Cold Rolled Non Grain Oriented Silicon Steel Strips For Magnetic Transformer

Electrical steel is classified into two types: Non-oriented (NO) electrical steel and Grain-oriented (GO) electrical steel. NO steel is widely used in motors and generators, in which the magnetization direction is rotated in the sheet plane. GO is mainly used as a core material of transformers, in which the magnetization direction is unidirectional.

Non-Oriented Electrical Steel is manufactured as to render magnetic properties almost uniform in any direction of the coil. Used mainly for medium and large rotating machines, and small transformers.
● Exhibits almost uniform and excellent magnetic properties in all directions of a steel sheet.
● Typical applications: motors, generators, audio transformers, reactors, magnet switches, ballasts, magnetic fields, and electromagnets for accelerators

Grain-Oriented Electrical Steel is an electrical steel in which the easy magnetization direction of the grain is parallel to the rolling direction and the silicon content is about 3%.
● Exhibits excellent magnetic properties in one direction (the rolling direction) of the steel sheet
● Features excellent magnetic properties, including high magnetic flux density, low iron loss, and low magnetostriction
● Typical applications: power transformers, distribution transformers, audio transformers, current and potential transformers, medium to large generators, reactors, and magnetic shields.
