CORE LACING
Manufacturing personnel with experience in lacing transformers have found it easy to work with amorphous cores, since the expanded lapped sets are not rigid. In addition, the interlacing process has minimal stress impact.

MINIMIZING STRESS - MAXIMIZING YOUR DT CORE PERFORMANCE
Lowest losses and exciting power are achieved when your DT core is in its lowest stress conditions. Please observe the following to ensure that your core is subject to minimal stress:

1. Use lifting magnets for transporting & handling cores during assembly process. The use of an up-ending table is recommended to position the core upright for core/coil assembly.
2. Avoid supporting the coils on the core. Let the frame support the coils.
3. Avoid forcefully packing out the coils against the core.
4. Avoid overtightening tapes, straps or other framing fixtures.
5. Avoid low viscosity adhesives which can penetrate deeply into the core.
6. Design the coil and frame structure to withstand short circuit strength without overstressing the core
