Researchers in the US have successfully demonstrated 3D-printed permanent magnets that outperform bonded rivals – conserving critical materials is an added bonus. Additive manufacturing has caught up ...

Scientists fabricated isotropic, near-net-shape, neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) bonded magnets at DOE’s Manufacturing Demonstration Facility at ORNL using the Big Area Additive Manufacturing (BAAM) ...

From wind turbines and electric motors to sensors and magnetic switching systems: permanent magnets are used in many different electrical applications. The production of these magnets usually involves ...

Researchers have taken a major step toward printed, aligned anisotropic magnets via additive manufacturing processes. The U.S. Department of Energy's Critical Materials Institute has taken a major ...

Today, manufacturing strong magnets is no problem from a technical perspective. It is, however, difficult to produce a permanent magnet with a magnetic field of a specific pre-determined shape. That ...

How can you produce a magnet with exactly the right magnetic field? A research team now has a solution: for the first time, they have created magnets with a 3D printer. Today, manufacturing strong ...

Metal-containing organic molecules that exhibit magnetism could one day offer a lightweight, flexible alternative to the relatively dense metal and ceramic magnets used in today’s engines, turbines, ...

This is magic, big news, both, or neither. It’s so exciting to see magnets behave in this bizarre and wonderful way that we think it’s hard to forecast where this will go. Shown above is a pair of ...

MIT’s tool prints distinct materials to build a working motor ...
