It introduces that silicon steel sheet is an iron-silicon soft magnetic alloy with extremely low carbon content, and the silicon content is generally 0.5% - 4.5%. Its production process is complex, and it is known as a craft in steel products. It is mainly used to make iron cores of transformers, motors and generators. The article also covers the origin and performance requirements of silicon steel sheets, pointing out that low iron loss of silicon steel sheets is an important indicator. Moreover, as the silicon content increases, the iron loss, punchability and magnetic induction decrease, while the hardness increases. The higher the operating frequency, the thinner the silicon steel sheet should be selected.
Main Applications
Silicon steel sheet cores have advantages such as good magnetoelectric properties, ease of mass production, low cost, and minimal influence from mechanical stress. They are widely used in the power electronics industry, including cores of power transformers, distribution transformers, current transformers, etc. They are also the most used magnetic materials for power transformers, and are most suitable for low-frequency and high-power applications.
