Arnold Magnetic Technologies Injection Molded Magnets Plastiform®

Injection molded magnets are essentially fully dense magnetic powders blended with a variety of polymer base materials. Depending on the combination of magnetic material and polymer selected, a wide range of final material properties are possible.

Arnold typically works with a wide ranging combination of magnetic materials and polymers including:

• Ferrite
• NdFeB
• SmCo
• Nylon 6
• Nylon 12
• PPS

Selecting the right combination will impact the resistance of the product to moisture absorption, physical strength, magnetic properties, and even maximum operating temperature.

Injection molded magnets can be formed from very simple shapes to very complex shapes. Depending on the magnetic material, the parts may require magnetic orientation during the injection molding process to optimize the magnetic properties.

PLASTIFORM® bonded magnets represent the culmination of years of research and development focused on enhancing the magnetic and physical properties of polymerized magnet material.

Since their development in the mid-60s, bonded magnet materials have evolved from low-energy and limited geometries into high-energy materials of nearly unlimited versatility. From flexible rolls and sheets magnetized with dense multi-pole patterns, to intricate injection- and insert-molded shapes, ArnoldPLASTIFORM® bonded magnets offer unprecedented design versatility and uncompromising quality.

In addition to the highest remanence and coercivity properties available in the industry, ArnoldPLASTIFORM® magnets offer superior thermal characteristics, dimensional stability and solvent resistance.

Because of their design versatility, exceptional performance and high quality, ArnoldPLASTIFORM® bonded magnets offer significant systems savings over conventional magnets.

Arnold Magnetic Technologies offers bonded ferrite and bonded rare earth materials to meet a wide variety of requirements for motor stators and rotors, actuators, instrumentation, armatures and a diverse selection of holding magnets used in automotive, medical, defense and commercial applications.
