Magnetising Fixture Winding for Magnet Ring Sensor Project
Bunting’s engineering team work with companies on many magnet product designs, from concept through to manufacture. This project focused on the feasibility of designing, manufacturing, and supplying a permanent magnet ring to produce a sinusoidally varying flux density waveform for a sensor application. A sine wave or sinusoid is a mathematical curve that describes a…
Read MoreBunting Magnet Test and Development Centre Investment
Bunting has invested in expanding their Test and Development Centre at Berkhamsted in the UK where they specialise in the design, test and build of a wide range of magnet and magnetic technologies. Bunting’s Berkhamsted operation is responsible for the design and manufacture of magnets, magnet assemblies, and magnetising equipment. The range of applications for…
Read MoreExhibition Success for Bunting-Berkhamsted
Exhibiting at two shows, in different parts of Europe, over the same two days, was challenging for the Bunting-Berkhamsted team, but proved exceptionally successful. Whilst Matthew Swallow managed the stand at the Cenex LCV event at UTAC Millbrook in the UK, Stefano Maiaroli and Dr Chris Riley were in Pordenone in Italy at the Coiltech…
Read MoreMagnetising and Magnet Technology at Coiltech Italia 2021
With a growth in sales of magnetising equipment and magnet assemblies into Italy in 2021, Bunting-Berkhamsted is exhibiting at the 12th Coiltech Italian 2021 international trade fair (stand 8-D27). Coiltech also hosts the World Magnetic Conference. The exhibition focuses on materials and machinery for the production and maintenance of electric motors, generators, power and distribution…
Read MoreMagnets and the Curie Temperature
The term “Curie temperature (Tc)” or “Curie point” gets frequently mentioned when discussing magnets and magnetic properties. The Curie temperature relates to the maximum temperature a material can reach before losing its magnetic properties. On reaching a magnetic material’s Curie temperature, the spontaneous magnetisation in the material drops to zero. At this point, the material…
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 MoreMagnetiser and Magnet Setter Export Success
Successful implementation of an overseas business development strategy has resulted in orders from Italy for a bespoke Industrial Magnetiser, complete with control cabinet, and a Magnet Setter. Bunting’s UK engineering design team will design, build and test the magnetisers, control and magnet setter. Industrial Magnetisers and Magnet Setters enable the charging of both permanent magnets…
Read MoreMagnets and Magnet Assemblies for Defence Applications
Globally, permanent rare earth magnets play a major role in defence technology. They feature in a diverse range of applications including missile guidance systems, disk-drive motors in aircraft and tanks, satellite communications, and radar and sonar systems. Indeed, rare earth magnets are a critical component of a vast number of cutting-edge defence applications and a…
Read MoreBunting Sponsors Electric & Hybrid Aerospace Technology Virtual ‘Live’
The future of electric and hybrid aircraft technology is the focus for presenters and delegates at the Electric & Hybrid Aerospace Technology Virtual ‘Live’ conference (April 20 & 21, 2021). The 2-day online event provides a platform for aerospace engineers, research academics, aircraft manufacturers, others working on developing this ultra-low-emission, ‘green’ transportation technology. The move…
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…
