Concept for Magnet Intra Logistics and Assembly Supporting the Improvement of Running Characteristics of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors

摘要

Current scientific studies prove the dependency of the running characteristics of permanent magnet synchronous motors on variations of the physical properties of permanent magnets and manufacturing errors. Currently, this fact is not considered in most process chains for magnet and rotor assembly. Thus, insufficient rotor quality can only be detected during the end-of-line test, causing rejects of whole motors. As a solution for these drawbacks, a computerized magnet intra-logistics storage and assembly concept is presented, using sophisticated magnet measurement technologies. This concept allows for the traceability of single magnets and enables to compensate variations of the magnetic properties by selective magnet assembly.
