Abstract

Electric machines are an essential element to the electrification of

industry and mobility for achieving a sustainable economy. Particularly important

are the resource-efficient production of stator and rotor sheet packages and the

reduction of iron losses during operation. The screen printing technology enables

the production of very thin magnetic sheet laminations in near net shape geometry

and thereby minimization of material waste in production. Simultaneously the

efficiency of electric motors in use will be increased by reduced eddy current and

hysteresis losses due to decreasing sheet thickness and avoided mechanical stress

in the manufacturing process. In addition, screen printing enables multi-material

components and variable alloy compositions. This paper presents the requirements

of the screen printing process for magnetic sheets and identifies the relevant influencing

factors and printing parameters to achieve the product specifications in

multiple iterations and using universal statistical design of experiments methods.

The target parameters investigated are cycle-time, green part weight, roundness,

and layer thickness.
