This is most suitable for low coercive materials in simple two-pole configurations. Block Diagram of a half-cycle magnetizer. Block Diagram of a DC magnetizer. The output, controlled to a higher degree or resolution than in a magnet charger, may be in the form of a unidirectional pulse or a dampened wave pulse train. The choice of output depends on the magnet material being processed.
Fixtures are available in many forms depending on the magnet being processed and other factors.
It may be a single loop of copper, a coil, or a combination of copper conductors with iron to act as a flux carrying media. Certain applications will require that liquid or air cooling provisions be provided in the fixture to maintain a safe operating temperature. Conditioning fixtures may be similar in construction. The following is a list of questions that need to be addressed before any magnet processing equipment can be selected. This will determine the amount of magnetizing force that will be required to assure saturation.
