About
Soo-Gyung Lee is a leading researcher in the design and optimization of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs), with a particular focus on high-performance robotic actuators. Her work addresses critical challenges in electric motor manufacturing, notably the impact of assembly imperfections in segmented stator cores—a common yet understudied source of performance variability. In her highly cited 2020 study (31 citations), Lee pioneered robust design optimization techniques for surface-mounted PMSMs (SPMSMs), systematically analyzing how stator segment assembly tolerances amplify cogging torque, a key source of vibration and noise in precision robotics. By developing methods to minimize cogging torque variation under real-world manufacturing constraints, she has advanced the reliability and efficiency of motors used in collaborative robots and automation systems. Lee’s contributions bridge the gap between theoretical motor design and practical industrial production, offering engineers actionable frameworks for achieving consistent, high-torque-density actuators. Her work is widely referenced by both academic researchers and industry practitioners seeking to improve motor performance without costly over-engineering, cementing her reputation as a key innovator in electromechanical design for next-generation robotics.
