Iron Powders
for Soft
Magnetic Products
Soft Magnetic Composites (SMC) is
the internationally recognized name for pressed and heat-treated metal powder
components with three-dimensional (3D) magnetic properties. SMC materials are
composed of surface-insulated iron powder particles, that are compacted to form
uniform isotropic components with complex shapes in a single step. The use of
these materials now makes innovative electrical machine designs industrially
viable.
SMALLOY is our single brand in the SMC segment. SMALLOY is a complete system of
products that ensures the optimal material for different electromagnetic
applications.
SMALLOY makes it possible to design innovative, compact and powerful electric
motors. With SMALLOY it is possible for motor designers to build an electric
motor to suit its application instead of restricting the application to the
motors limitations! The secret is the unique 3D properties of the SMALLOY
components. Using SMALLOY it becomes possible to define a magnetic field in
three dimensions and create improved or even entirely new machine concepts!
Features and Benefits
A uniform SMALLOY component has the
ability to carry magnetic flux in 3 directions (3D). This
feature, together with the 3D-shaping possibilities of the P/M process,
enables improved or new topologies to be used in electrical machine
designs.
The key to success lies in machine designs that utilize these unique
shaping opportunities, which open the way to smaller motors with cost
advantages gained from lower winding volume, a higher fill factor and
built-in assembly features.
The proven ability of
the powder metallurgy industry to supply components with good tolerances
and consistent properties is now available to the electrical machine
industry. SMC stators can be designed with:
-
3D
flux paths for new topologies
-
Built-in assembly features for mounting
-
Built-in magnetic features such as skew
-
Smooth, rounded features allowing tighter winding and/or thinner
insulation
-
Subdivided stators for modular assembly
-
Modular assembly for cost-effective refurbishment
This generation of new ideas is an exciting phase,
which can lead to a new era of innovative motors.
