Permanent magnet fixing for industry

1 min read

A range of high quality permanent magnets offers an often simple solution to many problems of long-lasting fixing. The range from Elesa UK includes magnets in a variety of materials including sintered hard ferrite, aluminium nickel cobalt, samarium cobalt and neodymium iron boron.

Thanks to their structure the magnets have one adhesive surface only with poles optimised and arranged in such a way that the whole magnetic energy is focused on the adhesive surface. The effect in the area of the magnetic field is limited by a shielded system, avoiding the magnetisation of the surrounding objects. This type of magnet can offer a range from low to extremely high adhesive force, making them ideal for location and temporary fixing of workpieces or panels or for sensor holding, such as on conveyors or other machinery. Moving down the scale, applications can be as varied as supermarket labelling, locating presentation materials, white boards, cabinet door closure or magnetic filtration of metal particles in engine sumps or in machinery and equipment. These high quality permanent magnets are available in flat format with or without, steel or stainless steel housings in lacquer or thermoplastic coating and in cylinder format with brass housed sandwich configuration. U-magnets and cylinder magnets in red lacquer with pass-through facility are also part of the standard series.
