In the race for higher power density and absolute reliability, High-Speed Traction Motors are facing unprecedented engineering challenges. As a specialized motor core customization factory, Youyou Company utilizes advanced Backlack (Self-bonding) technology to provide robust, efficient, and micron-level precision solutions for the next generation of traction systems.
At extreme operational frequencies, traditional methods like welding, interlocking, or riveting become "performance bottlenecks" due to three critical engineering failures:
Mechanical fasteners bridge the insulation layer between laminations, creating localized short-circuit paths that amplify iron losses exponentially as frequencies climb into the kHz range.
Rotor stacks at 20k+ RPM experience massive radial stress. Traditional interlocking points often suffer from material fatigue, leading to lamination separation and magnetic gap instability.
Air gaps in non-bonded stacks act as thermal barriers. Without a solid lamination-to-lamination conduction path, heat builds up rapidly in the stator, limiting peak torque duration.
Our proprietary Backlack process isn't just a coating; it’s a controlled thermal-mechanical bond that eliminates the trade-offs of traditional core assembly.
By removing physical interlocking protrusions, we maximize active magnetic material volume, significantly increasing power density in compact traction designs.
The 3-5μm polymer interface between layers acts as a high-frequency vibration absorber, effectively neutralizing the electromagnetic "whine" characteristic of traction motors.
Validated for cross-tensile strength >10MPa even at 180°C, our cores maintain monolithic integrity under the most extreme thermal cycles of heavy-duty hauling.
Precision Control: Digitally synchronized temperature-pressure-time (T-P-t) curves to ensure optimal B-stage to C-stage epoxy conversion.
Burr Management: High-speed carbide dies maintaining burr heights <0.02mm to prevent inter-laminar voltage breakdown.
Materials Excellence: Proven processing of ultra-thin NO silicon steel (0.1mm-0.2mm) and premium Cobalt-Iron alloys (e.g., Vacodur 49).

With decades of experience in precision motor core manufacturing, we specialize in custom stator and rotor laminations for the most demanding applications. Our capabilities include:
As an stator and rotor lamination bonding stack manufacturer in China, we strictly inspect the raw materials used to make the laminations.
Technicians use measuring tools such as calipers, micrometers, and meters to verify the dimensions of the laminated stack.
Visual inspections are performed to detect any surface defects, scratches, dents, or other imperfections that may affect the performance or appearance of the laminated stack.
Because disc motor lamination stacks are usually made of magnetic materials such as steel, it is critical to test magnetic properties such as permeability, coercivity, and saturation magnetization.
The stator winding is a fundamental component of the electric motor and plays a key role in the conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy. Essentially, it consists of coils that, when energized, create a rotating magnetic field that drives the motor. The precision and quality of the stator winding directly affects the efficiency, torque, and overall performance of the motor.
We offer a comprehensive range of stator winding services to meet a wide range of motor types and applications. Whether you are looking for a solution for a small project or a large industrial motor, our expertise guarantees optimal performance and lifespan.
Epoxy powder coating technology involves applying a dry powder which then cures under heat to form a solid protective layer. It ensures that the motor core has greater resistance to corrosion, wear and environmental factors. In addition to protection, epoxy powder coating also improves the thermal efficiency of the motor, ensuring optimal heat dissipation during operation.
We have mastered this technology to provide top-notch epoxy powder coating services for motor cores. Our state-of-the-art equipment, combined with the expertise of our team, ensures a perfect application, improving the life and performance of the motor.
Injection molding insulation for motor stators is a specialized process used to create an insulation layer to protect the stator's windings.
This technology involves injecting a thermosetting resin or thermoplastic material into a mold cavity, which is then cured or cooled to form a solid insulation layer.
The injection molding process allows for precise and uniform control of the thickness of the insulation layer, guaranteeing optimal electrical insulation performance. The insulation layer prevents electrical short circuits, reduces energy losses, and improves the overall performance and reliability of the motor stator.
In motor applications in harsh environments, the laminations of the stator core are susceptible to rust. To combat this problem, electrophoretic deposition coating is essential. This process applies a protective layer with a thickness of 0.01mm to 0.025mm to the laminate.
Leverage our expertise in stator corrosion protection to add the best rust protection to your design.
For high-volume production, silicon steel (0.20-0.35mm) remains the most cost-effective option. It offers an excellent balance of performance, manufacturability, and cost. For applications requiring better high-frequency performance, ultra-thin silicon steel (0.10-0.15mm) provides improved efficiency with only a moderate cost increase. Advanced composite laminations can also reduce total manufacturing cost through simplified assembly processes.
The choice depends on your specific requirements: Amorphous metals offer the lowest core losses (70-90% lower than silicon steel) and are ideal for applications where efficiency is paramount. Nanocrystalline cores provide a better combination of high permeability and low losses, along with superior temperature stability and mechanical properties. Generally, choose amorphous metals for maximum efficiency at high frequencies, and nanocrystalline cores when you need balanced performance across a wider range of operating conditions.
For premium EV applications where power density and efficiency are critical, cobalt-iron alloys like Vacodur 49 can provide significant advantages. The 2-3% efficiency gain and 20-30% size reduction can justify the higher material cost in performance-oriented vehicles. However, for mass-market EVs, advanced silicon steel grades often provide better overall value. We recommend conducting a total lifecycle cost analysis including efficiency gains, battery size reduction potential, and thermal management savings.
Advanced materials often require specialized manufacturing approaches: Laser cutting instead of stamping to prevent stress-induced magnetic degradation, specific heat treatment protocols with controlled atmospheres, compatible insulation systems that withstand higher temperatures, and modified stacking/bonding techniques. It's essential to involve material suppliers early in the design process to optimize both material selection and manufacturing approach.
The thickness of motor core lamination steel grades includes 0.05/0.10/0.15/0.20/0.25/0.35/0.5MM and so on. From large steel mills in Japan and China.

Yes, we offer OEM and ODM services. We have extensive experience in understanding motor core development.
The concept of rotor stator bonding means using a roll coat process that applies an insulating adhesive bonding agent to the motor lamination sheets after punching or laser cutting. The laminations are then put into a stacking fixture under pressure and heated a second time to complete the cure cycle. Bonding eliminates the need for a rivet joints or welding of the magnetic cores, which in turn reduces interlaminar loss. The bonded cores show optimal thermal conductivity, no hum noise, and do not breathe at temperature changes.
Absolutely. The glue bonding technology we use is designed to withstand high temperatures. The adhesives we use are heat resistant and maintain bond integrity even in extreme temperature conditions, which makes them ideal for high-performance motor applications.
Glue dot bonding involves applying small dots of glue to the laminates, which are then bonded together under pressure and heat. This method provides a precise and uniform bond, ensuring optimal motor performance.
Self-bonding refers to the integration of the bonding material into the laminate itself, allowing the bonding to occur naturally during the manufacturing process without the need for additional adhesives. This allows for a seamless and long-lasting bond.
Yes, bonded laminations can be used for segmented stators, with precise bonding between the segments to create a unified stator assembly. We have mature experience in this area. Welcome to contact our customer servic.
