Read MoreThe Future Is Magnetic
A Review of the UK Magnetics Society’s Ewing Event 2018 This year’s 31st Ewing Event, organised by the UK Magnetics Society and sponsored by Bunting Magnetics, focused on the important role of ‘magnets’ in the future. Indeed, it is widely recognised that magnetic fields are the ideal, low-energy way for creating motion. At the event, there…
Read MoreInjection Moulded Plastic Magnet Assembly
Bunting’s engineering design team was asked by a customer to reduce the cost of a magnet assembly. The magnet assembly formed part of a magnetic coupling with a specific torque ratio. However, due to the manufacturing process, the cost of assembly was high. Subsequently, the team looked at an injection moulded plastic magnet assembly. Injection…
Read MoreBespoke Magnetiser for Electronics Application
High strength magnets (e.g. Neodymium Rare Earth) are a vital part in many everyday electric appliances. Charging those small magnets for use in electronics applications often requires a high degree of accuracy. One typical example is where the magnet interacts with a sensor to confirm that a component is correctly in place. Subsequently, Bunting designed…
