINDER from Germany, EVA from Netherlands) or vertical installations (SWIMEO from France, Eco from China) – fundamentally rely on creating high-velocity turbulence that mixes with pool water to reduce flow speed, resulting in radially diminishing currents centered on the discharge port. This ‘turbulent dissipation’ methodology not only exhibits high energy consumption and suboptimal user experience, but more critically poses inherent safety risks.
To address these limitations, SWIMILES has pioneered a paddlewheel-driven laminar flow generator, seamlessly integrated with modular pool architectures.

Signifificant turbulence can create discomfort for swimmers. Competing manufacturers implement flflow management systems such as buffer tanks or honeycomb flflow panels to regulate water movement, but these stabilization features inherently reduce operational efficiency |

BLDC VS. Induction Motor VS. Hydraulic Motor
BLDC (Brushless DC Motors), induction motors, and hydraulic motors serve as the three primary power solutions for counter-current generators. Manufacturers typically implement one dominant technology based on application scenarios and cost structures.
SWIMILES’s all-in-one motor-drive system seamlessly merges the motor and driver into a compact, factory-sealed unit. Through proprietary resin encapsulation technology, it delivers military-grade waterproofing (IP68 certified) while keeping critical components within 7°C of ambient pool temperatures.
