e-VAC Magnetics, part of Vacuumschmelze, has been awarded a $111.9 million Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Tax Credit to advance the construction of its first USA magnet manufacturing facility in Sumter, South Carolina. The facility was […]
Holding big new orders from automakers for permanent magnets and planning to build a globally integrated enterprise for magnet and motor component manufacturing, Korean steelmaker Posco International announced on March 18 that it has successfully […]
Featuring powerful new motors of a permanent magnet synchronous design, Swedish automaker Polestar is rapidly expanding its production of electric vehicle models with high power output and speedy performance. Begun as an auto racing engineering enterprise, the company’s approach is to focus on exceptional design for high performance while conducting manufacturing through the facilities of others and focusing on overall sustainability — including use of recycled magnets. […]
ZF has developed an electric motor which does not require magnets. In contrast to the magnet-free concepts of so-called separately excited synchronous motors (SESM) already available today, ZF’s I2SM (In-Rotor Inductive-Excited Synchronous Motor) transmits the energy for the magnetic field via an inductive exciter inside the rotor shaft. This makes the motor uniquely compact with maximum power and torque density. […]
Among its ambitions for furthering e-mobility technology on multiple platforms, top-tier automotive supplier Valeo Group is planning to develop in collaboration with Renault a powerful rare earth-free motor for electric automobiles by 2027, while also achieving impressive success with its new 48V technology for e-bikes. […]
BMW is introducing its most powerful all-electric models yet, employing a new propulsion system design that does without rare-earth magnets in the rotor and doubles the number of excitation windings in the stator. Producing the […]
USA Rare Earth plans to start up neodymium magnet production next year at its plant in Stillwater, Oklahoma and to be supplying it with rare earth feedstock mined at its own Round Rock property in Texas in late 2025 or early 2026, reports CEO Tom Schneberger to Magnetics Magazine. […]
Arnold Magnetic Technologies, a global manufacturer of high-performance magnets and more for mission critical applications, has announced its partnership with Cyclic Materials, a pioneer in developing more sustainable domestic supply chains for rare earth elements. […]
Creating a Circular Supply Chain for Rare Earth Elements and Critical Materials
Cyclic Materials, a Canadian advanced metals recycling company focused on producing critical materials, today announced it has raised $27 million in an oversubscribed Series A financing. The money is flowing in quickly after accomplishing its first production run of rare earth magnetic material and forging a string of partnerships with magnetics industry notables. These include chemicals giant Solvay which is planning to build a major rare earths magnet operation in Europe, and Arnold Magnetic Technologies (see related article), among others. […]
At new laboratories in the United Arab Emirates and in Brazil, global specialty chemicals company Clariant aims to develop improved solutions for processing decarbonization minerals and mines tailings. Rare earths for magnets and magnetic separations are important aspects of the new competence centers. Among the company’s core chemical products are catalysts and adsorbents used in fuel cells and hydrogen production. […]
