What 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…

Bunting and Force Engineering Design Magnetic Rollercoaster Brake

Magnetic Rollercoaster Brake designed and built for Force Engineering

Bunting and Force Engineering have collaborated to design and build a novel magnetic brake for use on rollercoasters.  During the two-year project, the project team considered different permanent magnet arrangements required to generate the braking force needed to slow and stop a rollercoaster cart.  The final design used high-power, low-weight neodymium magnets. As a leading…
