The Magnetization Effect on Soft Magnetic Composite Prepared Stators of Axial Flux Motors

The axial flux motors should represent a good and reliable solution for a large variety of applications. The use of soft magnetic composite materials allows to resolve some drawbacks of the aforementioned motors. Two axial flux motors have been prepared with the same design. The unique difference consists of soft magnetic composite stator preparation. The magnetization effect during the stators production process has been evaluated. Different tests have been performed in order to compare a magnetized and a not magnetized stator. Distinct differences have been noted, showing some advantages for the prototype with aligned SM C material.
