Discover how to build a simple electromagnetic motor and generator using everyday materials in this hands-on science experiment. Follow the detailed steps to assemble a motor with a plastic bottle cap ...

Researchers in Europe are developing metallic glass materials that could significantly reduce energy losses ...

IE5+ permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) from NORD Drivesystems deliver the highest energy efficiency available in 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 ...

While electric vehicles certainly offer a host of eco-friendly advantages, they're not without some asterisks, one being the rare earth materials (and harmful mining thereof) used to make the magnets ...

Elizabeth Davis-Fowell, PhD Researcher based at The University of Sheffield, Partners with Volkswagen Materials Group to discover novel alternatives to existing magnetic alloys in use in the ...

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 ...

This video is an animation of the principle behind PI’s magnetic linear motors. The magnetic linear motors correspond to a sequence of a number of voice-coil actuators; individual coils can be ...

NORD offers IE5+ motors in sizes 71, 90, and newly released, size 112, extending the power range from 0.5 to 15.0 hp.
