The Role of Permanent Magnets in Coreless Motors
Understanding Coreless Motors Coreless motors, also known as coreless DC motors or ironless motors, are a unique category of electric motors designed without the traditional iron core in their rotor. Instead, their rotor windings are tightly wound and supported on a lightweight, non-magnetic former, which significantly reduces the motor’s overall [...]
Ferrite magnet vs neodymium
Neodymium magnets, also called rare Earth magnets, have become very popular because they are so strong. They are much stronger than ferrite magnets, even though they are very small. But there are some pros and cons to each, so they are better for different things. Types of Magnets [...]
How magnets work in Generator
Basic Principles How Electricity is Generated Using Magnets What Is a Generator At its core, a generator is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. This conversion relies heavily on magnets and the interaction between magnetic fields and conductors. Simply put, when a conductor such as [...]
Magnets in Wind Turbines
We’ve seen wind turbines become a game changer in the world of clean electricity and the transition to renewable energy. One of the key components in modern wind turbines is the permanent magnet, especially those made of rare-earth materials like neodymium-iron-boron. These magnets help make wind turbines more efficient, lower [...]
High temperature magnets
Magnets are used in many industries from manufacturing to engineering and are often required to perform in extreme temperature conditions. Selecting the right magnet for high-temperature applications is critical to getting the best performance and durability. In this article, we’ll look at how temperature affects magnets and go over the [...]
How to remove a magnet
Neodymium magnets are some of the strongest permanent magnets available today. You find them in everything from electronic devices to industrial equipment and heavy-duty lifting tools. But because these magnets have such a strong magnetic force, you have to be really careful when you handle them. They can cause injury, [...]
Permanent Magnetic Lifters
Neodymium magnets, also known as NdFeB magnets, are the most powerful permanent magnets available today. They’ve become essential in a variety of industries. You find them in electronic devices like hard drives, mobile phones, and earphones. Neodymium magnets are also a key component in industrial tools like permanent magnetic lifters. [...]
Magnet recycling
Understanding Different Types of Magnets When learning how to recycle magnets, it’s important to first understand the common types and their differences. Magnets vary based on their composition, strength, and recyclability. The main types you’ll encounter include neodymium, ferrite, samarium-cobalt, and alnico magnets. Each has unique properties that affect recycling [...]
What are Ceramic Magnets
Ceramic magnets, also called ferrite magnets, were developed in the 1960s as a low-cost alternative to metallic magnets. They consist mainly of iron oxide and strontium carbonate. Ceramic magnets are corrosion-resistant and have a high resistance to demagnetization. They’re used in many industries because they’re cheap per pound and hold [...]
