Shapes and Types of Alnico Magnets

Alnico magnets come in various shapes and types to suit different types of applications. For example, you can find Alnico magnets in small toys and electric guitars. Different shapes of Alnico magnets can be produced by sintering or casting, of which casting is the most common method. The following are some different shapes and types of AlNiCo magnets.

Shapes and Types of Alnico Magnets Shapes and Types of Alnico Magnets

1. Bar:

Bar magnets are commonly used in schools for experimental applications, like demonstrating magnetic fields. Because of the small area of the poles, they are the weakest shape but the most common shape. Bar magnets enjoy a wide range of applications such as being used in automation, separation, and holding.

2. Cylinder:

Cylindrical magnets are commonly used in seals, sensors, coin collectors, and guitar pickups. Amplifiers, actuators, and motor applications use alnico magnets for their flux density. Sometimes, cylinder magnets are used for medical applications due to their strength and ability to be adjusted. 

3. Horseshoe:

Horseshoe magnets are bar magnets that are formed into a U shape, which makes them strong because their magnetic poles point in the same direction. Depending on their strength, they can be used to pick up metal objects of any size.

4. Pot:

Pot magnets are often used for holding applications. They are an alternative to the normal fixture and fastening methods. Unlike permanent approaches, they can be easily removed and relocated.

5. Ring:

The ring magnet is round with a hole in the middle and is sometimes called a donut magnet. The location of their north and south poles depends on how they are polarized. One half of the magnet is always north, and the other half is always south. Certain kinds of polarization create magnets that are split into quarters or eighths. Ring magnets are commonly used in scientific experiments and medical applications.
