Impulse Winding Testers Market: Introduction
- The impulse coil-winding tester tests the electrical characteristics of coil winding without damaging the sample. The essential condition for quality of a coil can be detected easily using impulse winding testers.
- The detection is carried out when the same electric impulse by capacitor discharge is applied to the test coils and the master. The voltage decay waveform is generated in response to the impulse in correspondence with Q-factor and inductance of the coil. In this process, the tester can detect turn and layer short, the differences in the number of turns and the material of the core. If high impulse voltage is applied to the circuit, poor insulation would appear as a corona or layer discharge.
- Impulse winding testers offer 12-bit resolution, suits both conventional winding materials such as wound stators and winding materials in the field of e-mobility such as hairpin stators
- These feature makes impulse winding testers most significant for mining, automotive, power & energy industries driving the market
Growing Adoption from Power & Energy Industry
- Based on end-use industry, the global impulse winding testers market is segmented into power & energy, automotive & transportation, aerospace & defense, metals & mining, chemicals, water & wastewater treatment, food & beverage, oil & gas, and others (pulp & paper, marine, etc.)
- Power & energy is expected to be the fastest-growing end-use industry for impulse winding testers during the forecast period due to their increasing utilization for non-destructive high voltage pulse and testing the number of turns, short circuits between coils, coil welding failures, corona discharge, and insulation errors among other issues
- Impulse winding testers are used in testing by electric motor winding manufacturers to improve the motor’s quality. These testers meet the needs of more reliable motor windings in light of the expanding usage of electric vehicles and self-driving technology, which is expected to be a prominent driving factor for the impulse winding testers market in the power & energy industry.
Asia Pacific to Lead the Global Impulse Winding Testers Market
- In terms of region, the global impulse winding testers market is divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America
- Asia Pacific is expected to hold the largest share of the global impulse winding testers market throughout the forecast period due to increasing demand from the power & energy, automotive & transportation, water & wastewater treatment, food & beverages, and oil & gas industries
- Impulse winding testers are widely utilized in the detection of the existence of layer shorts between coil windings, defects that are found in motor inductors. A master waveform is taken from a reference coil after applying an impulse voltage and comparing it to the measured waveform across a specific interval of the coil. This coil, when under test, is utilized to find out the resulting area difference that can assist in finding pass or fail easily and accurately. Additionally, quantification of response waveforms allows to detect even single-turn faults by using a pass/fail distribution plot.
- Rising industrialization & urbanization, proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT), and increased investments in advanced factory automation and Industry 4.0 solutions are some prominent factors stimulating the impulse winding testers market in North America.
- The market in North America and Europe is expected to expand at a significant rate during the forecast period due to growing demand for impulse winding testers from a wide range of industries such as metals & mining, chemicals, and water & wastewater treatment. Moreover, the market is anticipated to be driven by leading countries such as the U.S., Spain, Italy, Germany, France, and Canada. The market in Middle East & Africa and South America is anticipated to expand at a steady rate during the forecast period.
