AXIAL FLUX ELECTRIC MOTOR

The invention provides an axial flux electric motor comprising a rotor (3) rotatably supported around an axis of rotation (Ar) and carrying a number RPN of magnetic poles (22,23), and a stator (2) carrying a number SPN of poles (3a ... 3n) distributed at regular angular intervals about the axis of rotation (Ar) of the rotor (3), each of the poles (3a ... 3n) of the stator (2) comprising a core (5a to 5c) extending in a radial direction of the stator (2) and a winding (6) of an electric conductor wound around the core (5a to 5c), the cores (5a to 5c) of the poles (3a ... 3n) each being formed by a stack of laminations (7a to 7c) consisting of a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet (E), the grains of which are oriented in a preferred direction (GO), the cores (5a to 5c) respectively being aligned along a pole axis of the respective pole (3a ... 3n) which is directed axially parallel to the axis of rotation (Ar) of the rotor (3). To ensure a smooth running and an optimized electric efficiency of the motor according to the invention in a plan view on the head face (11) of the core (5a to 5c) of at least one of the poles (3a ... 3n), at least for one of the laminations (7a - 7c) forming this core (5a to 5c) the direction (PA) of the pole axis includes with the preferred direction (GO) of the grains of said lamination (7a to 7c) a tilt angle â which is greater than 0° and at most equal to 30°.
