The discussion centers on the specifications and manufacturing of a toroidal transformer core, specifically a 150 x 100 x 60 M4 grade core. The user seeks to modify this core to a size of 180 x 100 x 60 mm by adding an outer diameter of 20 mm. Clarification is provided on the term "slit coil," which refers to a precision manufacturing process that enhances electromagnetic characteristics and reduces eddy currents. The process involves winding selected coils of CRGO electrical steel into loops after slitting, ensuring dimensional accuracy and magnetic properties. The conversation highlights the importance of maintaining the same grade for any additional slits to ensure compatibility with the existing core.
