Axial flux motors are commonly used in various applications, including traction. They have some noticeable benefits compared to the conventional permanent magnet motors, such as higher power/torque densities, torque-to-weight ratios, and geometrically higher aspect ratios. Axial flux motors with surface-mounted magnets have been the source of greater interest for many researchers and the most studied one in solar powered electric car applications.
Axial flux motors have wedge-shaped neodymium magnets or a complete ring neodymium magnet which is axially magnetized in sectors, on a back iron as rotor. In some case, wedge-shaped magnets are laminated (laminated magnets) to reduce overheating. Tengye Magnetic is a leading manufacturer of axial flux motor magnets and magnetic assemblies.
