Inductor cores for power electronics

A range of new material (Somaloy® i-series) with reduced losses and improved saturation induction sets a new standard for iron powder cores aimed at inductive components.

Somaloy provides a competitive alternative in applications that previously were restricted to laminated electro steel components. The component-shaping process and 3D-properties offer greater design freedom. Therefore, Somaloy inductor solutions can be optimised and integrated to a greater extent in the specific application. Modular or segmented Somaloy solutions also offer efficient manufacturing and tailored performance.
