Introduction of Amorphous Alloy Magnetic Material

Manufacturing Process of Amorphous Metal Ribbon

A
F

C
D

1. Amorphous alloy
A melting alloy that has proper composition of metallic elements is extremely rapid quenched
at the rate of 106 per second, it is too fast to let the disordered atomic-scale structure become
crystalline in its solid state, as a result, amorphous alloy is to be formed. Its atom structure is nonordered and similar to the glass, therefore the amorphous alloy is also called glass metal. The
features of metallic elements and disordered non-crystalline structure make the amorphous alloy
own unique and superior properties.

2. Atom model

A: Raw materials are melted down in

induction furnace.
B: Melt is transferred to the feeder section.
C: Control of casting head.
D: Thin lm of melt is ejected onto the
rapid quenching wheel.
E: Jet is quenched at 106 per second to
form an amorphous strip.
F: Strip width & thickness are measured in
line and fed back for process control.
G: Strip is guided to the thread-up unit for
take-up.
H: Strip take-up.

CRGO Silicon steel
Amorphous core transformer not only
can reduce the power loss of the
power system but also can reduce
the power development costs and
fuel costs, potentially reducing CO2
emissions, reducing air pollution, acid
rain and greenhouse effects.

3. Performance of Amorphous alloy

The amorphous alloy posses excellent soft magnetic properties such as high saturation
magnetic, low coercivity and high permeability,
Non-crystalline has a high resistivity than crystalline, therefore, the eddy current loss that
generated when amorphous alloy is in the AC magnetisc field can be obviously reduced.
The very low core loss will be found when amorphous alloy is adopted for the core.
Good temperature stability.

is now belong to and manufactured by
Hitachi Metal a Japanese company.
Refer to the left manufacturing process
comparison, the amorphous ribbon is
extremely simple, its production process
does not consume large amount of
energy, therefore, we can say it is a
typical environmental friendly material.
On the contrary, the manufacturing
process of CRGO silicon steel is more
complicated, large energy is consumed
during the process, it is a high energyconsuming product.

Refer to the left gure for the

magnetization curves of amorphous
alloy ribbon and CRGO silicon steel.
The close areas surrounded by the
curves represent energy loss when
an alternate magnetic eld passes
through the magnetic materials.
It is obvious that the two areas of
amorphous and CRGO are quite
different, 70% ~ 80% difference
is found according to actual
measurement, i.e. the no load loss of
transformer can be reduced about
70% ~ 80% when CRGO silicon steel
is replaced with amorphous alloy

1. Amorphous alloy material consumes low energy.

2. Amorphous core us annealed at 360 and consumes
less energy.

1. Extra investment will be returned in 3 5 years.

2. The AMDT will continuously save the electricity and its
running cost after investment is returne.

Fast

1. Silicon steel production consumes higher energy.

2. Silicon steel core is annealed at 800 and consumes
higher energy.

The cost of CRGO transformer as a base data

The core loss of AMDT is very low, less heat is generated,

the operation temperature is low, therefore, the insulation
degradation is slow, and this will longer the operating life span of
the transformer.
Compared to CRGO, the excellent magnetic characteristics of
Amorphous alloy material makes the losses generated by high
frequencies just about 1/10, harmonic effects arising from the
Iron losses can also be reduced drastically.
1. Low consumption of energy in material process and low
losses of AMDT can save a lot of energy, therefore, less gases
such as SO2, CO2 and NOX are emitted from power plant,
environmental pollution can be substantially reduced.
2. When the life-span of Amorphous transformer ends, the
Amorphous alloy can be recycled, no environmental pollution
is created.
3. Energy saving is a main goal of ISO 14000.
Compared the total owning cost of AMDT with CRGO
transformers, the extra cost of Amorphous transformer paid by
the owner can be returned within 3-5 years.
