Magnets - Multi Purpose are specifically designed to not work with other products like sensors and encoders. A magnet is ideal for clamping and positional applications that produce a magnetic field and attract unlike poles and repel like poles. Magnets are used for a variety of applications and are highly versatile.
Available Magnets
Enrgtech offers various magnets-multipurpose of the round, square, rectangular, flat strip, and cylindrical shapes. We offer highly versatile ring magnets with threaded holes for secure mating, inbuilt hook magnets for fixing and repositioning applications, pot magnets, a bar magnet, horseshoe-shaped magnets, and neodymium magnets. Neodymium magnets are potent magnets with features that attract any ferromagnetic material.
Types of Magnets
Magnets are divided into three types, as given below:
- Electromagnets
- Permanent magnet, and
- Temporary magnet
Materials of Magnet
Magnets are ferromagnetic metals that fall into ‘soft’ materials such as nickel and iron. These materials can be magnetised; however, they do not stay magnetised for a long time. On the other hand, hard materials such as ferrite can stay magnetised.
Pull Force of a Magnet
Pull force is defined as the force that relates to the magnet’s power and capability to push or pull other objects. The force required to break or free the attached magnet from the steel plate determines a magnet pull force.
How Can We Measure the Strength of a Magnet?
The strength of the magnetic field is determined by the unit of measurement, gauss. The higher the value, the more magnetism lines come out of the magnet.
Are all Metals Magnetic?
Metallic materials are magnetic, but not all metals are magnetic. As iron is magnetic, and so steel consists of iron, a magnet will attract these metals. Nonmagnetic metals include copper, gold, silver, and aluminium.
Uses of Magnets
Magnets-multipurpose are used for a variety of applications, including:
- Constructing magnetic needles and a mariner’s compass.
- Permanent magnets in generators, electric motors, and electric accelerators.
- Electromagnets in electric bells, speakers, and electric cranes.
- Separation of iron filling from other solid mixtures.
