The PM(Permanent Magnet) stepping Motor has been used widely to a variety of industries because of the open-loop control characteristic, a relatively large frequency range of velocity control and non-accumulated error of the step angle. Moreover, It has been gradually applied to office automation, machine intelligence, digital appliance, and automobile parts. This paper presents the optimal design results by use of the experimental method. The design variables of the PM stepping motor are shape of the claw-pole, material of core, and air-gap. As a result, a superior claw-pole PM stepping motor for OA machinery was developed.

This paper analyzes static and transient response characteristics of a permanent magnet type stepping motor with claw poles using three-dimensional finite element method. The outer diameter of the stepping motor to be analyzed is approximately 6 mm. In this paper we analyzes only 2 poles of the stepping motor, which has 10 magnetic poles made up of NdFeB material, using periodic boundary condition. We clarify transient response and static torque charateristics using Maxwell 3D and Matlab Simulink.

This paper presents a shape design process of Claw-Poles Stepping Motor(CPSM) using Modified Magnetic Equivalent Circuit Method(MMEC). Because this motor is adopted on low power devices, the motor size is a very small type. But it have a very strong permanent magnet. So magnetic saturation effect happens on yoke teeth of CPSM. Also this magnetic saturation effect causes more leakage flux component between yoke tooth have another pole. In this motor type, it is essential to design a shape of yoke teeth for avoiding the magnetic saturation effect and the leakage flux. In this paper, MMEC including the magnetic saturation effect and the leakage flux component was used for design process. Comparing with data calculated by using the MMEC and results analyzed by 3-D FEM, it could be stated that the design process with MMEC was reasonable. Finally, the model has the optimized shape of yoke teeth was compared with a conventional model for no-load Back EMF and torque at steady-state operation.

Motor & generator operation at widely variable speeds is needed in various applications but hybrid and electric vehicle (HEV) stand out today, as quite a few companies are launching this year their mass production of HEVs. The quest for better starter-generators is far from ended, though. The present review paper unfolds a comparative critical evaluation of various starter-generators and their control for HEV. Induction, interior PM synchronous, transverse-flux PM synchronous, switched reluctance, together with claw-pole and biaxial excitation PM synchronous (BEGA) configurations with their control are all considered in system evaluations.

Electric control of eddy coupling offers many new possibilities in process control and other industrial control applications. And a form of speed control for the load is affected for a system driven by costant frequency induction motor. This paper analysis speed-torque characteristic of the eddy-current coupling by using the 3-dimensional analytical method. Characteristic experiment is put into operation for the claw pole type eddy current coupling. Design procedure is presented based on the analysis.
