Soft Magnetic Composite (SMC) 'Somaloy(R)' for Industrial Power Supply
Somaloy(R)
Achieving alloy-level low loss with pure iron-based powder! Contributing to the high efficiency of industrial power supplies.
In the field of industrial power supplies, there is a demand for high efficiency through the reduction of power loss. In particular, for reactors used in power supply circuits, improving energy efficiency and suppressing heat generation are important challenges. To address these challenges, the adoption of materials that enable low loss and miniaturization is essential. Our developed soft magnetic composite (SMC) 'Somaloy(R)' significantly reduces eddy current loss in the high-frequency range by applying an insulating coating to pure iron-based powder, contributing to the high efficiency of industrial power supplies. 【Application Scenarios】 - Boost reactors for DC/DC converters - Power supply circuits requiring miniaturization and lightweight due to high frequency 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Reduction of power loss due to low iron loss in the high-frequency range - Contribution to the design of compact and lightweight reactors - Improvement in manufacturing efficiency
