Halbach Cladding Magnets for Reduced End-Effect Losses in Magnetic Gears
TS-074823 —
Magnetic gears offer compelling advantages over mechanical gearboxes (contactless torque transfer, reduced maintenance, and improved reliability) but widespread adoption has been limited by efficiency losses. A major contributor is “end-effect” loss, where magnetic flux leaks at the axial ends…
