Robotics & high-speed motors

Radial multi-pole rings for smooth, compact robot joints.

Mainrich manufactures sintered NdFeB radial rings, hollow-cup motor magnets, laminated assemblies, and rotor magnet sets for humanoid joints, cobots, servo motors, and high-speed BLDC programs. Evaluate each program by the real engineering variables: geometry, waveform, tolerance, and traceability.

Field quality

Why radial multi-pole technology matters.

Standard radially oriented rings align grains in straight spokes, which can produce a saddle-shaped air-gap flux profile. Radial multi-pole rings use orientation tooling that curves the grain direction between poles, improving surface-flux utilization and waveform smoothness.

That difference is visible in the motor: less torque ripple, less audible noise, less vibration, and less correction work for the controller.

Curved grain orientation

The easy axis bends between poles instead of pointing in straight spokes, pushing useful flux toward the working air gap.

Sinusoidal surface field

A smoother waveform reduces cogging torque, vibration, and controller compensation work in humanoid and cobot joints.

Single-piece balance

No adhesive joints between arc magnets means fewer flux discontinuities and better mechanical balance at speed.

Architecture choice

Three magnet paths for different motor programs.

Robotics, EV auxiliary drives, and appliance motors do not need the same magnet architecture. The job is to match the ring geometry to torque smoothness, heat, cost, and production scale.

Best for robotics

Radial multi-pole rings

Single sintered rings with curved grain orientation. Use them when torque smoothness, actuator compactness, and repeatable flux mapping matter.

Best for high speed

Laminated assemblies

Thin insulated layers suppress eddy-current heating for high-RPM motors, drones, vacuums, and compact power-dense drives.

Best for flexible builds

Segmented ring assemblies

Arc segments bonded into a rotor ring. Useful when tooling flexibility, size range, or lower initial investment is the deciding factor.

Product range

Product range by motor decision.

Each row maps to the engineering decision buyers actually need: where it fits, how it is built, and what spec carries the risk.

Precision manufacturing

Tight geometry keeps the joint quiet.

Robotics applications are highly sensitive to air-gap variation. We control the mechanical center, magnetic center, bore fit, and surface flux together, because a good ring on a poor tolerance stack still creates actuator risk.
