Sino is a great choice for your laminations, we have many years of making the special tools (tooling expertise) to cut the metal shapes. We have made over 1,500 different tool designs! We handle the whole process: Stamping → annealing → grinding → assembly.
The material itself is a massive piece of the puzzle. Sino selects and processes premium-grade silicon steel (often called electrical steel) specifically for its superior magnetic properties and ability to further squash energy losses.
We have thin slices of special steel. But if you just stack them metal-on-metal, you’re almost back to square one. The eddy currents would just find sneaky paths across the lamination edges. That’s why the insulating layer between each lamination is absolutely critical, and at Sino, we ensure this insulation is robust and consistent.
To maximize the amount of active steel in the core (the “stacking factor”).
To withstand the pressures of stamping, stacking, and motor assembly.
To effectively block current flow between laminations.
To maintain its integrity throughout the motor’s operating life.
Sino employs various advanced coating technologies, including:
1
(often organic varnishes or epoxies): These provide excellent insulation, good adhesion, and can withstand significant temperatures. They are a popular choice for many Fan motor core laminations.
2
(enamels or inorganic coatings): Often selected for even higher temperature resilience or specific chemical resistance.
3
(like C-0 or “steam blueing”): A simpler, cost-effective option formed by controlled oxidation of the lamination surface, suitable for certain scenarios.
What does all this meticulous engineering mean for you and your products? It means tangible, bottom-line benefits:
This is the big kahuna. By slashing eddy current and hysteresis losses (collectively known as “core losses” or “iron losses”), Sino’s laminations ensure that more of the electrical energy you feed into the motor gets converted into useful spinning power. For the end-user, this means lower electricity bills. For the fan manufacturer, it means a product that can boast superior energy ratings.
Less wasted energy directly translates to less heat. A motor that runs cooler is a happier motor. It experiences less thermal stress on its windings and bearings, leading to a significantly longer operational lifespan and greater reliability. This is crucial for fans that run continuously or are embedded in critical systems.
Minimizing these unpredictable losses means the motor performs more closely to its design specifications across a wider range of loads and temperatures. No more surprise dips in airflow when things get a bit warm.
When a motor is more efficient, it might not need to be as bulky to produce the same power. Sino’s high-performance Fan motor core laminations can enable designers to create smaller, lighter fans without sacrificing oomph, opening doors for innovative product designs.
Excessive electrical noise and vibration can often be traced back to poorly managed magnetic fields and core losses. Well-designed and precisely manufactured laminations contribute to smoother, quieter motor operation – a key selling point for many fan applications, from bedroom ceiling fans to sensitive laboratory equipment.

It often starts with your vision. Our engineers can work from your existing fan motor stator designs or collaborate to develop optimized lamination profiles that maximize flux paths, minimize leakage, and fit your specific mechanical constraints. We utilize advanced magnetic modeling software to predict performance before a single piece of metal is cut.
Whether it’s high-speed progressive die stamping for mass production or precision laser cutting for prototypes and complex geometries, accuracy is paramount. Our tooling is maintained to exacting standards to ensure burr-free edges and consistent dimensions, lamination after lamination.
This controlled heat treatment process is vital for developing the ideal magnetic properties in silicon steel. Sino’s annealing furnaces feature precise temperature and atmospheric controls to ensure uniform grain growth and stress relief, unlocking the material’s full potential.
How the laminations are stacked is just as important as the laminations themselves. We utilize various techniques – including interlocking (for inherent rigidity), precision welding, or cleating – to create solid, dimensionally accurate stator and rotor cores. Our automated stacking lines ensure consistency and high throughput.
