Unicore Benefits
  • World leader in it's field.
  • Deployed in over 30 Countries!
  • Out sells direct competition by 10 to 1!
  • Modern, yet mature method of high or low volume manufacturing. Developed in 1997.
  • Combines the high efficiency of a “wound type” core with the cost and production benefits of laminations.

Each Unicore lamination is fully formed by the Unicore machine. The operator stacks these laminations to form the core. The core may be used to build a transformer immediately, without any further processing. For the lowest core loss, the Unicore should be annealed.

In short the benefits are:

  • Better quality cores - each lamination formed to high accuracy
  • Easy Assembly
  • No cutting, grinding, squishing
  • Tooling Free - instantly make any size or type of core no mandrels or jigs needed, sizes are quickly entered
  • Flexibility of core sizes and types - designers have options to reduce costs and increase customer's satisfaction.
  • Small shop floor requirements
  • Repeatable
  • The manufacturing process requires reduced space, consumables, inventories, labour and maintenance.
  • Low loss, low magnetising current, better regulation
  • Low machine costs (acquisition and maintenance)
  • Less core mass - less copper mass - for equivalent C, E core performance, less shipping costs
  • Price Competitive
  • Various core types and faces for reduced cost. Lower grades of GOSS or un-annealed cores may be supplied to reduce core cost.
  • Short lead times and reduced inventories are possible due to rapid production methods.
