We supply specific core loss curves on request. Please note the final losses of the core will vary and typically losses will be higher in three phase and in single phase cores due to the stack factor and destruction factor of the core. Performance curves (W/kg) available on request.
SLITTING

AMC has three high capacity slitting lines that can precision slit any size strip between 1.2m and 10mm on demand.

ANNEALING

Gas Furnace

Our energy efficient natural gas furnace is used to heat treat all folded cores to allow full retention of the parent materials magnetic properties.

Testing

All material is pre-tested on our Soken Iron Loss Tester to ensure quality and authenticity of material used, and all products are tested after production on one of our 5 test benches to guarantee final No Load Losses
