- This paper demonstrates, for the first time, the ability to use additive manufacturing (AM) to produce novel electrical machine windings and the necessary algorithms used to shape the conductors to minimise AC losses. Industrial interest in the work has spurred relationships with AM machine manufacturers (Renishaw), AM print bureaus (3TAM, Hieta) and material scientists from Teesside University to develop high performance windings for low volume, high value markets and further this emerging field. The work has directly led to the award of an EPSRC first grant (EP/T02125X/1) to the author and two industry funded PhDs with automotive companies.
