Evaluation of Laser-welded Electrical Steel Laminations for Electric Motors

The soft magnetic core is a basic component in electric motors, along with the winding and insulation systems. Soft magnetic cores are continuously magnetized and demagnetized to guide and amplify the magnetic flux. To reduce iron losses during operation, stator and rotor cores are usually made of thin laminated iron-silicon sheets insulated electrically from each other. These materials are easy t...
