Physicists Prof. Dr. Ingo Rehberg from the University of Bayreuth and Dr. Peter Blümler from Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz have developed and experimentally validated an innovative approach for ...

Electro-permanent magnets (EPMs) are pretty nifty concepts, and if you aren’t familiar with them, they are permanent magnets with the ability to be electrically switched on or off. Unlike an ...

Magnetic couplings transmit high torque with no physical contact, and they disengage smoothly when load gets too high. Generally speaking, the couplings use magnetic power in three different ways; ...

The planar magnetron is a typical diode mode sputtering cathode consisting of a permanent magnet array behind it. This magnet array is organized in such a fashion to provide a magnetic field that is ...

MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Niron Magnetics, the world’s only producer of powerful rare-earth-free permanent magnets, today announced the grand opening of its commercial pilot plant in Minneapolis.

Continuing headlines about superefficient electric drives might lead some observers to wonder about the future of three-phase induction motors. The truth is that induction motors aren’t going away any ...

We recently published an article on the Power Electronics with the headline, “Unique Motor Uses Only Permanent Magnets – No Electric Power Required.” We received a firestorm of criticism that this ...
