USA Rare Earth plans to start up neodymium magnet production next year at its plant in Stillwater, Oklahoma and to be supplying it with rare earth feedstock mined at its own Round Rock property in Texas in late 2025 or early 2026, reports CEO Tom Schneberger to Magnetics Magazine. […]
Flush on the closing of its acquisition by an investment consortium, Hitachi Metals tomorrow becomes Proterial as it positions for its NMF 15 ferrite magnets to become an alternative in certain situations to the industry-standard neodymium magnetic material for electric vehicle traction motors. […]
The automotive supplier MAHLE has developed a traction motor which is unique on the market and can run indefinitely with high performance. A new cooling concept makes this technological leap possible. […]
Using its molded MagFine alloy, Aichi Steel reports that it has developed in collaboration with Tohoku University an experimental e-axle that is 40% lighter and smaller than conventional designs. It combines a newly developed compact high-speed reducer with a compact and lightweight 34,000 rpm motor. For the first time, says the company, it has succeeded in proofing the technology of a high-speed, high-reduction next-generation electric axle with high-speed rotation and high deceleration that contributes to weight reduction.

Amidst skyrocketing prices for neodymium rare earths, with $30 million in new funding from the Australian government, and with South Korea stepping up to position itself as a favored buyer, Arafura Resources is gaining momentum […]
Permanent magnets (PM) are the heart of the drive systems used in the e-Mobility industry. The stronger the magnet is, the higher the higher the motor’s output and the smaller and lighter the motor can be built. But a powerful magnet must also be able to resist demagnetization by heat or a magnetic opposite field. The Dutch company Bakker Magnetics uses two new techniques with which permanent magnets can be produced even stronger and more robust: Grain Boundary Diffusion (GBD) and Grain Refining Technology (GRT). Major advantage: less Heavy Rare Earth Elements (HREE) are used. […]
By 2030 annual production of EVs is expected to increase roughly ten-fold to 25-30 million, creating a need to more than double global supply of the rare earth elements, neodymium and praseodymium (NdPr), to meet the EV traction motor market requirement.
