OverviewMirmex develops custom axial‑flux BLDC micromotors using patented stator winding topologies that remove the need for conventional copper wire windings. Coupled with motor modelling and optimization tools, this approach enables axial and radial architectures, advanced multi‑airgap topologies and variants with zero cogging to meet specific industrial design constraints.
Design & Technology Highlights- Zero copper wire windings: novel stator winding method eliminating conventional copper wire constraints.
- Patented axial‑flux stator winding topologies enabling coil patterns not achievable with wire winding.
- Support for advanced architectures including multi‑airgaps and zero‑cogging variants.
- Motor modelling and optimization to maximize electromagnetic performance for the target application.
Performance Ranges (key metrics)Diameter [mm] : 12 - 300

Benefits- More compact: up to 50% smaller at equal performance versus conventional solutions.
- Superior performance density due to improved copper fill‑factor within the same volume.
- Custom made: full design freedom (diameter, length, speed, voltage) to match application constraints.
- Faster prototyping and lower prototype cost (claimed ~10x faster).
- Lower material use and energy demand (up to ~45% raw material reduction).
- Improved thermal behaviour: higher fill‑factor and loss balancing reduce thermal losses.
- Ambient resistant: designed to operate in harsh conditions (temperature swings, detergents, corrosive atmospheres, dusty environments).
Unique Features- Unique coil topologies delivering improved electromagnetic performance and efficiency.
- Capability to supply axial and radial‑flux motors, single and multi‑airgap variants with recommendations per application.
- Advanced multi‑airgap and zero‑cogging options available for precision requirements.
