Once the exact materials are selected, these basic parts will be machined to a very high precision....
Nd60 rare-earth is a shiny metal and it will stay that way once the SEG is operational....
Rare-earth metal is expensive and must be kept in an inert gas to prevent rapid oxidation....
This SEG stator ring consists of 12 arc tiles to form a complete magnetic layer from pressed powder....
Basically the SEG consists of rare-earth, dielectric, magnetic, and copper powders....
The SEG consists of four materials and these samples are prepared for pressing with steel dies....
Many blends of materials have been press-formed into rings and rounds from powders....
