MAGNETS
High Performance Strong Magnet
Magnets first emerged several millennia ago. Ancient Greece had naturally occurring magnets as early as the sixth century BC—a mineral known as magnetite. Though they could not wholly grasp their uses in such disciplines as navigation and medicine, people in ancient times quickly learned that magnets had purposes. As science developed, qualities and uses for magnets were thoroughly investigated; thus, they became vital components in contemporary industry and technology.
Superior Magnets
Particularly those of iron, nickel, or cobalt, a magnet is a substance that generates a magnetic field and acts of attraction on other magnets and other materials. Usually speaking, magnets fit one of the following groups:
NdFeB magnets are the strongest permanent magnetic materials available on the market. Their main composition consists of neodymium, iron, boron, and other elements. These magnets can create a strong magnetic field and possess a high magnetic energy product.
Primarily consisting of iron oxides, including Fe2O3, coupled with additional metals such as barium or strontium, ferrite or ceramic magnets are Cheap, corrosion-resistant, and with strong anti-oxidation qualities are ferrite magnets.
Alnico Magnets consist of aluminium, nickel, cobalt, and iron in concert. They are characterized by good temperature stability and quite high magnetic permeability. They are typically utilized in applications involving high temperatures; they have great strengths, are resistant to high temperatures, and are non-corrosive.
Made of samarium and cobalt alloys, SmCo magnets have excellent high-temperature performance and corrosion resistance.
Magnet Features & Characteristics
- Why do magnets’ prices vary so greatly? The key elements influencing pricing variations in magnets are the type of material, magnetic strength, manufacturing technique, and size. Although rare-earth magnets (like NdFeB) are more expensive than ceramic magnets, a magnet with a better magnetic grade is typically more pricey furthermore, whether it is an order in bulk or a customized-made magnet.
- How does one choose the appropriate magnetic grade? The choice of a magnet grade is essentially motivated by the application environment and necessary magnetic strength. The higher the grade, the greater the magnetic force; magnet grades, like N35, N52, etc., define a magnet’s maximum magnetic energy product.
- Does temperature influence magnetic performance? Indeed, temperature may affect magnet performance. Every magnet material has an ideal working temperature, above which its magnetic characteristics will gradually fade.
- Why Is the Direction of Magnetization Crucially Important? A magnet’s performance in practical applications depends on the direction and intensity of its magnetic field, which is determined by its magnetizing direction. Knowing the direction of magnetization guarantees that the magnet’s field corresponds with the equipment’s design criteria, enhancing operational performance.
- Why does the magnetism of a magnet fade? With time, a magnet may gradually lose its magnetism due to extremely lengthy usage, high-temperature exposure, significant external magnetic field interference, physical impact, or ageing. Magnets may also lose some of their magnetism under harsh conditions, influencing their performance.
- Does humidity or corrosive surroundings cause Magnets to lose their magnetism? Indeed, magnets are readily harmed in wet or corrosive surroundings. To manage this, either naturally corrosion-resistant materials like SmCo or magnetic materials with corrosion-resistant coatings should be considered.
- Are magnets customizable? We also offer customization services. Depending on specific requirements, we may define the form, size, magnetic grade, and magnetizing direction. This is crucial for certain particular applications.
- Magnets for Industrial, Commercial, and Other Uses? Magnets find extensive use in everyday life, industry, business, and research. They are essential in the production of microscopic components and in the operation of highly precise tools.
