Magnetic Material Processing and Characterization
Overview
New magnetic materials enable vehicle electrification by operating at higher frequencies and temperatures with low power loss.
- Capabilities were developed to allow transition of new alloys from lab-scale to actual components:
- alloy casting
- production of full-size components
- complete characterization and design capabilities
- Currently the largest, US-owned production equipment for this material class
- New magnetic materials enable vehicle electrification by operating at higher frequencies and temperatures with low power loss—compliments operation with SiC and GaN devices
- provisional patent submitted for high-temperature, low-loss material
- prototype components produced
