Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Advantages
- They virtually do not lose power, because even after ten years the performance loss is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
- Magnets perfectly resist against demagnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- Thanks to the shimmering finish, the surface of Ni-Cu-Ni, gold, or silver-plated gives an professional appearance,
- Magnetic induction on the top side of the magnet turns out to be maximum,
- Due to their durability and thermal resistance, neodymium magnets can operate (depending on the shape) even at high temperatures reaching 230°C or more...
- Considering the ability of accurate molding and customization to individualized solutions, neodymium magnets can be produced in a broad palette of forms and dimensions, which makes them more universal,
- Fundamental importance in advanced technology sectors – they are utilized in HDD drives, motor assemblies, medical devices, also multitasking production systems.
- Thanks to their power density, small magnets offer high operating force, in miniature format,
Weaknesses
- They are fragile upon heavy impacts. To avoid cracks, it is worth protecting magnets in special housings. Such protection not only protects the magnet but also improves its resistance to damage
- Neodymium magnets decrease their power under the influence of heating. As soon as 80°C is exceeded, many of them start losing their force. Therefore, we recommend our special magnets marked [AH], which maintain durability even at temperatures up to 230°C
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. For applications outside, it is recommended to use protective magnets, such as those in rubber or plastics, which prevent oxidation as well as corrosion.
- We recommend cover - magnetic holder, due to difficulties in realizing nuts inside the magnet and complex forms.
- Potential hazard resulting from small fragments of magnets can be dangerous, when accidentally swallowed, which gains importance in the context of child safety. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these products can complicate diagnosis medical when they are in the body.
- High unit price – neodymium magnets cost more than other types of magnets (e.g. ferrite), which hinders application in large quantities
Lifting parameters
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what it depends on?
- using a base made of low-carbon steel, functioning as a magnetic yoke
- whose thickness is min. 10 mm
- characterized by even structure
- with total lack of distance (no coatings)
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at ambient temperature room level
Lifting capacity in practice – influencing factors
- Distance – the presence of any layer (paint, dirt, air) interrupts the magnetic circuit, which reduces capacity rapidly (even by 50% at 0.5 mm).
- Load vector – maximum parameter is reached only during perpendicular pulling. The shear force of the magnet along the surface is typically 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. Cast iron may attract less.
- Surface quality – the more even the plate, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Roughness creates an air distance.
- Thermal environment – temperature increase causes a temporary drop of induction. It is worth remembering the maximum operating temperature for a given model.
Lifting capacity was measured using a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular detachment force, however under parallel forces the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Additionally, even a slight gap between the magnet’s surface and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Safety rules for work with NdFeB magnets
Demagnetization risk
Control the heat. Exposing the magnet to high heat will permanently weaken its magnetic structure and pulling force.
Do not underestimate power
Before starting, check safety instructions. Sudden snapping can break the magnet or hurt your hand. Think ahead.
Nickel coating and allergies
Some people suffer from a sensitization to Ni, which is the typical protective layer for NdFeB magnets. Extended handling can result in an allergic reaction. We recommend wear protective gloves.
Safe distance
Intense magnetic fields can destroy records on credit cards, hard drives, and storage devices. Stay away of at least 10 cm.
Threat to navigation
GPS units and smartphones are extremely sensitive to magnetism. Direct contact with a powerful NdFeB magnet can decalibrate the sensors in your phone.
Danger to pacemakers
Warning for patients: Powerful magnets affect electronics. Keep at least 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.
Do not drill into magnets
Mechanical processing of NdFeB material poses a fire hazard. Neodymium dust oxidizes rapidly with oxygen and is difficult to extinguish.
Pinching danger
Mind your fingers. Two large magnets will snap together instantly with a force of several hundred kilograms, crushing anything in their path. Be careful!
Do not give to children
Neodymium magnets are not suitable for play. Eating multiple magnets may result in them pinching intestinal walls, which poses a severe health hazard and requires urgent medical intervention.
Shattering risk
Watch out for shards. Magnets can fracture upon violent connection, launching sharp fragments into the air. Eye protection is mandatory.
