Kite Magnetics Scales Up Stator Production Using Its Aeroperm Material 

Attendees at Coiltech Italia in September at Pordenone were able to learn more about Kite Magnetics’ low core-loss nanocrystalline magnetic material Aeroperm and how it can help maintain the magnetic performance of electric motors, stators, rotors and high-frequency magnetic systems. Since our earlier report two years ago on the Australian company, it has now established a 5 ton per year nanocrystalline stator core pilot production line and booked its first automotive tier 1 order.

Ultrafast Demagnetisation – Thinner Iron, Stronger Effect

The thinner an iron film, the more easily it can be demagnetised by a laser pulse. Researchers at the University of Duisburg-Essen, working with Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin and other partners, have discovered why: the key lies in the magnetic order at the material’s interfaces. In the long term, these findings could contribute to the development of new technologies for magnetic data storage. The results have been published in the scientific journal Advanced Science. […]
