Abstract: This paper presents a triple three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) with shaped magnets for low vibration applications. Firstly, the features of the designed PMSM are investigated from three aspects, including triple three-phase windings, shaped magnets, and multi-layered housing. Then, the armature reaction, magnetomotive force, torque performance, and fault tolerance ability of the designed PMSM are investigated. Subsequently, the radial force of the designed PMSM with shaped magnets is studied, in which the radial force modulation effect is considered. In addition, the radial force and vibration reduction principle is elaborated in detail. The modal simulation and experiment are carried out, and the vibration reduction effect of the designed PMSM is verified by the multiphysics vibration predicted model. The result shows that the vibration can be effectively reduced by the shaped magnets and multi-layered housing design, and the output torque of the designed PMSM has been reduced insignificantly thanks to the triple three-phase windings.
