This paper presents an axial flux permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) with a disk rotor between two stators, which are wound in a tooth-coil technology (a concentrate winding type with subunitary number of slots/pole/phase). This type of winding facilitates the magnetizing inductor function of stator coils. A potential magnetizing system can be envisioned by taking into account that the coil span and the slot pitch are practically identical, the number of tooth-coils and poles are almost the same, and that there are two rotor poles between four tooth-coils (two adjacent tooth-coils on each stator). Thus, a special magnetizing inductor is not required in order to magnetize, pair by pair, the permanent magnet (PM) rotor poles. The number of tooth-coils exceeds the number of rotor poles by one (N{sub}s =2p +1). Some aspects of the average performance obtained in both modes of operation-machine and magnetizing inductor - are highlighted by digital simulation. A scale-down demonstrating model also confirmed the feasibility of the magnetizing inductor function of the stator.
