The work presented in this paper relates to an Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM) experimental results and optimization procedure programed in Matlab and Maxwell environments. The stator of the machine is a conventional stator with distributed winding. The subject of the first optimization stage was the geometry of the IPM machine, concerning average torque value maximization and maximum cogging torque value minimization under physical and technological constraints. The optimized rotor core is made of from Magnetic Powder (SMC). It was tested in a generator regime.
