Electrical Steel Sheet
Electrical steel sheets are ultra-low carbon alloy steel sheets containing 0.5% to 4.5% silicon. They are produced by processing electrical steel through cold rolling or hot rolling, with a typical thickness ranging from 0.15 mm to 0.5 mm. They are not magnets but rather "magnetic conductive materials"-their core function is to efficiently conduct and concentrate magnetic fields, rather than generate magnetic fields independently.
Key Characteristics of Electrical Steel Sheets
High Magnetic Permeability: It can efficiently concentrate magnetic fields, reduce magnetic field dispersion, and improve the magnetic conversion efficiency of electrical equipment.
Low Loss: This includes low hysteresis loss and low eddy current loss, which reduces energy waste and heat generation during equipment operation.
Insulating Coating: The surface is usually covered with a thin insulating layer, which prevents current flow between adjacent sheets and further reduces eddy current loss.
Main Classifications of Electrical Steel Sheets
Based on production processes and magnetic properties, electrical steel sheets are mainly divided into two categories:
Grain-Oriented Electrical Steel Sheets: The grain direction is highly uniform, suitable for use in unidirectional magnetic fields, such as transformer cores.
Non-Oriented Electrical Steel Sheets: The grain direction is random, suitable for use in multi-directional magnetic fields, such as motor rotors and stators.
The Function of Electrical Steel Sheets
Electrical steel sheets possess excellent magnetic conductivity. They can significantly increase the inductance coefficient of ballasts, thereby generating a high self-induced electromotive force at the moment the starter's contacts open and close when the lamp is turned on. This high voltage excites and conducts the lamp tube, allowing it to emit light normally.
Common types include cold-rolled silicon steel sheets (grade DG3), cold-rolled non-oriented electrical steel strips (grade DW), and cold-rolled grain-oriented electrical steel strips (grade DQ). These are suitable for manufacturing cores of medium- and low-power low-frequency transformers, chokes, reactors, and inductors in various electronic systems and household appliances.
This type of alloy has good toughness and can be processed through punching, cutting, and other methods. The cores made from it come in two forms: laminated and wound.
