The manufacturing tolerance of the permanent magnets (PMs) is inherent in the produce of the machine. These tolerances influence back electromotive force (EMF), which is an important response of the motor. In order to enhance the quality of the product, the authors need to reduce these tolerances, but it is very difficult and involves a number of costs. Therefore, this study presents a robust design of the EMF characteristic analysis considering the manufacturing tolerances of PM in the interior PM synchronous motor (IPMSM). Among the robust optimisation method, Taguchi robust design based on orthogonal array was applied. Finally, the validity of the analysis result is verified by comparing the optimum design model with present design model (mass production model) ones.
