CRGO Lamination

AMM Power Pvt. Ltd. is a trusted supplier of high-quality CRGO (Cold Rolled Grain Oriented) lamination for power and distribution transformers in India. We source premium-grade CRGO materials from globally renowned manufacturers in Japan, USA, Korea, Germany, and Russia, ensuring superior performance and efficiency in transformer cores.

AMM Power Pvt Ltd manufacturers, exporters and suppliers have own manufacturing and core slitting plant for CRGO lamination in India. We use different material & make as per customer required no-load losses, thickness, flux density and other technical specifications.
We supply CRGO lamination to many reputed transformer manufacturers worldwide.

Purpose of Laminations

Laminations are used in transformer cores to minimize energy losses caused by eddy currents. Eddy currents are loops of electric current induced within the core by the alternating magnetic field, which generate heat and waste energy. By using thin, insulated layers of magnetic material instead of a solid block, the formation of these currents is significantly reduced, thereby improving the transformer’s efficiency.

Technical Specifications

Characteristics of CRGO electrical steel are affected by impurities, grain size, grain orientation and surface insulation. Even minor stresses, burrs, edge cambers or bends can increase core losses and magnetizing current significantly. Jay Bee Laminations Limited has the facilities to ensure proper handling and stress free processing of the material.
