Market Overview:
An electric motor core is an integral part of an electric motor which functions as a magnetic circuit and is used to produce torque. It provides a low reluctance path for magnetic flux and helps in aligning the magnetic lines of flux in the rotor and stator. Electric motor cores are made from soft magnetic materials like silicon steel to reduce the reluctance. They come in different shapes and sizes depending upon the type and application of electric motors.
Market key trends:
One of the major trends driving the growth of the electric motor core market is the rising adoption of renewable energy sources globally. Electric motors are used in various renewable energy systems like wind turbines, hydroelectric power generators etc. to convert energy into rotational mechanical power. With renewable energy becoming more cost competitive and governments pushing clean energy initiatives, demand for electric motors from renewable sources is expected to increase significantly over the coming years. This will augment the demand for electric motor cores from renewable energy applications. Additionally, technological advancements to improve motor efficiency through better core material and designs is also fueling market growth.
The global Electric Motor Core Market Share is estimated to be valued at US$ 18.97 Billion or Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 8.4% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
