How Permanent Magnets are used in Wind Turbines Wind turbines are an increasingly common mechanism that are used across the country as a green source of energy, converting wind into electric and kinetic energy. One important factor in the operation of these wind turbines is the use of magnets. MPCO Magnetics knows firsthand just how [...]
What are Injection Molded Magnets and Why are they Beneficial? From motors and sensors to mop heads and toothbrushes, injection molding allows for parts and components to be easily produced in a variety of different industries. Many of these parts are used for different products that are vitally important. MPCO Magnetics is a permanent magnet [...]
Permanent Magnet Simulations Today’s permanent magnet FEA and simulation modeling software is tremendous. They can help answer critical questions about motor performance, holding forces, flux density, sensor selection, and a host of other application requirements before any prototypes need to be made. There are many considerations that go into any design, so when using simulations [...]
Permanent Magnets for Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Motors It's hardly surprising that electric and hybrid car' motors differ significantly from typical internal-combustion engines. The rare-earth magnets that help power electric and hybrid vehicles can be rather complex to fabricate, despite having fewer moving parts. We specialize in permanent magnets and their numerous applications here at [...]
Ceramic Magnets Ceramic (Ferrite) magnets are sintered permanent magnets composed of Barium or Strontium Ferrite. This class of magnets, aside from good resistance to demagnetization, has the popular advantage of low cost. Ferrite magnets are very hard and brittle, and require specialized machining techniques. Moreover, they should be machined in an unmagnetized state. We are [...]
Introduction to the Strength of Ceramic Ferrite Magnet Ceramic magnets, also known as hard ferrite magnets, are composed of barium or strontium and were developed in the early 1960s as an alternative to more expensive metal magnets. These magnets are very hard, brittle, and have lower energy characteristics compared to other magnetic materials. However, ceramic [...]
Soft Magnetic Materials: Introduction and Applications In materials mechanics, “soft” means that a material will yield readily to touch or pressure. However, when we talk about soft magnetic materials, it does not mean that the materials are soft, rather, it means that the materials’ magnetism will change readily upon exerted magnetic field. Figure 1, Alternation [...]
Magnet Squares Tape Sheets with 3M Strong Adhesive Backing The magnetic plates from MPCO today you will find thousands of different magnets, but you have already encountered the realization that conventional magnets can be used quite restricted. This is completely different with the Wintex magnetic plates. Our thin stickers can be easily cut to the [...]
Customer Questions & Answers of Adhesive Square Magnet Question: will they stick to each other? trying to use them to keep a door closed and a drawer closed Answer: Thank you for your question. We think for your project you are better off buying strong rare earth magnets (neodymium). They have a stronger magnetic capacity [...]
Magnetic Properties of Materials: Detailed Explanation According to Ampere’s law, when current flows through a wire or solenoid then magnetic field is produced around it. The magnetism produced by an atom can be due to 2 types of motion of electrons; spin and orbital motion. The net magnetic field created by the electrons in an [...]
How to Make Magnets Weaker? What Are the Methods? Some people want the magnetism to become stronger, and some feel that the magnetism is too strong and want to reduce it and become weaker. Today, our article mainly talks about some methods and techniques to make the magnetism weaker. I hope it will help you. [...]
