  2. 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 temporary way.

  3. Aluminium joining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_joining

    Aluminium alloys are often used due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, low cost, high thermal and electrical conductivity.There are a variety of techniques to join aluminium including mechanical fasteners, welding, adhesive bonding, brazing, soldering and friction stir welding (FSW), etc. Various techniques are used based on the cost and strength required for the joint.

  4. Magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet

    Magnets can be used in scrap and salvage operations to separate magnetic metals (iron, cobalt, and nickel) from non-magnetic metals (aluminum, non-ferrous alloys, etc.). The same idea can be used in the so-called "magnet test", in which a car chassis is inspected with a magnet to detect areas repaired using fiberglass or plastic putty.

  5. Programmable magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmable_magnet

    For the small size applications, correlated magnets can be used in positioning devices, consumer electronics, magnetic couplings, and vehicle attachment. [4] Potential applications include attach and release work-holding mechanisms, magnetic separators, fluid seals and valves, motor and motion control, factory automation, prosthetics, security devices, and power generation.

  6. Magnetic flow meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_flow_meter

    The magnetic flow meter requires a conducting fluid, for example, water that contains ions, and an electrical insulating pipe surface, for example, a rubber-lined steel tube. If the magnetic field direction were constant, electrochemical and other effects at the electrodes would make the potential difference difficult to distinguish from the ...

  9. Alnico - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alnico

    The metal bar (bottom) is a keeper, which is placed across the poles when the magnet is not in use. This helps to preserve the magnetization. This helps to preserve the magnetization. Alnico is a family of iron alloys which, in addition to iron are composed primarily of aluminium (Al), nickel (Ni), and cobalt (Co), hence the acronym [ 1 ] al-ni ...
