Patent ID: 8866572

Claim:
A magnetization apparatus for random magnetizing a magnetizable thin sheet and object comprised of (a) at least two magnetically-soft pole pieces; (b) at least two pole piece pairs, each of the pairs consisting of a North and a South permanent magnet pole piece of a random (magnetic) poles per inch and each of the at least two pole piece pairs being of different pole per inch strength, the different and random permanent poles which are contiguously placed on each side of the magnetically-soft pole piece(s), whereby the soft piece(s) creating a defined and random strength and space between the different and random permanent pole pieces; (c) a means for containing a totality of pole pieces comprised of the soft pole piece(s) and the permanent magnetic pole pieces into a specific configuration which acts as a magnetic source; and, (d) a means for moving the sheet in a close proximity to the magnetization apparatus wherein the apparatus provides a randomized magnetic flux to the magnetizable thin sheet defined by the different and random permanent pole pieces and the defined space of the soft pole(s) to produce a randomized magnetic field that can vary in magnetic strength based on magnetization quality of the material and number of the soft pole piece(s) and the volume of permanent magnet material.
