What is non oriented silicon steel?

 

Ferrosilicon alloy with very low carbon content. The grains in the deformed and annealed steel plate are randomly oriented. The silicon content of the alloy is 1.5% to 3.0%, or the sum of the silicon and aluminum content is 1.8% to 4.0%. The products are usually cold-rolled plates or strips with nominal thicknesses of 0.35 and 0.5mm, which are mainly used to manufacture electric motors and generators.

types of non oriented silicon steel
 
  • Non-oriented fully processed silicon steel

Non-oriented, fully processed silicon steel has varying silicon levels that range from 0.5% to 3.25% Si. It has uniform magnetic properties in all directions. This type of silicon steel does not require recrystallisation processes to develop its properties. The low silicon alloy grades provide better magnetic permeability and thermal conductivity. For high alloy grades, better performance is expected in high frequencies, with very low losses. This type is excellent for magnetic circuits in motors, transformers, and electrical system housing. This fully processed type provides difficulty in punchability due to a completed annealing process. Organic coatings are added to improve lubrication in the punching process.

 

  • Non-oriented semi-processed silicon steel

Non-oriented semi-processed silicon steels are largely non-silicon alloyed steel and are annealed at low temperatures after the final cold rolling. The end-user, however, has to provide the final stress-relief anneal according to the steel’s intended application. The punchability of this silicon steel type is better than the non-oriented fully processed type, so organic coatings are not required. Non-oriented semi-processed grades are good core materials for small rotors, stators, and small power transformers.

Cold Rolled Non Oriented Silicon Steel Classification

A. Silicon steel sheets can be divided into low silicon and high silicon according to their silicon content. Low silicon wafers contain less than 2.8% silicon. They have a certain mechanical strength and are mainly used to make motors, commonly known as motor silicon steel sheets. High silicon wafers contain 2.8%-4.8% silicon. They have good magnetism but are brittle and are mainly used for Used in manufacturing transformer cores, commonly known as transformer silicon steel sheets. There is no strict boundary between the two in actual use, and high-silicon wafers are commonly used to manufacture large motors.

B. According to the production and processing technology, it can be divided into two types: hot rolling and cold rolling. Cold rolling can be divided into two types: grain non oriented and grain oriented. Cold-rolled sheets have uniform thickness, good surface quality, and high magnetic properties. Therefore, with the development of industry, hot-rolled sheets have a tendency to be replaced by cold-rolled sheets (our country has clearly required the discontinuation of the use of hot-rolled silicon steel sheets, which is what was previously called "Cold instead of hot").

Prevent corrosion: Apply rust inhibitors or coatings where necessary, especially if the silicon steel is exposed to corrosive environments. Regular cleaning with mild detergents can help remove corrosive substances that may adhere to the steel surface.

06/

Monitor operating conditions: Keep track of the operating conditions of silicon steel in electrical equipment, such as in transformers or motors. Excessive heat, vibration, or mechanical stress can accelerate material degradation.

07/

Periodic inspections: Perform regular inspections of the silicon steel components to identify any issues early on. Look for signs of deterioration, such as discoloration, warping, or delamination of the laminations.

08/

Thermal management: Ensure adequate cooling is provided to the silicon steel in high-load applications. Implement heat sinks, fans, or liquid cooling systems if necessary to dissipate heat effectively.

09/

Replace damaged components: If any part of the non oriented silicon steel exhibits signs of damage or deterioration, replace it promptly to prevent further degradation and ensure the reliability of the system.

About Non Oriented Silicon Steel FAQ

Q: What is non oriented silicon steel?

A: Silicon steel made without special processing to control crystal orientation, non oriented silicon steel, usually has a silicon level of 2 to 3.5% and has similar magnetic properties in all directions, i.e., it is isotropic. Cold-rolled non grain-oriented steel is often abbreviated to CRNGO.

Q: What is non oriented silicon steel sheet?

A: Non oriented silicon steel sheets are sheets tailored to produce specific properties and are produced from Fe-Si or Fe-Si-Al alloys. Non oriented silicon steel sheets are incorporated into a wide range of equipment, from the simplest domestic appliances to hybrid and pure electric vehicles.

Q: What is the composition of non oriented silicon steel?

A: Non oriented silicon steel, composed of iron and silicon, plays a vital role in the cores of motors and transformers. These cores, responsible for guiding magnetic flux, benefit from non oriented silicon steel's properties. Its high silicon content increases electrical resistance, effectively curbing energy-wasting eddy currents.

Q: What Is The Process Of Cold Rolled Non Oriented Silicon Steel?

A: Cold rolled non oriented silicon steel process flow: hot metal desulfurization pretreatment → converter blowing → vacuum treatment → continuous casting → hot rolling → pickling cold rolling combined unit → slitting unit/trimming and rewinding unit → wide coil packaging/narrow coil packaging.

Q: What is the characteristics of non oriented silicon steel?

A: ■ Low Core Loss ■ Low Magnetostriction ■ High Permeability ■ Stable Quality ■ Non-oriented

Q: What Are the Key Properties of Non Oriented Silicon Steel?

A: Low Core Loss: Non oriented silicon steel has low hysteresis loss and eddy current loss, making it ideal for transformer cores and motor laminations. 
High Permeability: It has high magnetic permeability, allowing efficient magnetic flux flow. 
High Resistivity: Non oriented silicon steel has high electrical resistivity, reducing eddy current losses.

Q: How Does Non Oriented Silicon Steel Different from Grain Oriented Steel?

A: Non oriented silicon steel is characterized by a comparatively random crystallographic orientation and minimal in-plane anisotropy of magnetic properties. 
In contrast, grain-oriented (GO) silicon steel shows optimal magnetic behavior in one direction only. 
Non-oriented grades have magnetic properties that are as isotropic as possible, making them ideal for various applications.

Q: What is applications of Non Oriented Silicon Steel?

A: Transformers: Used in power and distribution transformers to minimize energy losses. 
Electric Motors: Used as laminations in motor cores for improved efficiency. 
Generators: Used in alternators and generators. 
Inductors and Chokes: Used in electronic circuits.

Q: Why Is non oriented silicon steel Important for High-Speed Motors?

A: High-speed motors operate at elevated frequencies, where iron losses (hysteresis and eddy current losses) become significant. 
Non-oriented silicon steel minimizes these losses, improving motor efficiency.
It also ensures stable performance across different rotational speeds.

Q: What is the difference between oriented and non oriented silicon steel?

A: Silicon levels above 3.5% result in the steel becoming very brittle and hard to work. Oriented steels have the lowest core loss (see Table 1) and are used in transformers, whereas nonoriented steel is used in electrical machines as there are varying flux directions.

Q: What is the Manufacturing process of non oriented silicon steel?

A: Non oriented silicon steel is produced through the cold rolling process. During the production process, electromagnetic induction technology is required to control the rolling temperature and pressure to keep the crystallization direction in the steel in a random state, thereby achieving inconspicuous orientation.
