DailyMag Sintered Magnet

Sintered magnets are manufactured using the process called powder metallurgy. Through “liquid phase sintering,” a proper composition is ground into a fine powder, compressed, and heated to achieve densification. As a result, they are called sintered magnets. This process is used to create ferrite, neodymium-iron-boron (neo), and samarium cobalt (SmCo) magnets.

DailyMag is a leading sintered magnet manufacturer since 2005. We supply high-quality sintered magnets across the world at reasonable prices. Our sintered magnets come in a variety of shapes, sizes, coatings, and materials such as SmCo, NdFeB, ferrite, etc.

Processing of Sintered Magnet

Sintered magnets are produced using the powder metallurgical process. The process works by pulverizing the magnet alloy finely. After that, the easy magnetization axis will be oriented in the magnetic field. Then, the material will be pressed and sintered.

In comparison to bond magnets that are manufactured by mixing in plastic, sintered magnets have superior heat resistance and high magnetic characteristics because there are no plastic and other non-magnetic section.

Processing of Sintered Magnet
Sintered Hard Ferrite Magnets

Sintered Hard Ferrite Magnets

Sintered hard ferrite magnets are manufactured from strontium carbonate or barium carbonate and iron oxide. Individual raw materials will be combined, ground, and calcined or pre-sintered in accordance with a recipe. Using various intermediary phases, a hexagonal ferrite phase such as SrFe12O19 or BaFe12O19 is produced. The previously sintered granulate is ground even more before being sintered or pressed in a magnetic field, either dry or wet, or even without a magnetic field (isotropic). Hard ferrites have brittleness, hardness, and other proper mechanical properties since they are ceramic materials.

 

Sintered Magnet Machining

Sintered magnets may undergo some machining processes such as:

  • Wire cutting
  • Grinding them parallel and smooth
  • ID or OD grinding
  • Slicing them into smaller parts
  • Other machining processes

All of our machining processes are done carefully in order to minimize cracking and chipping.

Manufacturing Processes

Refinement/Separation
Refinement/Separation

In this process, high-purity rare earth oxides will be refined and separated from rare earth ore.

Raw Materials Measurement and Melting
Raw Materials Measurement and Melting

To create the desired composition of sintered magnets, additives like iron, rare earth metals, cobalt, and other materials are measured.

After that, the materials are melted in the vacuum induction furnace. And in the induction furnace, the materials are heated to a high frequency and will be melted.

Pulverization
Pulverization

After going through different processing stages, the ingots are grounded or pulverized into particles that measure several microns in size.

And to avoid oxidation, the tiny particles will be protected by argon and nitrogen.

Compacting
Compacting

After pulverization, the magnetic particles will be placed in jig and a magnetic field is applied while pressing the magnets into shape. This procedure results in magnetic anisotropy. There are 2 different pressing techniques:

  • perpendicular pressing – pressing magnets in a perpendicular magnetic field
  • parallel pressing – pressing magnets in a parallel magnetic field

The perpendicular press technique is used to produce a higher-performance magnet. And the parallel press method must be used to produce ring magnets.

Sintering
Sintering

Sintering furnaces are used to apply heat treatment to pressed ingots. The ingots’ true density is 100% after sintering. Before sintering, the ingots have roughly 50% of true density.

The sintering process causes the ingots’ measurements to decrease by roughly 70% to 80%. Their volume will also decrease by roughly 50%.

Magnetic Properties Inspection
Magnetic Properties Inspection

After the sintering and aging operations are finished, the essential magnetic characteristics are established. The most important measurements, such as coercivity, maximum energy product, and remnant flux density will be recorded.

And only the magnets that have passed the inspection are then taken to the subsequent processes such as assembly and machining processes.

How Can High-Temperature Sintering Affect the Magnetic Performance of Sintered Magnets?

High-temperature sintering can improve the magnetic performance of sintered magnets due to the:

  • Increase in sintered density
  • Greater sinter neck formation
