Magnetizing Products & Equipment

Magnetizers

Oersted Technology magnetizers are extremely versatile and feature our patented ECS (Electronic Capacitance Switching) technology, as well as built-in peak current meters. With one Oersted Technology magnetizer, you can eliminate the need for several fixed-capacitance machines.

Model 330B – Max. Energy: 32,000 Joules

Model 340B – Max. Energy: 25,600 Joules

Model 345B – Max. Energy: 12,800 Joules

Model 350B – Max. Energy: 6,400 Joules

Model 412B – Max. Energy: 3,200 Joules

The magnetizing fixture converts the electrical energy produced by the magnetizer into the magnetic energy necessary to magnetize a given part. Oersted Technology magnetizing fixtures are custom-designed for your part geometry and application. Fixtures can be designed either for use with Oersted Technology magnetizers or with magnetizers made by other manufacturers.

Magnetics Products

A Helmholtz coil is used to either accurately measure or
accurately produce a static magnetic field. Typical applications include quality testing of magnetic parts and generation of a steady magnetic field for laboratory purposes.

Fluxmeters measure the change of magnetic flux (flux density times area) by integrating voltage from a coil with time. They can be used to measure the average field in inaccessible places. Connected to a Helmholtz coil, they are used to measure the magnetic moment (flux density times volume) of permanent magnets, which is useful for quality control.

Other Equipment

Conditioners and demagnetizers adjust magnet parts so that their field strength and overall performance within an application is repeatable from one part to the next. The part can be adjusted to produce a particular field level or to meet a general tolerance specification.

An automated system allows the magnetizing process to be integrated into a production environment. Parts may be magnetized as they are travelling down a conveyor belt or loaded onto an indexing mechanism (for multipole magnetization).
