Rare Earth Magnets are produced in several ways, some of which are the following:
a) Vacuum Melting – A combination of Neodymium, iron, iron-boron, dysprosium and other components such as copper, gallium, aluminum etc which are stirred and melted together. In most cases, the melting process...
Where do we find N52 magnets
Throughout the history of this earth, man has been defined and driven by a thirst for knowledge and innovation. He has been relentless in his progress towards a more scientific way of life. Earlier he used to hunt and gather for a living. After that came the time of...
Nd-Fe-B magnets have improved dramatically over the last 10 years. But they still contain iron and other reactive phases, and will rust. Nd-Fe-B is a blended powder before it is pressed into a magnet. The better the powder is mixed, the less "free" iron is available [small clumps of iron that did...

Magnetic sensors indirectly measure properties such as direction, position, rotation, angle and current by detecting the magnetic field and its changes. Compared to other direct methods, such as optical or mechanical sensor, most magnetic sensors require some signal processing to get the property...
Permanent magnet supplied under two conditions, Magnetized or no magnetized, is usually not marked its polarity. If the user require, we could mark the polarity by the means agreed on. When placing the order, the user should inform the supply condition and if the mark of the polarity is...
Perament Magnet selection for all applications must consider the entire magnetic circuit and the environment. Where Alnico is appropriate, magnet size can be minimized if it can be magnetizing after assembly into the magnetic circuit. If used independent of other circuit components, as in security...
Permanent magnets are a vital part of modern life. They are found in or used to produce almost every modern convenience today. The first permanent magnets were produced from naturally occurring rocks called lodestones. These stones were first studied over 2500 years ago by the Chinese and...
