Ferrites - soft-magnetic ferrite cores (MnZn)

Ferrite materials

Materials Manganese/Zinc

Our ferrite materials BFM8 and BFM9 are ideally suited for applications in power electronics. These materials excel especially in a very low dissipation property at a frequency from up to 500 kHz.

We offer the materials BFM8 and BFM 9 in a wide range of core shapes like: E, EC, EFD, ELP, EP, ER, ETD, EVD, P-Cores (shell cores), Planar, PM, PQ, I, U, URR, RM, toroidal cores as well as ferrite plate or ferrite block.

These power ferrites are being used in switching power supplies, transformers, chokes, as ferrite modules (charging electronic for electric vehicles, for example as ferrite module in inductive energy transmission) or medical technology.

Our high permeable ferrite materials are available in BFM2k, BFM3k, BFM6k and BFM10k versions.

For further Information about out materials please refer to the corresponding data sheets.

Ferrite machining - our possibilities

Air gaps

• Inserting high-precision air gaps (grinding air gap) to mechanical dimensions (minimum tolerances) or AL-value
• Measuring/testing of ferrite cores according to different parameters: with our vast variety of measuring instruments (like LCR meter (4284A), Power Loss Tester (Blinzinger BVM20), Power Choke Test unit and climatic chamber) measurements can be performed in a wide frequency band or voltage range respectively and under operating on-load conditions.

More possibilities around ferrite cores

• Determine AL-value / calculate AL-value
• Determine air gap /calculate air gap
• Determine power loss (power loss measuring according to IEC 620-44-3 with the Blinzinger Power Loss Test unit BVM20)
• Manufacturing of customized new core shapes or sizes (e. g. for evaluation testing or pre-production sample)
• Reworking ferrites
• Separating ferrites, parting ferrites
• Separating rod ferrites, extending ferrite round bars
• Enlarging coil windows, inserting grooves or openings for cable bushings
• Large ferrite cores - manufacturing very large ferrite cores, e. g., for high-voltage transformers, power transformers, storage chokes
• Manufacturing very large ferrite cores, e. g., for high-voltage transformers, power transformers, storage chokes
• Bonding ferrites using adhesives especially suitable for this purpose
• Printing the cores with the data you need (such as AL-value, air gap, date of manufacture, etc.)
• Manufacturing of winding goods (measurement coils) for customized calibration of the ferrite cores
• Following customer request, items can be despatched in ESD packaging (trays or blister)
• Following customer request, quality control of the ferrite cores with digital microscope, e. g. for aerospace technology

And of course we also machine ferrite cores that you supply to us.

Assembly and mechanical loads of ferrite cores
Ferrite cores are subject to various loads during assembly and other applications. As a ceramic material ferrite cores are brittle and react strongly to mechanical shock - this has to be taken into consideration under mechanical loads.
Mechanical shock, like rapid changing tensile or pressure loads, rapid temperature changes, as well as high static or cyclic loads may lead to failures of the cores like cracks and breaks.

Warming
Ferrite cores might warm up during operation due to higher frequencies and increase of the magnetical flux density.

Effects of tensions in core combinations on the AL-value
The mechanical and also the magnetical properties can be influenced by tensions in the core. There is a dependency of the initial permeability and the state of stress of the core. The higher the tension in the core, the lower is the value of the initial permeability. Impregnating and potting compounds should therefore have an elasticity as large as possible. Mechanical loads to the cores through expansion of the impregnating and potting compounds under temperature interference should receive attention.

Individual customer applications
Usually Blinzinger Elektronik GmbH does not know individual applications of customers or is less familiar with it like the customer himself. Therefore, should be considered, that the customer himself has to evaluate and decide, whether Blinzinger Elektronik products are suitable/applicable for the particular individual application.
Please note that, according to the current state of technology, electronic components may have malfunctions and/or breakdowns before end of their usual operating life - even when operated according to specifications. This cannot be completely ruled out.
If a customer runs applications, which require a high level of operational safety (especially applications, which could constitute a hazard to the health and/or the life of humans or animals when an electronic component malfunctions and/or breaks down), the customer has to ensure - by appropriate means of construction of the application or by other actions provided by the customer - that no injury or damage is sustained by third parties in the event of malfunction or failure of an electronic component.

Please note:
For custom-made products or components deviating from the standard scope of supply the right of return or cancellation is excluded.
