Can 3D-Printed Magnets Replace Rare Earth Magnets?
Can 3D-Printed Magnets Replace Rare Earth Magnets? Additive manufacturing can turn everyday magnetic material into alternatives for expansive rare-earth magnets. Engineers at the Amess Laboratory’s Critical Materials Institute used laser 3D metal printing to turn permanent magnet material into an economical alternative to more expensive rare-earth neodymium iron boron (NdFeB) magnets. The researchers experimented with [...]
