Resources
Technical specification, validation, and sourcing guidance for OEM engineering and procurement teams.
Use this category to review practical procurement and engineering patterns. Each article is written to reduce ambiguity in RFQ, validation, and production release decisions.
Instead of generic theory, these posts focus on what buyers can send, measure, and approve in supplier communication.
In practical sourcing programs, this category is most useful when its article checklists are copied into internal review templates and then reused in supplier calls, sample sign-off notes, and PO release approvals.
These articles are sorted by publish date and are intended to be used as reusable inputs for your engineering and procurement handoffs.

Review AFPM motor air gap tolerancing, thermal stack and rotor deflection with a worked clearance budget, factory shimming workflow and supplier RFQ checklist.
Compare stator potting resins for yokeless AFPM motors by thermal conductivity, Tg, adhesion, and process risk. Use the RFQ checklist to plan validation.
Compare rotor position sensors for axial flux motors: resolvers, inductive rings, and magnetic encoders. Define error and runout budgets, then plan your OEM RFQ.
Compare high-speed axial flux rotor magnet retention, carbon fiber sleeves, hoop stress and thermal fit. Use the RFQ checklist to define qualification evidence.
Compare direct oil cooling in axial flux motors, fluid compatibility, churning losses and stator potting. Use the RFQ checklist to request supplier evidence.
AFPM motor bearing selection: compare axial loads, thermal preload drift and L10h fatigue life. Use the RFQ checklist to request an engineering review.
