Abstract:
Iron loss is reduced by increasing magnetic flux density. A non-oriented electrical steel sheet has a chemical composition containing, by mass %, C: 0.0050% or less, Si: 1.50% or more and 4.00% or less, Al: 0.500% or less, Mn: 0.10% or more and 5.00% or less, S: 0.0200% or less, P: 0.200% or less, N: 0.0050% or less, and O: 0.0200% or less, with the balance consisting of Fe and inevitable impurities, in which the steel sheet has an Ar3 transformation temperature of 700° C. or higher, a grain size of 80 μm or more and 200 μm or less, a Vickers hardness of 140 HV or more and 230 HV or less.
Abstract:
A punching method includes: punching out a plurality of electrical steel sheets in a stacked state by a mold, wherein sheet thicknesses of the electrical steel sheets are set to be 0.35 mm or less, a Vickers hardness (test force 1 kg) of the sheets is set to be 150 to 400, and an average crystal grain size of the sheets is set to be 50 to 250 μm, a clearance of the mold is set to be 7% or more of a minimum sheet thickness of the sheet thicknesses of the electrical steel sheets and equal to or lower than 7% of a total sheet thickness of the electrical steel sheets, and a pressure that a sheet presser of the mold applies to the electrical steel sheets is set to be 0.10 MPa or more.
