Do Toroids Work in Industrial Applications

Toroidal transformers are used because they are small without sacrificing the power of effectiveness. Although hidden inside devices, these transformers are found in a wide range of industries and applications. It is easy to notice a toroid because of its signature doughnut shape. Toroidal transformers offer distinct benefits not found in transformers of similar size. As a result of their size and performance characteristics, it is easy to see why toroids and custom coil winding is the ideal choice for electrical and industrial applications.

Toroids

 All toroids contain a magnetic core and custom coil winding. These passive electronic devices can easily achieve and sustain magnetic flux. The complete 360 shape of a toroid has negligible leakage flux in these transformers.

Beyond their compact design and lightweight, these devices offer many benefits, which include:

Quiet performance is a requirement in modern electronic equipment. Custom coil winding covers the core, responsible for reducing magnetostriction (the most common cause of mechanical hum). Implementing custom toroids in a design greatly reduces acoustic noise compared to a standard transformer.

Toroids

Toroids also benefit from having a low stray magnetic field. Compared to a traditional transformer, a toroid exhibits up to 90% less stray magnetic field (without the need for additional shielding).
