Transformer Cores Market: Overview

A transformer core is static equipment transmitting power from source to destination via electromagnetic induction. It is a key magnetic circuit path. Furthermore, they are parts of magnetic material having high magnetic permeability used for assisting magnetic fields across transformers. Moreover, transformers work under mutual induction principle and transformer core possess less reluctance and latter opposes magnetic flux flow. Transformer core are made up of various materials such as steel laminated cores, toroidal cores, and solid cores. Transformer cores are of different kinds and they are step up transformer, step down transformer, and isolated transformer.

The magnetic core is an essential component in transformers. These cores are typically some form of steel or iron and serve as a pathway for magnetic flux. There are many types of magnetic cores that are well suited for various purposes. Different types of transformer cores include solid iron/steel core, laminated silicon steel core and amorphous steel cores. The electrical power transformer has primary, secondary and may be tertiary windings. The performance of a transformer mostly depends on the flux linkages among these windings. For efficient flux linking among these windings, one low reluctance magnetic path common to all windings is provided in the transformer. This low reluctance magnetic path is referred as the core of the transformer.

Increasing expansion activities in transmission and distribution network projects is expected to drive the global transformers market. This will, in turn, propel the demand for transformers core in the years to come. Transformer core market has witnessed substantial growth in the recent past on account of escalating government investment in renewable power projects and rapid urbanization and industrialization. However, pricing pressures on transformer manufacturers coupled with an increase in raw material costs may curtail the growth of the market in the foreseeable future.
