Description: As a general rule, cast or sintered magnet materials are very hard (RC46). This is 46 on the Rockwell "C" scale, which is harder than commercially available drills and taps, so tools will heat up and ...

Description: What's the difference between the intrinsic curve and the normal curve? I understand that we generally use normal curve when designing the magnets, so when is the intrinsic curve used? The intrinsic ...

Description: Magnetic flux lines can not cross each other, so magnets in repulsion develop radial vectors whose intensity increases as the magnets approach each other. To the extent that the amplitude of the ...

Description: Magnetic flux will travel along the path that offers it the least amount of resistance, (or, more accurately, the least amount of reluctance). Steel components in a magnetic circuit offer the flux a ...

Description: Magnet strength needs to be defined. Magnet strength actually is a measure of total flux in the area of interest. If greater holding strength is desired, then more Br is needed, and since holding ...

Description: The Curie temperature refers to the transition temperature above which ferromagnetic materials lose their useful magnetic properties. Ferrite materials are actually ferromagnetic materials [a similar ...

Description: All magnetic materials are at all times as fully magnetized as their thermal state permits. Prior to "magnetization" their magnetic domains arrange randomly to minimize their internal (and external) ...

Description: Eddy current devices have a straight-line torque-speed characteristic, with the torque increasing linearly with the speed by virtue of the fact that the induced currents vary in magnitude with the ...
