There is a constant need and desire throughout the HVAC industry to spur innovation and create new products and ideas that can redefine the marketplace. In the realm of motors, the permanent magnet ...

Linear motors are becoming increasingly practical for general motion. Many are used for long strokes of a few feet or more. One new design, however, where the magnets move relative to a stationary ...

Lucid Group has been granted a patent for a hybrid rotor assembly for electric motors. The assembly incorporates both sintered permanent magnets and bonded magnets in the lamination cavities of the ...

General Motors (GM) and Niron Magnetics, a company headquartered in Wisconsin, have formed a joint venture to work together on developing a type of electric motor magnet that can be made without the ...

China controls about 90% of the entire global supply of rare earth magnets, including their mining and refining. That means that most of the neodymium, dysprosium, and terbium that end up in EV motors ...

The leading German tech giants over at Mahle have developed an electric motor that doesn’t use permanent magnets. It has the potential of powering a wide range of vehicles, it’s highly efficient, and ...

In applications demanding precision and throughput, linear motor production systems usually need to be built from the ground up. Fractional microns accuracy requires feedback from an optical encoder, ...

Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) said it had developed the (claimed) world's first neodymium reduced, heat resistant magnet for electrified vehicle high output motors. The magnet does not require ...

Ironless linear motors have had a clear advantage over ironcore linear motors in many applications for one clear reason: they’re not subject to cogging. “Cogging” is a term used to describe ...
