The design report of the axial gap motor is currently available for free on JMAG!

Heganes Japan Co., Ltd. will exhibit at the "TECHNO-FRONTIER 2025 Motor Technology Exhibition." We will introduce the soft magnetic composite (SMC) 'Somaloy(R)', which is attracting attention as an environmentally friendly technology that can be applied using powder metallurgy methods. At the venue, we will provide information on our latest developments ahead of the official release. Please experience the next-generation solution "Somaloy (R) 2025," which brings us closer to a sustainable future, at the venue. [Highlights] - We will quickly introduce a new grade set to be released in Q4 2025. Some next-generation materials currently under development will also be displayed. - We will share the CO2 emission data (ISO14067) for Somaloy(R) and highlight our contributions to sustainable manufacturing. [Planned Exhibits] - Various motor cores made from SMC Application examples of Somaloy(R), which is effectively the benchmark for pure iron-based powder magnetic core materials: 1) Product examples adopted domestically and internationally: Axial gap motors YASA-type motors Motor cores Cores for filter coils, etc. 2) Development by Shizuoka Institute of Science and Technology: Rim drive axial gap induction motor.

Heganes Japan Co., Ltd. will exhibit at the "TECHNO-FRONTIER 2024 Motor Technology Exhibition." At our booth, we will introduce the latest topics related to the soft magnetic composite material (SMC) 'Somaloy(R)', which is gaining attention as an environmentally friendly technology. This will include application examples for axial gap motors and our sustainability initiatives, including the CO2 emission calculation results for Somaloy(R). 【Exhibition Schedule】 ◆ Various motor cores using SMC Application examples of Somaloy(R), which is practically the benchmark for pure iron-based powder magnetic core materials: 1) Prototype evaluation: Single stator, single rotor axial gap motor 2) Developed by Shizuoka Institute of Science and Technology: Rim drive axial gap induction motor 3) Adopted by domestic manufacturers: Actuator equipped with axial gap motor 4) YASA-type motor 5) Low-speed, high-torque direct drive application transverse flux motor ◆ Sustainability 1) CO2 emissions of Somaloy(R) calculated based on ISO 14067 2) Introduction of climate change response roadmap

Heganes Japan will exhibit at the 2024 YOKOHAMA Automotive Technology Exhibition, which will be held from May 22 (Wednesday) to May 24 (Friday). At our booth, we plan to introduce carbon footprint data and case studies of metal powder applications (initiatives towards vehicle electrification) in two areas of environmentally friendly technology: sintering applications and soft magnetic applications. ◆ Introduction of sustainability activities 1) Product carbon footprint 2) Sintered material Astaloy CrS, known for its dimensional stability and recyclability ◆ Sintered gears for automotive transmissions 1) High-density molded gears (prototype) 2) Sintered large ring gears (prototype) 3) Other sintered components ◆ Various motor cores by SMC Application examples of Somaloy(R), the de facto benchmark for pure iron-based powder magnetic core materials 1) Rim drive axial gap induction motor developed at Shizuoka Institute of Science and Technology 2) Actuators equipped with axial gap motors adopted by domestic manufacturers 3) Transverse flux motors for low-speed, high-torque direct drive applications * Latest market trends will also be introduced We sincerely look forward to your visit.
