MAGNETS | How It's Made

Dude I didnt expect magnet making to be this intense man holy shit.

Oh Crounches Yeah. me neither what the fuck

[@heronumbertwo3171]

Same i thought they melt metal and add some neodymium craps

[@cressexploits7308]

Same I thought they took people to a village in Africa to burn them alive in order to extract the metals from their blood in which they pour into magnet molds. This video seemed to disprove my predictions. How extraordinary!

[@DrumApe]

Never thought that making magnets is so labour intensive and difficult. Really expected the process to be almost fully automated. Thanks for the video!

[@kuolettavaVids]

It probably is for the very common shapes and sizes. This looked to be more custom products.

[@anonops1980]

Metallurgy may be more automated in developed countries, but since the huge majority of it is done in poorest countries, it does end up being more labour intensive.

[@ralanham76]

These are probably from the '80s or '90s 😂

[@gizmoguyar]

This looks like a shop that makes low volume custom shapes. These are also cheap nickel-iron based magnets. They are still used in cheap dc motors and similar products, but high efficiency and industrial products almost all use neodymium-iron-boron magnets, which are much stronger, and made via sintering, to tune their properties more precisely. Those are generally made in massive batches. And the processes are much more automated.

[@josedelgado7479]

I can't believe that when it comes to manufacturing magnets, one of the steps to getting magnets out of their molds is to beat the living crap out of it.

[@ExTess]

For those of you thinking that this process is wasteful and sloppy, let me introduce you to the metal industry, where a lot of processes like this are the norm. Mass-produced designs for items like these are very hard to make safely in any kind of laboratory or workshop, and factories rarely involve some kind of quiet, safe environment. Metalworking in general is very loud, messy, and slightly dangerous. That doesn't mean that a lot of the materials go to waste, though; the sand, concrete, and metal scraps used are usually ground down, cleaned, and recycled for later use again, since its mostly just silicates and metals. The metals are even sometimes chemically sifted back into their base components and reused as well, since they're the same metals that will go into the magnets anyway. This is coming from a guy who worked as a metalworker/welder for a few years, and who has absolutely set himself on fire several times from just being around red-hot metal for too long. It's just the way it is.

[@chriswinkler284]

Informative to say the least. As a kid, I had a set of Brio trains that depended on magnets to link them together. What was interesting however, was the fact that if you did a 180 (Half circle) on any of the train cars, and the polarity was the same, they repelled each other instead of attracting. As a 'youngin', I was mindblown by the concept and would always try to force them to link. Obviously, no such luck :P

If those materials were easy to re-magnetize we wouldn’t be using them for ‘permanent’ magnents. You need to heat it up until it’s red hot and then have it near a strong electromagnetic field (bigger electromagnet or permanent magnet that re-orients the atoms in the hot one)
