Wound Core & Windings
The Wound Core and Windings product is a specialised type of transformer core manufactured by winding grain-oriented electrical steel tape in a spiral around a mandrel, creating a robust cylindrical structure. This construction offers several advantages over other types of transformer cores. By minimising eddy currents and reducing heating, wound cores ensure greater efficiency and reliability in power transmission and distribution systems.
After winding, the cores undergo annealing in a controlled atmosphere of hydrogen/nitrogen. This annealing process optimises the magnetic properties of the cores, enhancing their performance and stability under varying load conditions. The annealed cores are then encased in protective housings to shield them from mechanical stresses and external magnetic fields, ensuring prolonged operational life and maintaining magnetic integrity. Wound cores are widely used in high-efficiency transformers for applications ranging from power generation to distribution networks. Their design versatility and superior magnetic characteristics make them indispensable in modern electrical infrastructure, meeting stringent industry standards for performance and reliability.

Wound Core & Windings FAQs
A wound core differs from other cores because it is made by winding a continuous strip of magnetic material into a coil. In contrast, other cores are typically solid pieces of magnetic material.
Wound Cores are flexible in design and construction. These can be customised according to the shape and size for specific applications.
Wound cores contribute to energy efficiency by allowing for precise customisation of core geometry, which minimises core losses and improves overall transformer efficiency.
Several factors should be considered while choosing a wound core. Magnetic properties, Size and shape, Cost-effectiveness, Environmental considerations, etc.
