I have been told by colleagues (I design switch-mode PSUs, and Class-D
amplifiers for a living) that water jet cutting is fairly benign on
transformer steel. Avoid laser cutting it seems!
Sadly, dust-iron or ferrite materials can't take the high field strength
of NiFeB magnets (or don't have a high enough permeability), so although
an interesting idea, I'm not sure any type of printed magnetic core
materials are likely to be suitable for these type of motors (not in the
foreseeable future, though I could be wrong...)
