The two most important specifications to consider when searching
for industrial magnets include strength and holding force.
The
maximum energy product is also known as the magnet strength
or grade. The point on the demagnetization curve where the
product of B and H is a maximum and the volume of magnet
material
required to project a given energy into its surroundings
is
a minimum. It is measured in megagauss-oersteds, MGOe. The
holding force is the force the magnet is capable of holding
under ideal conditions.
Conditions such as the size and shape of the parts, the surface
conditions, motion, vibration, friction, holding angles, and
machining forces will affect the holding force of the magnet
and should be factored into the magnetic circuit design.
Forms of Industrial Magnets
Industrial magnets can be supplied in one of many physical
forms. These include, but are not limited to, block or bar,
flexible strip or sheet, sheet or slab, rod, powder, horse
shoe or U-shaped, button or pot, round, ring or disc, sphere
or bead, arc segment, and rotor or poles. The magnet can be
non-magnetized, conventional magnetization or multiple magnetization's.
A non-magnetized magnet can be magnetized after it has been
assembled in the magnetic circuit. A conventional magnet has
one pole on each side, the north pole on one side, and the
south pole on the other. Magnets can be magnetized through
the thickness, length, or diameter. A magnet with multiple
magnetization's has multiple poles on each side. There are
two or more sets of poles on each surface. North and South
poles alternate through the thickness of the material. The
number of poles on one face of the magnet is also important
to consider.
