Pros and cons of rare earth magnets.
Benefits
- They have unchanged lifting capacity, and over more than 10 years their performance decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
- They are resistant to demagnetization induced by external magnetic fields,
- Thanks to the glossy finish, the plating of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold-plated, or silver gives an aesthetic appearance,
- Magnets exhibit extremely high magnetic induction on the active area,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets are capable of operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- In view of the ability of flexible molding and adaptation to unique requirements, magnetic components can be manufactured in a broad palette of geometric configurations, which expands the range of possible applications,
- Huge importance in advanced technology sectors – they are used in mass storage devices, electric drive systems, medical equipment, and multitasking production systems.
- Compactness – despite small sizes they generate large force, making them ideal for precision applications
Limitations
- They are prone to damage upon too strong impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth securing magnets using a steel holder. Such protection not only shields the magnet but also increases its resistance to damage
- We warn that neodymium magnets can lose their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we advise our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- When exposed to humidity, magnets start to rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as magnets in rubber or plastics, which secure oxidation as well as corrosion.
- Due to limitations in producing nuts and complicated shapes in magnets, we recommend using a housing - magnetic holder.
- Health risk to health – tiny shards of magnets pose a threat, when accidentally swallowed, which is particularly important in the context of child health protection. Additionally, small elements of these devices are able to complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
- Higher cost of purchase is one of the disadvantages compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget applications
Holding force characteristics
Magnetic strength at its maximum – what contributes to it?
- using a base made of low-carbon steel, serving as a magnetic yoke
- possessing a massiveness of minimum 10 mm to avoid saturation
- characterized by even structure
- under conditions of ideal adhesion (metal-to-metal)
- during pulling in a direction vertical to the plane
- in temp. approx. 20°C
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Gap between magnet and steel – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or dirt) significantly weakens the pulling force, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Load vector – highest force is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The resistance to sliding of the magnet along the plate is standardly several times lower (approx. 1/5 of the lifting capacity).
- Metal thickness – thin material does not allow full use of the magnet. Magnetic flux penetrates through instead of converting into lifting capacity.
- Steel grade – ideal substrate is pure iron steel. Hardened steels may generate lower lifting capacity.
- Base smoothness – the more even the plate, the larger the contact zone and stronger the hold. Roughness acts like micro-gaps.
- Temperature – temperature increase results in weakening of force. Check the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity was determined by applying a polished steel plate of suitable thickness (min. 20 mm), under vertically applied force, whereas under attempts to slide the magnet the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a minimal clearance between the magnet and the plate lowers the load capacity.
Safe handling of NdFeB magnets
Precision electronics
Navigation devices and mobile phones are highly sensitive to magnetic fields. Close proximity with a strong magnet can permanently damage the internal compass in your phone.
Magnet fragility
Neodymium magnets are ceramic materials, meaning they are fragile like glass. Clashing of two magnets will cause them shattering into shards.
Fire warning
Fire hazard: Rare earth powder is highly flammable. Avoid machining magnets without safety gear as this risks ignition.
Conscious usage
Use magnets with awareness. Their powerful strength can surprise even professionals. Plan your moves and respect their force.
Medical implants
Health Alert: Strong magnets can turn off pacemakers and defibrillators. Stay away if you have medical devices.
Cards and drives
Intense magnetic fields can erase data on credit cards, HDDs, and storage devices. Keep a distance of at least 10 cm.
Product not for children
Always keep magnets away from children. Choking hazard is significant, and the consequences of magnets connecting inside the body are fatal.
Bone fractures
Large magnets can break fingers instantly. Under no circumstances place your hand betwixt two strong magnets.
Skin irritation risks
Certain individuals experience a hypersensitivity to Ni, which is the standard coating for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling might lead to skin redness. We suggest wear safety gloves.
Do not overheat magnets
Monitor thermal conditions. Exposing the magnet above 80 degrees Celsius will ruin its properties and strength.
