Synchronous reluctance technology Design concept Single sheet of punched electrical steel The sheets stack to a complete rotor body. Can either be stacked on a pre-assembly piece or direct on the shaft. Mounting the rotor body on a shaft. The rotor will be balanced after shaft assembly. The rotor body inset in a stator. A standard stator 4 pole design is used but with adapted winding. August 26, 2014 Slide 5
