About

SRM is a permanent magnet-free motor, it uses aluminium, steel and copper as materials. SRM avoids any rare earth material usage. SRM materials are abundantly available in India, and common extracted with well optimized processes, enabling Make-In-India. Higher temperature of operation, simpler rotor construction, low assembly complexity are other advantages. The stator poles are steel laminates with copper coils, rotor poles are just steel laminates.
