Ryan Haig-Godden Reflects on MMA24
Ryan Haig-Godden, Bunting’s Development Engineer, reflects on a memorable visit to CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, while attending the event of the UK Magnetics Society’s Magnetic Materials and Applications 2024. “In 2018, if someone had told my eighteen-year-old self that in 2024 I would not only get to go to CERN, but I would go representing…
Read MoreMagnetising Automotive Traction Motor Magnet Rotors
Bunting has designed and built a bespoke industrial magnetiser for an automotive electric vehicle application. The latest industrial magnetiser magnetises a permanent magnet rotor assembly for a high-end automotive traction motor. Although Bunting builds a standard range of industrial magnetisers, the increasingly complex magnet assembly configurations and end-user requirements are driving the demand for bespoke…

Bunting is supporting the Brunel Solar Team with specialist magnets and technical support in the development of their Nuna 12S solar powered car. The Nuna 12S will complete with other teams in the 16th Sasol Solar Challenge (September 2024), driving from Johannesburg to Cape Town in South Africa. The Brunel Solar Team promote sustainability through…
Read MoreWhat are Soft Magnetics?
When we added Soft Magnetics to our magnetic products portfolio, one of the most common questions we were then asked was ‘What are soft magnetics?’ Simply, soft magnetic materials are those that can be easily magnetised and demagnetised and their primary use is to enhance and/or channel the flux produced by an electric current. Soft…
