In contrast to permanent magnet transverse flux machines (PMTFM), here the magneto motive force (mmf) of the rotor is generated by a current. The magnetic circuit of the WFTFM is made of soft magnetic composite (SMC) and is designed as claw-poles. Thus the magnetic circuit consists of only a few components. Together with the simple ring coils in stator and rotor, the WFTFM offers advantages in the production of electrical machines. The basic structure of the machine and a first design is described here. The results generated by numerical three-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA) are compared with those of conventional machines.}, language = {en} }
