Whitepaper: How to design a quiet electric motor

Add bookmark

The automotive industry has been working for many years to minimize noise within the passenger compartment.

Reducing the sound produced by various accessory motors is part of the solution on which suppliers to OEMs are focusing.

Understanding the causes of noise generation and the techniques to mitigate them are a critical part of motor design considerations.

Typically, noise produced by an electric motor is due to the following reasons:

  • Electromagnetics
  • Mechanical structure
  • Aerodynamics

Cogging torque is one of the most prominent electromagnetic causes of noise generation in a motor.

In this whitepaper, you will learn in detail how these variables can have a significant impact on motor design, and solutions for how to solve them.

In addition, the paper includes full contact details for the team of experts at Magnequench. The firm works alongside customers to reduce or eliminate electromagnetic causes of noise in new or existing electric motor designs.
