Advantages and disadvantages of neodymium magnets NdFeB.
Apart from their consistent magnetic energy, neodymium magnets have these key benefits:
- They virtually do not lose strength, because even after ten years, the decline in efficiency is only ~1% (in laboratory conditions),
- Their ability to resist magnetic interference from external fields is impressive,
- Thanks to the shiny finish and silver coating, they have an elegant appearance,
- Magnetic induction on the surface of these magnets is impressively powerful,
- With the right combination of compounds, they reach excellent thermal stability, enabling operation at or above 230°C (depending on the structure),
- With the option for fine forming and targeted design, these magnets can be produced in various shapes and sizes, greatly improving design adaptation,
- Key role in new technology industries – they are utilized in data storage devices, electromechanical systems, healthcare devices or even technologically developed systems,
- Compactness – despite their small size, they generate strong force, making them ideal for precision applications
Disadvantages of magnetic elements:
- They may fracture when subjected to a heavy impact. If the magnets are exposed to external force, it is suggested to place them in a protective enclosure. The steel housing, in the form of a holder, protects the magnet from cracks and additionally enhances its overall resistance,
- They lose strength at elevated temperatures. Most neodymium magnets experience permanent loss in strength when heated above 80°C (depending on the geometry and height). However, we offer special variants with high temperature resistance that can operate up to 230°C or higher,
- Due to corrosion risk in humid conditions, it is advisable to use sealed magnets made of plastic for outdoor use,
- The use of a protective casing or external holder is recommended, since machining multi-axis shapes in neodymium magnets is not feasible,
- Health risk linked to microscopic shards may arise, in case of ingestion, which is significant in the protection of children. Moreover, minuscule fragments from these assemblies have the potential to disrupt scanning once in the system,
- Higher purchase price is an important factor to consider compared to ceramic magnets, especially in budget-sensitive applications
Optimal lifting capacity of a neodymium magnet – what it depends on?
The given holding capacity of the magnet represents the highest holding force, calculated under optimal conditions, specifically:
- with mild steel, used as a magnetic flux conductor
- with a thickness of minimum 10 mm
- with a polished side
- with zero air gap
- with vertical force applied
- in normal thermal conditions
Key elements affecting lifting force
The lifting capacity of a magnet is influenced by in practice the following factors, according to their importance:
- 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 suitable thickness, under perpendicular forces, whereas under shearing force the load capacity is reduced by as much as 75%. Moreover, even a small distance {between} the magnet’s surface and the plate reduces the holding force.
Caution with Neodymium Magnets
Keep neodymium magnets away from GPS and smartphones.
Neodymium magnets are a source of intense magnetic fields that cause interference with magnetometers and compasses used in navigation, as well as internal compasses of smartphones and GPS devices.
Magnets made of neodymium are fragile and can easily break and shatter.
Neodymium magnets are fragile as well as will break if allowed to collide with each other, even from a distance of a few centimeters. Despite being made of metal and coated with a shiny nickel plating, they are not as hard as steel. At the moment of collision between the magnets, small sharp metal pieces can be propelled in various directions at high speed. Eye protection is recommended.
Neodymium magnets should not be near people with pacemakers.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that can interfere with the operation of a heart pacemaker. However, if the magnetic field does not affect the device, it can damage its components or deactivate the device when it is in a magnetic field.
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 attract each other within a distance of several to about 10 cm from each other. Remember not to put fingers between magnets or alternatively in their path when they attract. Depending on how large the neodymium magnets are, they can lead to a cut or alternatively a fracture.
Make sure not to bring neodymium magnets close to the TV, wallet, and computer HDD.
Neodymium magnets produce strong magnetic fields that 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 devices like video players, televisions, CRT computer monitors. Do not forget to keep neodymium magnets at a safe distance from these electronic devices.
Neodymium magnets can become demagnetized at high temperatures.
While Neodymium magnets can lose their magnetic properties at high temperatures, it's important to note that the extent of this effect can vary based on factors such as the magnet's material, shape, and intended application.
Neodymium magnets are over 10 times more powerful than ferrite magnets (the ones in speakers), and their power can shock you.
Read the information on our website on how to properly utilize neodymium magnets and avoid significant harm to your body and unintentional damage to the magnets.
Magnets should not be treated as toys. Therefore, it is not recommended for youngest children to have access to them.
Neodymium magnets are not toys. You cannot allow them to become toys for children. In such a situation, surgery is necessary to remove them. In the worst case scenario, it can result in death.
The magnet is coated with nickel. Therefore, exercise caution 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.
Dust and powder from neodymium magnets are flammable.
Avoid drilling or mechanical processing of neodymium magnets. Once crushed into fine powder or dust, this material becomes highly flammable.
Pay attention!
