Soft magnetic composites
– enabling more efficient electromagnetic designs
Do you want to design and produce more compact, high-performance electromagnetic components?
The intensifying electrification trend in the automotive industry along with calls for high-efficiency, low-cost industrial applications will drive the demand for energy- and cost-efficient electromagnetic components. Electromagnetic components of soft magnetic composite (SMC) materials play a fundamental role in this conversion, making it possible to manufacture more compact and cost-efficient motor and inductor solutions compared to using traditional designs.
SMC materials are made of iron powder particles coated with an electrically insulating layer and can be formed into complex shapes by means of powder metallurgy, thereby allowing three-dimensional magnetic circuit design.
The main benefits of soft magnetic composite solutions for both motor design and production processes are:
- Compact design – both size and weight of the components can be reduced
- High performance – can meet the highest efficiency requirements
- Excellent cost efficiency – the compact designs require less material and enable simple net shaping production process with minimum waste and reduced need for subsequent operations
Höganäs offers design services in combination with a wide range of soft magnetic composite materials with unique 3D flux properties, ideal for new motor designs. Electromagnetic components made from our soft magnetic composite materials can provide unique values to a number of electric applications for automotive as well as industrial use.
Our soft magnetic composites can be used in a wide range of different applications such as:
