Recently, various applications of permanent-magnet(PM) electric motor have been more increased. Compared with the other electric motors, PM electric motor has cogging torque which results from the interaction between PM of rotor and slot-teeth structure of stator. Audible noise and vibration is caused by this cogging torque. So, the reduction of cogging torque is main designing goal of PM electric motor. The purpose of this paper is to realize the decrease of cogging torque using new experimental design and response surface analysis which is one of the statistical methodologies.
