New Smart Magnets Discovered That Could Be Huge

Technology is getting more advanced in almost every aspect you can think of, and now it looks as though magnets are getting an upgrade too. A company named Correlated Magnetics who’s headquarters are based in Silicon Valley, California, has produced the world’s first smart magnets, in the name of Polymagnets. What makes these magnets so great is that they have been created using advanced printing technology and have custom magnetic fields.

Polymagnets are different from your standard magnet, because unlike those you played with as child that have a simple North on one side and South on the other, these magnets have customizable patterns that can be designed and created in minutes. These magnets also have the ability to adjust the strength of the pull of the magnet and can print on a range of different flexible materials as well as standard, solid ones.

It’s still early days for the development of these new, advanced magnets, so the possibilities are still being explored as to just how useful they really are.  However, one application that is already using them is in frictionless gears that attract, repel, or stay together without physically touching one another. They can also be used in a number of other consumer and industrial applications including in cabinet latches, positioning devices, consumer electronics, power tool attachments, storm shutter attachments, and much , much more.  The team at Correlated Magnetics are always happy to hear any further suggestions for applications, so if you have something burning that you want to share, check them out now and see what they can do for you.
