Stator laminations for magnetic induction train - has hollow track sections stamped out and braced by struts

摘要

The tracked ACV train is propelled and supported by magnetic fields with a stator array in the track and with electro magnetic control on the train. The stators are made from stacks of laminations braced by metal struts and bolted to the track sections. The stator packs are bolted to the track on slots so that accurate adjustment is possible to align the stators with the track and vehicle. They are produced cheaply from a simple stamping with the lamination shapes interdigitated for low material loss.
