SmCo Magnets
Samarium-Cobalt (SmCo) magnets are a type of rare-earth permanent magnet known for their exceptional magnetic strength, thermal stability, and resistance to demagnetization. Manufactured through a sintering process, SmCo magnets are extremely hard and brittle, requiring grinding for shaping. Despite their higher cost and limited alloy availability, they are ideal for demanding environments where performance and reliability are critical.
- Rare-Earth Composition: Made from Samarium and Cobalt, offering high magnetic performance.
- High Energy Density: Enables miniaturization of magnetic components without compromising strength.
- Excellent Thermal Stability: Operates effectively up to +250°C, making them suitable for high-temperature applications.
- Superior Demagnetization Resistance: Maintains magnetic integrity even under strong opposing magnetic fields.
- Precision Manufacturing: Produced via sintering and finished by grinding due to material brittleness.
- Aerospace & Defense: Navigation systems, actuators, and sensors exposed to high temperatures and vibration.
- Medical Devices: MRI machines and surgical instruments requiring stable magnetic fields.
- Automotive: High-performance motors and sensors in electric and hybrid vehicles.
- Industrial Equipment: Magnetic couplings, pumps, and motors operating in harsh environments.
- Telecommunications: Waveguide isolators and circulators in microwave communication systems.
