Axial Flux Motor vs. Radial Flux Motor Axial flux and radial flux motors are two common motor types with distinct designs and characteristics. Each has advantages that make it suitable for different applications, from automotive to industrial uses. Here’s an in-depth comparison of their construction, performance, and ideal use cases. 1. Design and Construction – Axial Flux Motor: In an axial flux…

How Does Air Gap Affect Magnet Selection? When selecting a magnet for a specific application, understanding the concept of air gap is crucial. An air gap refers to any non-magnetic material that separates a magnet from the ferromagnetic object it is intended to attract. This separation can significantly impact the performance of the magnet, primarily by affecting its holding force. 1. Definition…

How Air Gaps Impact Magnet Strength In the world of neodymium magnets, the air gap refers to the precise distance separating a rare earth magnet and its intended attachment surface. In most cases, this intended surface would be another magnet or ferromagnetic object, such as a steel disc. Air gaps are a big deal because they give you an effective way to manipulate, calibrate and control the…

What to Do When Your Dishwasher Isn’t Draining

You did everything right to properly clean and properly load your dishwasher. So why is there a pool of standing water at the bottom of the machine? What can you do when your trusty dishwasher refuses to drain? If the last thing you want is to shell out for a repair person—or worse, a whole new machine—you might be in… Read more…

Electromagnetic Transmissions Solenoids Holding Magnets

Electromagnetic Transmissions Solenoids Holding Magnets Solenoids for simple operation Single-acting solenoids are for common applications. The magnetic field delivered by the coil upon power-up attracts the core. Then, the nucleus becomes free again in the absence of current. They are thus available in different designs, folded sheet, square profiled, machined in the mass. Solenoids for double…

Round and Rectangular Electromagnets

Round and Rectangular Electromagnets Round and Rectangular Flat-Faced Electromagnets are available in a variety of sizes. Flat-Faced magnets should only be used on flat, smooth material where the entire magnet face is in contact. They can be used in manually operated or automated applications. Magnets listed utilize 12 volt D.C. current (24VDC and 110VDC are available by request). Standard Leads…
