An Introduction to the Halbach Array
Halbach Arrays feature in many common-day devices such as brushless DC motors and even the Inductrack Maglev train. The Halbach Array is a specific arrangement of permanent magnets that cancels the magnetic field to nearly zero on one side, but significantly increases the strength of the magnetic field on the opposite side. This magnetic phenomenon…

Magnets and Magnetic Assemblies are a key component in many industrial sensing applications. Typical Magnetic Sensor applications include contact-less current sensing, linear and angular position, and rotation sensing. The Magnetic Assembly The Bunting engineering team designed the bespoke magnetic assembly for a specific customer application. The magnetic assembly consists of: Alnico ring magnet; Steel core; The…
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…
