PERPETUAL MOTION - FACT OR FICTION?
The headline read this week, “MINI TO INTRODUCE “PERPETUAL MOTION (PM)” MAGNETIC PROPULSION SYSTEM”. Unfortunately the press release was part of an April Fools joke and therefore no truth in the statement.
For years now, people from all walks of life have been attempting to put into practice the now famous quote from Nikola Tesla: “One day man will connect his apparatus to the very wheelwork of the universe [...] and the very forces that motivate the planets in their orbits and cause them to rotate will rotate his own machinery.”
PM by way of magnetic technology is still very much evolving, with some success. AMF Magnetics continues to support privateers in their quest to develop a commercially viable answer to PM. Perhaps MINI are close enough to joke about it?

PATCH MAGNETS
It is usually this time of the year that calenders are beginning to be printed for the new year ahead. As is often the case with printed promotional material, the receiver will usually take a quick glance and toss it in the rubbish with the rest of the junk mail.
Give your calenders, menu's and other printed promotional material the edge with a patch magnet!
Patch magnets are self-adhesive, flexible magnetic tabs that come on a sheet, pre-cut to 20x40mm size ready to be adhered to your printed material.
AMF Magnetics offers 20x20x0.8mm Patch magnets sutiable for business cards and the like. The larger 20x40mm patch magnet comes in either 0.6mm thick for DL size or similar material that is under 250 gsm or the 0.8mm for thicker printed material.
Order your patch magnets in time before the new year.

MAGNETIC SWEEPERS
When you think about it, there really isn't any other way of cleaning up large areas such as trucking yards, car parks etc. of nails, screws or other sharp metal items than by using a magnetic sweeper.
AMF Magnetics now stock 3 different magnetic sweepers for our customers to choose from. The 18" unit is perfectly suited to small work areas where space is an issue. The 30" unit is an excellent way to quickly and easily clean up large areas such as car parks or trucking yards. The ultimate is the 48" Hanging Sweeper which easily attaches by way of chains to the rear of any type of motorised vehicle to clean up very large areas.
We also manufacture custom made units which are specifically designed as an attachment to forklifts or similar vehicles for cleaning road surfaces and the like. Enquire with AMF Magnetics about your magnetic sweeper requirement.

RARE EARTH NEODYMIUM POT MAGNETS
In 2007, AMF Magnetics introduced a complete range of Rare Earth Neodymium pot magnets that have made our strongest magnets even more versatile for our customers.
Pot magnets are regular rare earth magnets that are encased in a steel cup and come with various fixture points that make these magnets perfect for all types of holding applications. For instance, our pot magnets are available with either a countersunk hole, male or female threads or a hook and can hold from around 5kgs right up to an amazing 160kgs. Remarkably, one of the larger pot magnets can hold over 300 times its own weight!
Our customers have been finding new uses for our pot magnets all the time. One customer is currently investigating the use of our pot magnets in a point-of-sale application while another in the construction industry is using them to hold light weight roof panels onto steel battens.
For further information about our full range of Rare Earth Neodymium Pot magnets, please refer to our Product Catalogue section.
