Supporting advanced EV motor design

Electrification is driving demand for more complex designs that must deliver high efficiency, whilst meeting increasing power density and compactness constraints. With this comes a need for more advanced electrical steels. iCARe^® 420 Save offers you the best of both worlds - low magnetic losses combined with high mechanical strength, in a single optimised grade.

Technical details

Integrated efficiency and strength in modern traction motors

Designing high speed motors with sufficient mechanical strength requires electrical steels that have optimised mechanical properties and low core losses. Our iCARe^® 420 Save products are ideal for use in high-performance electric vehicle motors, as they have high yield strength sand low core loss behaviour at high frequencies.

Integrated performance

Supports compact traction motor designs by combining the advantages of improved efficiency with better motor compactness, all in one grade.

Improved power density

Offers improved energy-efficient motor operation despite demanding mechanical conditions.

Energy efficiency

Low magnetic losses contribute to extended driving range and lower energy consumption.

Automotive production readiness

Compatible with serial punching, stacking and assembly processes used in automotive manufacturing.

Applications

iCARe^® 420 Save electrical steels are commonly used in:

Electric vehicle traction motors

A unique combination of very low iron losses, high magnetic performance and guaranteed yield strength for today’s EV motor design.

Compact, high power-density motor architectures

Enables creation of smaller, more efficient motors with no sacrifice to overall power density, efficiency or thermal performance.

Rotor and stator designs requiring both strength and efficiency

Lets engineers design more efficient and higher-speed rotors and stators.

Automotive e-drive systems with demanding compactness constraints

Increased torque and reduced stator/rotor weight, without any increase in size enables easy integration into e-axle and drive unit architectures.
