  3. Magnetic switchable device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_switchable_device

    A magnetic switchable device (often called a magnetic base) is a magnetic fixture that uses one or more permanent magnets in a configuration that allows the external field to be turned on or off. They are used in many applications including optics , metalworking , lifting , and robotics, to attach items to metal surfaces in a secure but ...

  4. Electromagnetic lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_lock

    The principle behind an electromagnetic lock is the use of electromagnetism to lock a door when energized. The holding force should be collinear with the load, and the lock and armature plate should be face-to-face to achieve optimal operation. The magnetic lock relies upon some of the basic concepts of electromagnetism.

  5. Magnetic drilling machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_drilling_machine

    Its combination of a stable magnetic base and low RPM help resist or reduce torque forces created by large diameter bits. Magnetic drilling machines with reversible motor and variable speed controls can also perform operations like tapping, countersink and reaming. [1] A magnetic drilling machine with a cross table base can also perform light ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keycard_lock

    The card stores a physical or digital pattern that the door mechanism accepts before disengaging the lock. There are several common types of keycards in use, including the mechanical holecard, barcode , magnetic stripe , Wiegand wire embedded cards, smart card (embedded with a read/write electronic microchip ), RFID , and NFC proximity cards.

  8. Levitron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levitron

    To levitate the top, a plastic plate is placed on top of the magnetic base, and the top is spun on the plate at 25–50 rotations per second (1500–3000 rpm). If too slow, the top falls over and slides off sideways; if too fast it does not orient itself to follow magnetic flux as it moves, and slides off.
