NIPPON KINZOKU Group’s Ultra-thin Electrical Steel Strips Realize Low Loss and Downsizing of Renewable Energy Power System and the High Frequency Inverter

TOKYO–(BUSINESS WIRE)– NIKKINDENJI KOGYO CO., LTD., our subsidiary, is the only one manufacturer of the Ultra-thin Electrical Steel Strips (3% silicon steel) with the thickness less than 0.1mm in Japan. We have over 50 years of experience in production and sales of Ultra-thin Electrical Steel Strips. And we design cores and various reactors through many years of cultivated design technology, and offer those products including prototypes. Recently, the needs for low loss and downsizing rise in the renewable energy electric power market and the high frequency inverter market. So our Ultra-thin Electrical Steel Strips earn the domestic as well as the foreign customer’s trust.

Grain Oriented Electrical Steel Strip (GT Series): It has high magnetic flux density and contributes to downsizing of reactors. Non Grain Oriented Electrical Steel Strip (ST Series): It has low core loss and high magnetic flux density. (Graphic: Business Wire)

Features

(1)	Eco products It has very low iron loss in the high frequency range, and contributes to higher efficiency and energy saving of high frequency transformers and high frequency reactors.
(2)	High magnetic flux density With high magnetic flux density in frequency 400 Hz-40 kHz compared with other materials, it can realize downsizing of the reactors.
(3)	High magnetic permeability It has high magnetic permeability and can be applied to shielding materials.
(4)	Excellent insulation coating With an excellent inorganic insulating coating, it enables “distortion annealing” to make the best use of the material characterization.
