MAGMEL™ for Magnetic Applications
MAGMEL™ is soft magnetic iron powder for compact magnetic core with insulating layer on its surface.
It reduces eddy current loss and produces parts with low iron loss.
The compactability of the powder is superior and it will give high magnetic flux density.
We have ML series for low frequency and MH series for high frequency.
Features
- Low iron loss and high efficiency
As a high heat-resistant insulated coating is formed on the steel powder, high-temperature magnetic annealing of a compacted powder is possible.
In addition to alleviating compacting deformation due to annealing, iron loss is reduced by controlling steel powder particle size and structure.
Additionally, by insulating the spaces between particles, eddy current loss at high frequency ranges can be reduced, making it possible to handle high-speed rotation and harmonics. - Support for three-dimensional design
As it is magnetically isotropic, three-dimensional circuit design can be supported.
Flexible circuit design is expected to enable lighter and more compact components. - Caters to a wide range of needs
We offer grades for die-lubricated compacting and internally-lubricated compacting, catering to diverse needs.
For die-lubricated compacting: High magnetic flux density and high strength
Internally-lubricated compacting: high productivity and complex shapes
