Types of Custom Transformers

Leightner is able to tailor-manufacture power transformers to your needed specifications. Leightner specializes in ferrite transformers, toroidal transformers, ferroresonant transformers, & three-phase transformers. As well as inductors and chokes.

Ferrite Transformers

Ferrite transformers are ideal for high-frequency applications due to their low eddy current losses and high magnetic permeability. These transformers excel in:

  • Reducing energy losses at high frequencies.
  • Compact designs suitable for electronics like inverters and audio systems.
  • High resistance to electrical currents, making them efficient and durable

Toroidal Transformers

Toroidal transformers feature a doughnut-shaped core, offering superior efficiency and compactness. Key advantages include:

  • Low electromagnetic interference (EMI), ideal for sensitive equipment.
  • Lightweight and compact designs for space-constrained applications.
  • High inductance and reduced energy losses

Ferroresonant Transformers

Also known as constant-voltage transformers, ferroresonant transformers are designed for voltage regulation and surge protection. Their benefits include:

  • Stable voltage output despite input fluctuations.
  • Reduced harmonics and improved line regulation.
  • Inherent protection against short circuits.

Three-Phase Transformers

Three-phase transformers are the backbone of industrial power distribution. They deliver:

  • Efficient long-distance power transmission.
  • Cost-effective designs compared to three single-phase units.
  • Versatility with Delta or Wye configurations to meet various load requirements

High Voltage Pulse Transformers

High voltage pulse transformers that deliver precise, high-energy electrical pulses for demanding applications in radar, medical devices, and industrial automation.

  • Enable delivery of controlled, high-energy pulses with accurate timing and minimal distortion.
  • Provide robust electrical isolation to protect sensitive components from high voltages.
  • Support fast transient response necessary for advanced radar, medical, and power systems.

Ferrite Rod Transformers

 Ferrite rod transformer antennas are tailored for applications in ground penetrating radar, avionics, RFID systems, and more, providing enhanced signal reception and compact form factors for specialized needs.

  • Increased signal sensitivity due to ferrite’s magnetic concentration, enabling effective reception in compact devices.
  • Directional reception and improved selectivity, ideal for applications requiring precise frequency tuning.
  • Flexible, application-specific designs that can be adapted for use in RFID, military, and other specialized systems.

Benefits of Custom Transformers

Custom power transformers offer a range of significant benefits over standard, off-the-shelf models, especially for applications with unique or demanding requirements. 

  • Tailored Design for Specific Needs
    • Custom transformers are designed to meet exact specifications, including unique voltage levels, environmental conditions, physical dimensions, and operational demands. This ensures optimal compatibility and performance for specialized applications such as renewable energy, automotive systems, oil and gas, and industrial production processes
  • Enhanced Efficiency and Performance
    • By tailoring the design to match precise operational requirements, custom transformers minimize energy losses and maximize efficiency. This leads to lower energy costs and more sustainable operations, making them ideal for businesses aiming to reduce their carbon footprint.
  • Improved Reliability and Longevity
    • Custom transformers are built to withstand specific environmental conditions like extreme temperatures, high humidity, or corrosive atmospheres. This precision reduces the risk of overloading or overheating, leading to fewer failures and longer equipment life.
  • Flexibility in Design and Materials
    • Custom manufacturers offer flexibility in selecting materials (e.g., copper or aluminum windings) and insulation types. This adaptability allows transformers to fit into tight spaces or operate effectively in harsh environments where standard models might fail.
  • Compliance with Industry Standards
    • Custom solutions are often designed to meet or exceed regulatory standards for safety and performance. This ensures compliance with industry-specific requirements, reducing the risk of fines or operational disruptions.
  • Long-Term Cost Savings
    • Although custom transformers may have a higher upfront cost, they often prove more cost-effective over time due to improved efficiency, reduced maintenance needs, and longer lifespans. These factors contribute to significant savings in operational costs.
  • Support for Technological Innovation
    • Custom transformers enable the integration of advanced technologies such as real-time monitoring and smart systems for proactive maintenance. This supports improved system reliability and reduces downtime.
