Advantages as well as disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
In addition to their tremendous pulling force, neodymium magnets offer the following advantages:
- They have stable power, and over more than ten years their attraction force decreases symbolically – ~1% (in testing),
- They are very resistant to demagnetization caused by external field interference,
- In other words, due to the shiny nickel coating, the magnet obtains an aesthetic appearance,
- They possess strong magnetic force measurable at the magnet’s surface,
- These magnets tolerate high temperatures, often exceeding 230°C, when properly designed (in relation to form),
- With the option for fine forming and targeted design, these magnets can be produced in multiple shapes and sizes, greatly improving design adaptation,
- Significant impact in cutting-edge sectors – they are used in HDDs, rotating machines, diagnostic apparatus and sophisticated instruments,
- Relatively small size with high magnetic force – neodymium magnets offer strong power in tiny dimensions, which makes them useful in small systems
Disadvantages of neodymium magnets:
- They may fracture when subjected to a strong impact. If the magnets are exposed to mechanical hits, it is advisable to use in a protective enclosure. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from fracture , and at the same time enhances its overall durability,
- High temperatures may significantly reduce the magnetic power of neodymium magnets. Typically, above 80°C, they experience permanent deterioration in performance (depending on form). To prevent this, we offer heat-resistant magnets marked [AH], capable of working up to 230°C, which makes them perfect for high-temperature use,
- Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is common to use sealed magnets made of protective material for outdoor use,
- Using a cover – such as a magnetic holder – is advised due to the restrictions in manufacturing holes directly in the magnet,
- Safety concern from tiny pieces may arise, in case of ingestion, which is significant in the family environments. Furthermore, tiny components from these magnets have the potential to hinder health screening once in the system,
- Higher purchase price is an important factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget-sensitive applications
Breakaway strength of the magnet in ideal conditions – what contributes to it?
The given lifting capacity of the magnet corresponds to the maximum lifting force, assessed in the best circumstances, namely:
- using a steel plate with low carbon content, serving as a magnetic circuit closure
- having a thickness of no less than 10 millimeters
- with a smooth surface
- with no separation
- under perpendicular detachment force
- at room temperature
Key elements affecting lifting force
The lifting capacity of a magnet is influenced by in practice the following factors, from primary to secondary:
- Air gap between the magnet and the plate, since even a very small distance (e.g. 0.5 mm) can cause a drop in lifting force of up to 50%.
- Direction of applied force, because the maximum lifting capacity is achieved under perpendicular application. The force required to slide the magnet along the plate is usually several times lower.
- Thickness of the plate, as a plate that is too thin causes part of the magnetic flux not to be used and to remain wasted in the air.
- Material of the plate, because higher carbon content lowers holding force, while higher iron content increases it. The best choice is steel with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction.
- Surface of the plate, because the more smooth and polished it is, the better the contact and consequently the greater the magnetic saturation.
- Operating temperature, since all permanent magnets have a negative temperature coefficient. This means that at high temperatures they are weaker, while at sub-zero temperatures they become slightly stronger.
* Lifting capacity testing was conducted on a smooth plate of optimal thickness, under perpendicular forces, however under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 5 times. Additionally, even a small distance {between} the magnet and the plate decreases the load capacity.
Caution with Neodymium Magnets
You should keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from the wallet, computer, and TV.
The strong magnetic field generated by neodymium magnets can destroy magnetic media such as floppy disks, video tapes, HDDs, credit cards, magnetic ID cards, cassette tapes, or other devices. They can also destroy videos, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.
Neodymium magnets are not recommended for people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a heart pacemaker. Even if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the entire device.
The magnet is coated with nickel - be careful if you have an allergy.
Studies clearly indicate a small percentage of people who suffer from metal allergies such as nickel. An allergic reaction often manifests as skin redness and rash. If you have a nickel allergy, you can try wearing gloves or simply avoid direct contact with nickel-plated neodymium magnets.
Neodymium magnets are fragile and can easily break as well as shatter.
Neodymium magnets are characterized by significant fragility. Neodymium magnetic are made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel, but they are not as durable as steel. In the event of a collision between two magnets, there may be a scattering of fragments in different directions. Protecting your eyes is crucial in such a situation.
Neodymium magnets are primarily characterized by their significant internal force. They attract to each other, and any object that comes in their way will be affected.
Magnets will crack or crumble with careless connecting to each other. Remember not to approach them to each other or hold them firmly in hands at a distance less than 10 cm.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are highly flammable.
Do not attempt to drill into neodymium magnets. Mechanical processing is also not recommended. If the magnet is crushed into fine powder or dust, it becomes highly flammable.
Never bring neodymium magnets close to a phone and GPS.
Magnetic fields can interfere with compasses and magnetometers used in aviation and maritime navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices. There are neodymium magnets in every smartphone, for example, in the microphone and speakers.
Neodymium magnets are the most powerful magnets ever created, and their power can shock you.
Please review the information on how to handle neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body, as well as prevent unintentional disruption to the magnets.
Neodymium magnets can demagnetize at high temperatures.
Even though magnets have been found to maintain their efficacy up to temperatures of 80°C or 175°F, it's essential to consider that this threshold may fluctuate depending on the magnet's type, configuration, and intended usage.
Magnets should not be treated as toys. Therefore, it is not recommended for children to have access to them.
Remember that neodymium magnets are not toys. Be cautious and make sure no child plays with them. In the case of swallowing multiple magnets simultaneously, they can attract to each other through the intestinal walls. In the worst case scenario, this can lead to death.
