Soft Magnetics at PCIM Europe 2024

Bunting’s wide range of soft magnetics is on show on stand 501 in hall 9 at this year’s PCIM Europe (11-13 June 2024, Nuremberg, Germany).

PCIM Europe is the world’s leading exhibition and conference for power electronics, intelligent motion, renewable energy, and energy management. 

At PCIM Europe, a significant proportion of the technology utilises magnetic forces.  Bunting specialises in working with product designers to maximise magnetic performance.  With the ongoing demand for greater efficiency and sensitivity of operation, companies turn to Bunting’s specialist team of magnetics engineers to design the optimum solution.

Bunting’s specialist product portfolio and engineered solutions includes permanent magnets (e.g. ceramic ferrite and neodymium iron boron), electromagnets, and soft magnetics.

Soft magnetic materials are those that can be easily magnetised and demagnetised and their primary use is to enhance and/or channel the flux produced by an electric current.  The extensive range of soft magnetics includes powder cores (iron and alloy), soft ferrites, strip wound cores (amorphous, nanocrystalline as well as silicon steel and nickel alloys), and wound components. 

Soft Magnetics Benefits

Many power supply designers are assessing the key benefits of the various soft magnetics materials.  Super-fast switching power supplies depend on high efficiency minimal size of components, so choosing the right magnetic solution is paramount for success.

Bunting’s engineering team specializes in identifying the best magnetic solution, for optimization of cost, size and performance.

“The demand for efficiency gains in power electronics has never been greater,” explained Andy Hayling, Bunting’s Technical Manager for Soft Magnetics.  “We have a range of products and depth of technical expertise to provide the optimum soft magnetics solution for any given application.  PCIM Europe gives us the perfect platform to meet industry experts and discuss enhanced electrical performance.”
