Arc and segment magnets for curved magnetic circuits.

A general curved product family covering arc segments, tiles, matched sets, and drawing-defined variants across rare-earth material, coating, magnetization, and assembly options.

Curved neodymium arc and segment magnets for circular magnetic circuits

Product familyArc segments, tiles, curved pieces, and matched magnet sets

Common materialsSintered NdFeB, sintered SmCo, or bonded rare-earth material where suitable

Common custom optionsRadii, angle, length, coating, pole direction, matched sets, marking, and packaging

Typical usesBLDC and PMSM motors, pumps, actuators, generators, and curved assemblies

The curved segment is the product; motor, material, and coating are specifications.

Marketplace catalogs often repeat the same arc shape under motor, grade, coating, or application labels. This page keeps those variants under one curved product family. The released drawing then controls radii, angle, length, material, pole direction, coating state, matched-set relationship, and acceptance.

Curved geometry matched to circular magnetic circuits

Matched-set and orientation-control options

Material routes for output, heat, and environment

Common sourcing situations

  • The supplied part is an individual curved arc, tile, or segment.
  • Inner and outer radius, arc angle, and axial length define the primary geometry.
  • Segment count, polarity sequence, coating state, and orientation can be controlled as set attributes.
  • The application uses a curved magnetic circuit in a motor, pump, actuator, generator, or custom assembly.

Details to confirm before production

  • Radius, chord, angle, length, and coating build all influence assembly fit and air gap.
  • Brittle edges, adhesive gaps, retention, and high-speed handling need explicit requirements.
  • Matched sets need polarity, segment identification, sequence, and packaging control.
  • Magnetic output must be approved in the real rotor, stator, or curved assembly circuit.

Define the curved interface and the matched-set condition together.

A useful arc specification combines inner and outer radius, arc angle or chord, axial length, edge condition, material, coating, pole direction, segment count, assembly gap, retention, packaging, and inspection. Motor and pump uses remain applications of the arc product rather than separate overlapping products.

Common information used to define an arc or segment magnet.

GeometryInner radius, outer radius, arc angle or chord, axial length, edge condition, segment count, and datums.
Material routeNdFeB, SmCo, or bonded rare-earth route selected by output, temperature, environment, geometry, and cost.
MagnetizationThrough thickness, radial, parallel, custom direction, polarity sequence, orientation mark, and delivery state.
Surface and assemblyCoating, adhesive compatibility, air gap, rotor or stator location, sleeve, retention, cleanliness, and handling.
Inspection and packagingRadius, chord, angle, length, coating state, polarity, matched-set control, identification, and oriented packing.

Generic arc and segment product reference.

The fields below reflect common product-listing options. They organize a sourcing conversation but do not promise stock sizes, grades, tolerances, output, matched-set performance, or delivery terms.

This is generic catalog information. Final capability and acceptance are confirmed after drawing, material, magnetic, coating, matched-set, and application review.

Material, coating, magnetization, tolerances, and inspection remain product attributes. Confirm them against the drawing and application instead of creating another duplicate product category.
