 Permanent Magnets in a Changing World Market
By Steve Constantinides | Arnold Magnetic Technologies
There are several commercially available permanent magnets. In sequence of invention they are: alnico, ferrite, SmCo (samarium cobalt), NdFeB (neodymium iron boron, Neo), and SmFeN (samarium iron nitride). The last three types are considered “rare earth” magnets because they contain one or more rare earth elements. In terms of total quantity produced each year the permanent magnet market is dominated by the ferrite and rare earth types. Approximately 70 weight percent of ferrite and rare earth permanent magnets are utilized in motors. Permanent magnet motors have several advantages over induction (non-magnet) types, the most notable being efficiency. This coupled with the pervasive use of motors means that permanent magnets are a key enabling material in modern economies. <read more>

 New Measurement Technique Characterizes Permanent Magnets
By Rocco Holzhey | Innovent e.V.
Permanent magnets are widely used for sensor and motor applications. Besides these, magnetic fields are also used for applications such as storage of information and fraud protection on documents. With the number of critical applications continuing to rise, developers and producers are increasingly forced to meet safety requirements, as well as increase the technology’s overall efficiency. In order to ensure the high quality that the end user demands, comprehensive quality control is necessary. <read more>
