SHRINK FIBER SLEEVE

SHRINK FIBER RETENTION SLEEVE

HIGH EFFICIENT SOLUTION FOR  BLDC BRUSHLESS MOTORS

Multi-layer heat-shrink tubing with high mechanical resistance and high thermal coefficient,
to fix and protect against centrifugal forces of all types of permanent magnets applied on the rotors of BLDC brushless motors.

An innovative and unique system that enables the manufacturers of brushless motors with permanent magnets to position and secure them effectively, safely and easy to use in automatic industrial productions.

This innovative system eliminates a series of problems well known to brushless motor manufacturers and relating to loss of performance, complications of assembly processes and higher costs, due to use of traditional permanent magnet attachment systems.

The SHRINK FIBER multilayer tubular high efficiency solution is unique because it includes all the advantages of perfect adhesion even at the edges of the rotor due to the heat-shrink polyester, with the added benefits of extremely high mechanical strength and temperature resistance offered by glass fiber.

As a matter of fact, our solution contains a special composite fiber which exponentially increases the mechanical seal and resistance to temperature compared with simple polyester.

The SHRINK FIBER tubing is inserted on the rotor with the magnets in position and heat shrunk, obtaining strong adherence, even at high revolution speeds. It is also resistant to the thermal shock produced by the motor in lengthy operation, up to 180°C.

Compared with very expensive metallic rotor sleeves, our high efficiency solution avoids eddy-current losses that reduce motors efficiency and that may cause also overheat of electric machines.

Compared with tubing and wrapping which use epoxy resins, the SHRINK FIBER heat-shrink solution offers greater mechanical resistance and avoids lengthy resin activation times in the oven; this increases dramatically our customers’ motors productivity.

In motors which use Bonded magnets (NdFeB or Ferrite) obtained through compression or injection moulding, the SHRINK FIBER tubing protects the magnetic material against corrosion.

As a matter of fact SHRINK FIBER TUBE is easy to be removed if permanent magnets have to be recycled.

Due to its limited thickness, which ranges between 0.19 – 0.35 mm, the SHRINK FIBER sleeve guarantees the correct magnetic flux best of permanent magnets and therefore the best performance of the motor itself.

The system patented  is simple and efficient and is already an integral part of the production processes of leading companies operating in the electrical motor sector.

The SHRINK FIBER heat-shrink system can be introduced into automatic construction processes and on motor assembly lines, eliminating the critical aspects of traditional tightening systems and the waiting times for adhesives to harden, allowing shorter assembly times and lower electrical motor costs.
