Abstract
A system includes a magnetic material supply for regulating a magnetic material flow rate of a magnetic material and a binder material supply for regulating a binder material flow rate of a binder material. A nozzle is configured for depositing a deposition mixture of the magnetic material and the binder material on a surface and a preheater is configured to preheat the deposition mixture before depositing on the surface. A controller is in operative communication with the magnetic material supply, the binder material supply, and the preheater. The controller is configured to receive an inductor core design file that represents a geometry and a magnetic permeability distribution of an inductor core, move the nozzle to one or more deposition locations, and adjust the magnetic material flow rate to the binder material flow rate to achieve a deposition mixture having a desired magnetic permeability at the deposition locations.
