Permanent magnet motors use magnets—rather than windings—to create the magnetic field necessary for motor operation. This design eliminates the need for external excitation and significantly reduces ...

Never mind present-day’s bonny blather on the benefits of electric, hydrogen and biofuel power. How do you feel about magnets? Better make up your mind, stat; as of this morning, a company named ...

These new iron-nitride magnets are stronger, cleaner to make, and made from domestic iron-salt waste and nitrogen.

Claimed that Iron Nitride magnet technology offers a promising alternative to traditional rare-earth-based magnets.

Two great minds in permanent-magnet-free motor design are fusing their know-how to create an even more capable inductive electric motor. Mahle and Valeo have teamed up to introduce what they call the ...

The leading German tech giants over at Mahle have developed an electric motor that doesn’t use permanent magnets. It has the potential of powering a wide range of vehicles, it’s highly efficient, and ...

MUNICH, Germany—ZF unveiled an electric motor that does not require magnets or rare earth materials, reducing reliance on mining in countries such as China and cutting manufacturing's carbon footprint ...

Several companies around the globe have been hard at work innovating and refining magnet-free electric motors to make them a more viable option for the fast-growing EV industry. ZF Friedrichshafen has ...
