    Abstract: A permanent magnet rotor can include a rotor body and at least one magnet. The rotor body can include at least one rotor cavity. The at least one magnet includes, in part, Mn—Bi particles and the at least one magnet can be either a sintered magnet or a polymer bonded magnet. The at least one magnet can be located, at least partially, in the at least one rotor cavity. Further, the at least one magnet can be installed in the at least one rotor cavity after forming the at least one magnet or the at least one magnet can be formed in the at least one rotor cavity using a mold. Moreover, the polymer bonded magnet can include a composite of polymer matrix and Mn—Bi particles.

    Abstract: A conduit seal that serves to connect conduits between different environments while providing sufficient insulation to mitigate condensation and molding issues. The conduit seal can also provide grounding continuity with an electrical conducting insert, thereby providing electrical continuity across a thermal barrier between the environments. The conduit seal can be used in a variety of applications including the food and beverage industry and the pharmaceutical industry.

    Abstract: A multi-layered conductor comprising one or more conductor layers of an electrically conductive material and one or more shielding layers of a soft magnetic material. The shielding layer can be coated onto the conductor layer and has a lower conductivity and a higher magnetic permeability than the electrically conductive material of conductor layers. The shielding layer can, at least when alternating current (AC) flows through the multi-layered conductor at relatively high frequencies, provide a separate power path for at least a portion of the high frequency AC current, as well as absorb at least a portion of the high frequency noises associated with that separated high frequency AC current. Additionally, the shielding layer can be separated from the conductor layer at an output end of the multi-layered conductor so that output ends of the shielding layer and conductor layer can be electrically connected to different electrical devices or components.

    Abstract: A cable tie having a strain sensing device incorporated therein. In one embodiment, the strain sensing device is a fiber Bragg grating (FBG), which is preferably molded within the strap. In this case, the cable tie further includes a socket in optical communication with the fiber Bragg grating for coupling of the cable tie to an external light source. In another embodiment, the strain sensing device is a mechanical fuse that activates in the presence of a predetermined amount of strain on the cable tie. The mechanical fuse is preferably disposed on the strap and is made of a fuse material having a mechanical strength lower than a mechanical strength of the material of the strap so that the mechanical fuse will fracture or deform earlier than the material of the underlying strap when both the fuse and the strap experience the same increasing strain.

    Abstract: A system and method for separating permanent magnets from a rotor for repurposing. The method includes obtaining a first rotor including a plurality of permanent magnets located in a plurality of cavities arranged in the first rotor, heating the first rotor to a first temperature, removing the permanent magnets from a respective cavity by applying a force onto the permanent magnets at the first temperature, and repurposing the permanent magnets for a secondary use. The first temperature may be greater than a glass transition temperature and less than a melting temperature. The permanent magnets may be further processed for installation into a second rotor, the processing may include grinding the one or more permanent magnets to enable installation into the second rotor, analyzing a structural integrity of the permanent magnets to determine suitability for repurposing, and may also include separating the polymer material from a magnetic material.

    Abstract: An electrical busway assembly is provided. The electrical busway assembly includes a plurality of busbars having a length direction. Each busbar includes a conductor and a busbar insulator coating the conductor. The busway assembly further includes a bonding agent positioned between the plurality of busbars and bonding the plurality of busbars in the length direction. The bonding agent is configured to withstand an electromagnetic force caused by a current flowing through the plurality of busbars during a short circuit condition in the plurality of busbars. The plurality of busbars are coupled with one another without mechanical fasteners, and the busway assembly has a voltage rating in a low voltage range of 1000 Volts (V) or lower.
