A Guide to the Alnico Magnet Recycling Process Hidden within every discarded Alnico magnet lies valuable metals worth recovering. These permanent magnets contain cobalt and nickel, two strategically significant rare metals with high market value and increasingly tight global supply chains. The metals in these magnets represent significant economic value that is often discarded. Environmental [...]
Processing-Driven Microstructure Control in Additively Manufactured Alnico Permanent Magnets This work investigates the process–structure–property relationships in cobalt-free Alnico-3 permanent magnets fabricated using directed energy deposition (DED), a laser-based additive manufacturing technique. Systematic variation of laser power, scan speed, and powder mass flow rate is considered through the framework of global energy deposition (GED), a derived [...]
Application of Alnico Magnets In the vast universe of magnetism, Alnico magnets stand out for their remarkable properties and versatile applications. Comprised of aluminum (Al), nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), and often including iron and other metals, Alnico magnets were developed in the 1930s and have since been integral to a myriad of technological advancements. Their [...]

Computer Hard Drive Magnets Computer hard drive magnets are indispensable components within modern computing technology. There was once a concern that magnets have the potential to erase data from our hard drives, cause disruptions in computer monitors, or interfere with the electron flow within cables. But these powerful magnets are integral to the functioning of [...]
About Hard Disk Drive Magnets Hard disk drive magnets, also known as disk drive magnets, are primarily used in mechanical hard disks. Regarding them, you may have some knowledge you want to understand. This article compiles six common questions. 1. What material are hard drive magnets made of? The vast majority of magnets from mechanical [...]
About Ndfeb Hexagonal Magnets Hexagonal magnets are considered to be relatively "special-shaped" magnets, belonging to the category of polygonal magnets. Some customers may also refer to them as hexagonal magnets. For customers who are new to this type of magnet, there may be some questions. Below, we have compiled some common questions for your reference. [...]
Nickel Plated Ferrite Disc Magnets The nickel-plated ferrite circular magnet is a magnetic component that uses sintered ferrite circular magnets as the base material and adds a metal coating on its surface. Compared to conventional "bare black ferrite," this product exhibits significant differences in appearance, corrosion resistance, and certain application scenarios. The following picture is [...]
About Cube Magnet With Hole There are many types of magnets, some of which have been introduced in previous articles. Today, we will introduce the hole-drilled cube magnet. Cube magnet with holes is, simply put, a cube magnet with holes drilled into its surface. It is typically made of neodymium rare earth material, though other [...]
Which Products Commonly Use Custom Special Shaped Magnets? Magnets with complex shapes are commonly referred to as custom-shaped magnets. Due to the difficulty of manufacturing and processing them, not every manufacturer specializes in this field. MPCO Magnets is a manufacturer specializing in the production of custom-shaped magnets. We provide quotes and prototypes for custom-shaped magnets, [...]
How do I Use Old Magnets or Replace When Motor Loses Magnetism? Recently, I spoke with a friend who repairs electric motors. Regarding the permanent magnet motors they repair, some customers request that the original demagnetized magnets be remagnetized for reuse, believing this will best preserve the motor’s original performance. We also discussed this issue [...]
