1 Iron core Material-Somaloy Unique magnetic properties High purity iron powder Electrically insulated surface 0,1mm Result in Inorganic insulation 3-D material with Iron particle Iron particle High magnetic saturation Low eddy current loss Sufficient strength

2 Somaloy vs. silicon steel lamination Somaloy materials have a distributed air-gap: => Lower permeability compared to laminations 1,8 1,6 B (T) 1,4 1,2 BH-curves 1,0 0,8 0,6 0,4 0,2 0,0 Somaloy 3P 0.35mm Si lamination H (A/m) The importance of permeability is application dependent

3 Somaloy vs. silicon steel lamination Total loss; DC+AC losses = area of hysteresis-curve Lamination constant sheet thickness DC High Frequency Somaloy small particle size Low DC loss High AC loss Medium DC loss Low AC loss

4 Somaloy vs. silicon steel lamination 0,65mm motor lamination Density 7,6g/cm 3 Measured on stamped and stacked ring sample Hysteresis curves 0.65mm laminate 2, 0 1, 0 H (ka/m) 0, , 0 B (T) DC 300Hz Somaloy 500 Hysteresis curves Somaloy 500-2,0 2,0 1,0 B (T) DC 300Hz Density 7,3g/cm 3 Measured on compacted and heat treated ring sample H (ka/m) 0, ,0-2,0

5 Comparison SMC losses vs. losses in laminates. In general: Somaloy vs. silicon steel lamination - Hysteresis losses: higher for SMC - Dynamic losses: lower for SMC - Hysteresis losses f - Dynamic losses f 2
