Industries
Permanent magnets behave differently when they are placed in a sensor, a lifting aid, a separator, a medical device or an aerospace assembly. Eclipse Magnetics helps buyers connect the application environment to a defensible material decision.
Application Map
Holding, indexing, sensing and end-of-arm tooling applications depend on stable pull force, clean mounting surfaces and predictable magnetization direction. Eclipse Magnetics reviews the air gap and duty cycle so production fixtures keep their repeatability.
Aircraft-adjacent builds require traceable material records, controlled coatings and conservative temperature assumptions. Magnetic assemblies for switches, indicators and retainers are reviewed against documentation requirements before supply.
Compact medical equipment often needs small rare earth magnets with tight dimensions, corrosion-resistant surfaces and validated retention. Our team helps specify the coating and inspection evidence needed for controlled device production.
Outdoor meters, switching devices and monitoring hardware can expose magnets to heat, vibration and moisture. Material choice and coating logic are matched against the environment instead of relying on generic catalog grades.
Technical Requirements
| Industry | Material focus | Validation concern | Common evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Automation | NdFeB or ferrite depending on space and cost | Pull force consistency over repeat cycles | Fixture test data, pole orientation, dimensional check |
| Aerospace | SmCo or controlled NdFeB assemblies | Temperature margin and traceability | Lot records, coating inspection, AS9100 aligned documentation |
| Medical Devices | Miniature rare earth magnets and coated assemblies | Clean surfaces and stable retention | Coating review, dimensional inspection, sample report |
| Energy Metering | Ferrite, NdFeB or bonded materials | Moisture, thermal cycling and long service life | Environmental notes, coating rationale, magnetization record |
Application CTA
Tell Eclipse Magnetics where the magnet works, what it touches and what failure would cost. We will frame the material and validation plan around that context.
