Coatings for Neodymium Magnets
Nearly every neodymium magnet will be plated or coated and, as the most powerful permanent magnet available, they are used in many different applications. However, they possess physical characteristics that require them to be plated or coated in order to protect them from damage. In their raw form, neodymium magnets are quite brittle, and as…

Read MoreMagnetics Importance for Electric Vehicles at Cenex-LCV
Magnets and magnet assemblies, both essential for transport electrification, are the focus for Bunting on stand C4-106 at Cenex-LCV (UTAC Millbrook Proving Ground, Bedfordshire, UK, 23rd to 24th September 2021). In particular focus is the technique of magnetizing magnet assemblies after construction, which offers a wide range of benefits including accuracy and safety. The LCV…
Read MorePermanent Magnet Motors Providing Key Benefits
Permanent magnet motors are electric motors using permanent magnets in addition to windings. Such motor designs are more efficient than induction motors or motors with field windings for certain high-efficiency applications such as electric vehicles and small electric motors such as found on drones and in car windshield wipers. Both AC and DC motors benefit…
Read MoreEverlube Coating Protects Neodymium Magnets
The new Everlube anti-corrosion magnet coating combats the increasingly arduous working environments for magnets and magnetic components. The Everlube coating prevents oxidation and deterioration of high-powered permanent neodymium rare earth magnets. The Everlube coating was originally developed as a brand of dry film lubricant products specifically designed to enhance and improve the performance of critical…
