Skew

1. Overview

MAGNET – SKEW design area
1	Selection of the ROTOR subset: MAGNET panel (Click on the icon MAGNET).
2	SKEW tab indicates the tools to define the rotor (magnet) skewing angle.
3	Visualization of the motor radial view with magnet topology and dimensions.
4	Visualization of the rotor developed view to visualize the rotor (magnet) skewing.
5	Choices to define a skew: None – Continuous (Continuous in our example).
6	Skew inputs to be defined.
7	Buttons to restore the default input values (Pressing the “enter key” twice applies inputs too).
8	Buttons to validate the inputs (Pressing the “enter key” twice applies inputs too).
9	Skew outputs (read only).
10	Button to export the skew data into *.txt or *.xls files.

2. Set a skew angle

How to set a skew angle?
1	Choose the definition mode of the skew: Stator slot – Rotor slot – Shift angle.
2	Definition of the skew angle depending of the definition mode.
3	Visualization of the chosen skew angle on the machine radial view.
4	Visualization of the equivalent axial slot angle on the rotor developed view.
5	Equivalent axial rotor slot angle (read only).
6	Equivalent stator slot pitch (read only).
7	Equivalent rotor slot pitch (read only).
