Applications of polymer-bonded magnets
Applications of polymer-bonded magnets are becoming increasingly important in our daily lives, as Jinfang Liu explains.
Among the other advantages of the polymer-bonded magnets are lighter weight, unlimited magnet lengths, and, in many cases, improved cost effectiveness due to net-shape manufacturing.
EEC offers twenty distinct grades of polymer-bonded magnet materials to provide engineers with a greater variety of design options when creating complex magnet shapes.
Several of these grades are capable of withstanding exposure to temperatures typically encountered in medical applications requiring repeated autoclaving.
These attributes extend EEC's ability to offer rare earth magnets with the broadest range of properties and performance capabilities available.
EEC rare earth magnets and magnet assemblies are used by many of the world's leading manufacturers in the medical products, aerospace and defense, and telecommunications industries, as well as a host of other applications that require superior magnet stability, power and precision.
Potential applications for polymer-bonded magnets include permanent magnet motors, generators, and sensor devices.
