Abstract: In the ISDN telecommunication system, the connection between a digital local exchange and the network termination ensues via a public two-wire line at whose ends what are referred to as U-transformers reside. When the network termination leads to a terminal subscriber, then this is called a U.sub.k0 interface whereat the line length between the transformers can amount to up to 8 km. The bit error rate of the transmitted pulses must be <10.sup.-7, whereby the pulses have direct currents for the remote feed of the terminal subscribers that can amount to up to 80 mA superimposed on them. For such U.sub.K0 transformers, a toroidal tape core of a soft-magnetic, amorphous, magnetostriction-free alloy tape is employed. The manufactured toroidal tape core is tempered in a magnetic field, this thermal treatment ensuing in a protective gas atmosphere.

Abstract: For the iron cores of an electrical machinery and apparatuses, such as transformers, electric motors and generators, mostly a grain-oriented electromagnetic steel sheet is used. Since the grain-oriented electromagnetic steel sheet has a (110) [001]texture and is thus easily magnetized in the rolling direction, the direction of magnetic flux in the iron cores is required to be coincident with the rolling direction. However, this requirement cannot be completely fulfilled due to the shape and an operation efficiency of producing the iron cores as well as generation of a magnetic reluctance in the butted iron-core elements. Laser irradiation regions are formed, according to the present invention, for example, on the following: the parts of the iron core where the rotational magnetic field is generated; the entire surface of the I-type elements or: the major part of the E or C type element.
