Learn about characterizing additively manufactured permanent magnets

This new application note discusses the use of first-order reversal curve (FORC) measurements and vibrating sample magnetometry for characterizing additively manufactured permanent magnet materials.

Co-authored by Lake Shore scientists and Univ. of Nebraska–Lincoln researchers, the note explains how FORC analysis, combined with Lake Shore 8600 Series VSM measurements, can be used to gain insights into interactions occurring specifically in sintered and 3D printed NdFeB samples — characteristics that depart meaningfully from those of conventionally processed materials.

Also read our app note discussing the use of the 8600 Series VSM for characterizing rare-earth NdFeB and exchange-coupled barium hexaferrite samples.

Interested in discussing how our 8600 Series VSM technology — including its availability as a measurement option for our MagRS system — can be of help in your research? Please contact us.
