Using Fluxtrol greatly reduces the labor intensive task of stacking and attaching
laminations individually. All FLUXTROL® & FERROTRON® materials, being
solid in form, eliminate the degradation/corrosion build up that is common
between individual laminations. Lamination degradation can result in coil failure
or changes to the heat pattern. Another significant benefit of FLUXTROL® &
FERROTRON® materials is that they can be easily machined. This includes in–field
modification when necessary which is not possible with individual laminations.
Induction Coils Perform Better
- Improved coil lifetime with Fluxtrol LRM versus laminations due to reduced copper thermal racheting.
- No overheating in the presence of 3D magnetic fields.
- Fluxtrol LRM covers more of the inductor for greater efficiency.
- Fluxtrol LRM can be positioned without keepers for enhanced heat pattern control.
Fluxtrol LRM Benefits
Fluxtrol concentrator features include (but not limited to) the following:
- Cost effective alternative to laminations with fast delivery.
- Less construction time versus laminations.
- Available in near–net shapes and finished to size.
- Copper operates at lower temperatures with Fluxtrol LRM versus laminations.

Fluxtrol LRM for Low and Medium Frequency Applications
View Technical Data
Ideal for low and medium frequency applications (.05–30kHz). Highest magnetic
permeability in the Fluxtrol LRM family of materials. Material has
excellent mechanical strength, thermal conductivity and good machinability.
Fluxtrol LRM – Medium Frequency for Medium Frequency Applications
View Technical Data
Excellent performance over a wide range of frequencies (10–500kHz). Ideal
magnetic permeability for low and medium frequency applications, yet offers
the highest resistivity in the Fluxtrol LRM family of materials in medium
frequency applications. Material has excellent mechanical strength, machinability
and good thermal conductivity.
Fluxtrol Lamination Replacement Material (LRM)
Fluxtrol LRM utilizes the anisotropic nature of the magnetic
composite material to maximize flux concentrator and
induction coil performance
Optimal orientation of material in C–shaped concentrator
provides high permeability, lower losses and:
- Magnetic and thermal properties are higher in the direction perpendicular to pressing.
- Electrical strength is higher in direction of pressing
Induction Coil Runs Cooler with Fluxtrol LRM
