Reliable, highly efficient and powerful motors

Continuous improvement often forms the basis of successful technology. The same goes for electric motors in automotive applications. While the first surge of electric vehicles is entering the market, engineers are already designing the next generation of electric motors that should be more sustainable, more efficient and better performing. Achieving these goals requires the application of next generation non-oriented electrical steels in electric motors with further optimised designs. This is why through-chain partnerships between material suppliers, stampers and e-motor designers can make a difference.

Your benefits

Electrical steel for next generation designs

Nowadays, electric motors in automotive are always designed towards a specific application. Dependent on the chosen technology and design of the motor different material requirements will arise. These will vary, among others, in terms of permeability, magnetic losses and yield strength. At the same time the material’s gauge is of importance to meet not only performance but also processing requirements. This wide range of options requires electrical steels to be versatile, which is exactly what our Hi-Lite product range of non-oriented electrical steels aims to do. Hi-Lite opens up a world of possibilities when designing high frequency applications. It helps you achieve harmony between size, weight, energy efficiency and performance.
