Radially Magnetized Magnets

Radially magnetized magnets refer to magnets whose magnetization direction follows the radius of the magnet, meaning the magnetic lines radiate from the center of the magnet outward. This magnetization method is typically used for ring magnets (such as neodymium ring magnets), where the magnetic field is distributed radially from the center to the outer edge of the magnet.

Features and Applications:

Magnetization Direction: The magnetization direction of the magnet is along the radius, from the center outward. For ring magnets, the magnetic field passes through the cross-section of the magnet and is distributed along the radius.

Applications: Radially magnetized magnets are commonly used in motors, generators, sensors, and some specialized devices, especially when a uniform or multipole magnetic field is required within and around the magnet.

Multipole Magnets: This magnetization method is often used in the design of multipole magnets, such as those used in MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) equipment, or as key components in high-efficiency motors and generators.

Difference from Diametrically Magnetized Magnets:

Unlike diametrically magnetized magnets, which are magnetized along the diameter of the magnet, radially magnetized magnets have their magnetization along the radius.Radial magnetization is commonly used in applications where the magnet needs to be configured with multiple poles or to ensure a uniform magnetic field distribution.
