Research and development

Environmental management
system
Orb Electrical Steels Ltd recognises that the
protection of the environment is a key priority
of the company and this ideal is fully
integrated into all aspects of the business. The
Environmental Management System of Orb
Electrical Steels Ltd has been approved by
Lloyds Register Quality Assurance to the
Environmental Management System Standard
BS EN ISO 14001 applicable to the design and
manufacture of electrical steels.
Orb Electrical Steels Ltd draws on the

extensive technical support of the Technical,
Research and Development Group of
Cogent Power Ltd. The company has invested
heavily in new plant and in the development
and installation of on-line sensors.
In particular, Cogent Power Ltd is a world
leader in the technology of on-line sensors
and all material at Orb is monitored at
specified points through the production
process.
Additionally, the power loss of the steel strip
is measured continuously at the final
inspection stage to ensure a product which
has consistent magnetic properties over the
total length of the strip. Continual research
into the optimization of the processing
variables has resulted in a product of low
residual stress which is suited to the modern
production techniques employed in the
electrical machine construction industry

Note 1: J represents the peak magnetic polarization in Teslas. H represents the peak magnetic
field strength in A/m.
Note 2: The grades marked* do not appear in the EN standard designation.
Note 3: The grades marked # are enhanced lower loss high permeability grades. The final
processing to achieve these values of specific total loss may include a ball unit domain
refinement treatment. This process imparts a defined stress treatment to the surface
of the sheet which is not visible and does not cause a deterioration of the surface
insulation coating. Accordingly, these grades of material should not be subjected to a
stress relief anneal treatment. The specific total losses are measured by the single
sheet method of IEC 60404-3.
Specific total loss
Magnetic properties
Single sheet tests
Certificate of magnetic testing
The specific total loss of grain oriented

electrical steels may increase if the steel sheet
retains a degree of internal stress after final
processing. These stresses may be removed by
subjecting the cut transformer laminations to a
stress relief anneal. However, the modern
production processes and controls for Unisil
and Unisil-H realise a product with very low
levels of internal stress. The material has loss
characteristics that are so close to its best
potential value that annealing of wide strip by
the customer is becoming less common.
The magnetic properties of every coil of Unisil

and Unisil-H are reported by the Magnetic
Testing Laboratory in the Certificate of
Magnetic Testing. In addition to the specific
total loss at the guarantee level of peak
magnetic flux density ( J = 1,5 T, or 1,7 T),
measurements are taken of the specific
apparent power, magnetic field strength and
permeability. The Certificate of Magnetic
Testing includes these data so that the
customer receives, as well as confirmation of
the loss guarantee, a comprehensive summary
of the loss and magnetic properties for each
slit coil of material that is purchased.
Specific total loss values based on annealed

Epsteins may be less relevant to the user than
losses measured on single sheets which have
been tested in the non-stress relief annealed
condition. Therefore, Orb Electrical Steels Ltd
also samples and tests all coils of Unisil and
Unisil-H in the single sheet non-annealed
condition.
The method of measurement of the power
loss in single sheet test specimens of
dimensions 500 mm x 500 mm is that
described by IEC 60404-3. It is of key
importance that this standard is being revised
to incorporate an informative annex to
correlate single sheet and Epstein tests on
grain oriented material. The range of conversion factors which is declared in the draft
standard IEC 60404-3 Annex C has been
accepted by Orb Electrical Steels Ltd to
produce Epstein test results from single sheet
measurements.
Therefore, where power loss data are required
from single sheet tests as, for example, in the
case of domain refined material the method
of IEC 60404-3 Annex C will be followed.
UKAS Accreditation
The magnetic measurement systems employed
at Orb Electrical Steels Ltd are traceable to
national references of measurement
through the Standards Laboratory of
the Technical, Research and
Development Group. This laboratory
is accredited as United Kingdom
Accreditation Service (UKAS)
Calibration Laboratory No 0082 for
the measurement of power loss in
electrical steel strip. The laboratory is
authorized to issue UKAS certificates
0082
which are accepted internationally.

Insulation coatings
Magnetostriction
Magnite and Magnite-S are heat resistant

insulation coatings applied to Unisil and
Unisil-H respectively. The coatings are
approximately 3 microns thick per side and
provide good electrical resistance with only a
marginal effect on stacking factor. The
coatings have good adherence properties and
will withstand normal punching operations.
The coatings give some protection against
corrosion and are unaffected by, and in turn
do not affect, transformer oil.
The magnetostriction coefficient of the

transformer core lamination is a significant
parameter in determining the acoustic noise
output of the transformer. The Magnite and
Magnite-S coatings are beneficial in controlling
the magnetostriction of the material by
imparting a tensile stress to the steel.
Magnite-S applies a greater degree of control
to Unisil-H which results in a product of lower
magnetostriction.

Annealing by the customer

Unisil and Unisil-H are sensitive to strains
imposed by shearing, punching and handling.
Careful processing and the use of correctly
adjusted sharp tungsten carbide tools and
blades are necessary to minimize the
introduction of residual stresses which can
cause a marked deterioration in the specific
total loss. In general, the stress relief annealing
of strip wider than 200 mm will result in a loss
improvement of 2 % to 3 %. At slit widths of
less than 200 mm fabrication stresses can
cause a significant increase in specific total loss
and it may be advisable for the customer to
carry out a stress relief anneal as the last
operation before assembly into a core. Several
methods of stress relief annealing are available.
Batch annealing (760C to 840C,

typically 800C 20C)
The material is packed carefully into an inner

cover before annealing for two hours at the
specified temperature in a dry atmosphere.
Excessive temperature gradients during the
heating and cooling cycles must be avoided in
order to prevent lamination distortion. It
should be noted that the size of the lamination will influence the duration of the
annealing cycle.
Mesh belt annealing (800C 10C)
Stacks of laminations are annealed in a mesh

belt furnace when it is required that they are
held at the specified temperature for about
one hour.
Annealed laminations are subject to
distortion, but this may be controlled by
adjustment of the stack height and cooling
rate in the inert atmosphere.
Roller hearth annealing (800C 10C)
Roller hearth annealing (30 to 60 seconds at

the specified temperature in an air
atmosphere) of single laminations should
result in the laminations being stress free and
non-oxidised (the rapid anneal prevents
oxidation).
Annealing of wound toroidal cores

Wound toroidal cores may be annealed in
batch furnaces or in mesh belt furnaces under
the conditions described above. It is
important that the cores are not excessively
stressed during winding and that they are not
subjected to rapid rates of cooling.
Note: It is important to avoid

carbonaceous and oxidising
conditions which would
result in the magnetic
properties of the laminations
being impaired. Advice and
guidance on the correct
annealing practices for Unisil and Unisil-H are available
from the Technical, Research
and Development Group,
Cogent Power Ltd.
