Available Technologies

The lack of real-time insights into how materials evolve during laser powder bed fusion has limited the adoption by inhibiting part qualification.  The developed approach provides key data needed to fabricate born qualified parts.

Technologies are described directed to package Integration of rotor position sensor in rotary transformer.

Technologies directed to integration of an inductive position sensor in a rotary transformer are described.

Technologies directed to a direct rotor current measurement for transformer-fed wound rotor machine are described.

Technologies are described that are directed to polyphase rotary transformer for field excitation of electric machines.

Distortion generated during additive manufacturing of metallic components affect the build as well as the baseplate geometries. These distortions are significant enough to disqualify components for functional purposes.

Technologies directed to an LCC based induction cooktop architecture for non-ferromagnetic pan are described.

For additive manufacturing of large-scale parts, significant distortion can result from residual stresses during deposition and cooling. This can result in part scraps if the final part geometry is not contained in the additively manufactured preform.

Wireless charging of electric vehicles require the ability to control the output current in the power transfer system, but that is often not possible as the availability of signals from the secondary side to the primary side is difficult and not always feasible.
