Advances in SMC Technology - Materials and Applications

摘要

Soft Magnetic Composite (SMC) challenges traditional material such as soft magnetic ferrites and electrical steels in applications with alternating magnetic fields. As the market potential is large this is an interesting area for the P/M industry. By utilising the features offered by the material itself as well as the P/M forming technique new competitive electromagnetic designs can be realised. This paper will describe main features and benefits offered by the technology with focus on electrical motors. Finally, the latest and future materials will be presented.
