Abstract

This paper presents a review of the main advantages and challenges of Additive Manufacturing (AM) applied in the production of soft magnetic components for electrical machines. Firstly, a general introduction about additive manufacturing is made, considering all of its possibilities of application, then the authors focused on the electrical machine application field, in particular the AM of soft ferromagnetic materials. The soft ferromagnetic materials are fundamental for the production of electrical machines, and currently, there are more and more requests for designed ad hoc geometries, which can be difficult to produce with conventional manufacturing technologies. With this purpose, AM can be used to produce the desired geometries.
Keywords: additive manufacturing; electrical machines; ferromagnetic materials; mechanical defects; eddy current; hysteresis losses additive manufacturing; electrical machines; ferromagnetic materials; mechanical defects; eddy current; hysteresis losses
