Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets.
Pros
- Their strength remains stable, and after around 10 years it drops only by ~1% (according to research),
- Magnets effectively defend themselves against demagnetization caused by foreign field sources,
- A magnet with a metallic gold surface looks better,
- Neodymium magnets generate maximum magnetic induction on a their surface, which ensures high operational effectiveness,
- Neodymium magnets are characterized by very high magnetic induction on the magnet surface and are able to act (depending on the form) even at a temperature of 230°C or more...
- In view of the ability of precise shaping and customization to individualized solutions, NdFeB magnets can be modeled in a wide range of shapes and sizes, which amplifies use scope,
- Fundamental importance in future technologies – they are utilized in mass storage devices, electric drive systems, advanced medical instruments, as well as industrial machines.
- Relatively small size with high pulling force – neodymium magnets offer high power in compact dimensions, which enables their usage in compact constructions
Cons
- 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 improves its resistance to damage
- We warn that neodymium magnets can reduce their power at high temperatures. To prevent this, we recommend our specialized [AH] magnets, which work effectively even at 230°C.
- When exposed to humidity, magnets usually rust. To use them in conditions 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 threads inside the magnet and complicated forms.
- Health risk related to microscopic parts of magnets pose a threat, in case of ingestion, which is particularly important in the aspect of protecting the youngest. It is also worth noting that tiny parts of these magnets can be problematic in diagnostics medical when they are in the body.
- With budget limitations the cost of neodymium magnets can be a barrier,
Holding force characteristics
Magnetic strength at its maximum – what it depends on?
- with the application of a yoke made of low-carbon steel, guaranteeing maximum field concentration
- with a cross-section minimum 10 mm
- characterized by even structure
- without the slightest clearance between the magnet and steel
- for force acting at a right angle (pull-off, not shear)
- at ambient temperature approx. 20 degrees Celsius
Determinants of lifting force in real conditions
- Gap between surfaces – every millimeter of separation (caused e.g. by varnish or unevenness) diminishes the magnet efficiency, often by half at just 0.5 mm.
- Loading method – catalog parameter refers to detachment vertically. When applying parallel force, the magnet holds significantly lower power (often approx. 20-30% of nominal force).
- Element thickness – for full efficiency, the steel must be adequately massive. Paper-thin metal restricts the lifting capacity (the magnet "punches through" it).
- Chemical composition of the base – low-carbon steel attracts best. Alloy steels decrease magnetic permeability and lifting capacity.
- Surface structure – the more even the plate, the better the adhesion and higher the lifting capacity. Unevenness acts like micro-gaps.
- Thermal factor – high temperature reduces pulling force. Exceeding the limit temperature can permanently damage the magnet.
Lifting capacity was determined with the use of a steel plate with a smooth surface of optimal thickness (min. 20 mm), under perpendicular pulling force, in contrast under attempts to slide the magnet the holding force is lower. Additionally, even a small distance between the magnet and the plate reduces the lifting capacity.
Precautions when working with neodymium magnets
Handling guide
Before starting, check safety instructions. Uncontrolled attraction can break the magnet or injure your hand. Be predictive.
Allergic reactions
Medical facts indicate that nickel (standard magnet coating) is a strong allergen. For allergy sufferers, avoid direct skin contact and select coated magnets.
Operating temperature
Standard neodymium magnets (N-type) lose magnetization when the temperature exceeds 80°C. This process is irreversible.
Impact on smartphones
GPS units and smartphones are highly susceptible to magnetic fields. Direct contact with a strong magnet can ruin the internal compass in your phone.
Medical interference
Warning for patients: Powerful magnets disrupt medical devices. Maintain minimum 30 cm distance or request help to work with the magnets.
Fire risk
Mechanical processing of NdFeB material poses a fire risk. Neodymium dust reacts violently with oxygen and is hard to extinguish.
Fragile material
NdFeB magnets are sintered ceramics, which means they are very brittle. Impact of two magnets will cause them shattering into shards.
Magnetic media
Data protection: Neodymium magnets can ruin data carriers and sensitive devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, timepieces).
No play value
Product intended for adults. Small elements can be swallowed, leading to severe trauma. Store away from kids and pets.
Serious injuries
Large magnets can crush fingers in a fraction of a second. Do not place your hand between two strong magnets.
