Automotive

Magnetic materials have vast applications in the automobile industry. The automobile contains magnetic materials in various parts such as motors, sensors, actuators, and switches. The concerns regarding the fuel economy of vehicles lead the manufacturers to reduce vehicle weight and to increase the combustion efficiency. This has resulted in an elevated use of magnetic materials in automobiles. Magnetic materials are increasingly used in electric motors for various functions such as electric steering, electric braking, electric throttle actuation, auto-clutch, and gearbox actuation.

Electronics

A computer, its peripheral devices, and electronics are the traditional application markets for magnetic materials. Magnetic materials are used in magnetic heads of hard disk drives (HDD), CD, as well as in motors of peripheral devices such as printer, fax machines, scanners, and photocopies. The increasing usage of cloud computing and related development resulted in the growing demand for data centers to store enormous data volumes involved. The mounting demand from data centers for HDD pushes the demand for magnetic materials. Consumer electronics such as air conditioner, washing machines, dryers, and lawn motors use magnetic materials to enhance the efficiency of appliances.

Industrial

The increasing automation in various industries leads to the growth of magnetic materials. The magnetic materials are used in various magnetic assemblies such as metal detectors, magnetic material handling equipment, conveyor belts, and separation equipment. These magnetic assemblies are an essential part of various processing industries such as chemical, food, and ceramic. Industrialization is the back bone of the economic development of any economy. Several developing countries such as China, India, and Brazil are focusing on accelerating industrialization for the economic development of their country. This rapid industrialization drives the demand for advanced magnetic materials.
