How to Remove Tough Residual Magnetic Fields?
Ferro materials attain magnetism which could be difficult to remove using general methods of de-magnetization. Removing residual magnetism is not easy as said. It need skilled engineers, right technique and equipment. Over two decades of experience in giving demagnetization services for our customers across India. We know better than any one else to remove tough residual magnetic fields in ferrous materials.
We are equipped to check the residual magnetism. Calibrated Gauss meters are available. Delivering steadfast de-magnetization services.
What is acceptable Residual magnetic Field in any material?
We do analysis of residual magnetic field, establish proper method and implement the procedure as needed. At the end of demagnetization, you can check to ensure residual field is within the allowable limits.
After De-magnetization, residual magnetic field less than +5 Gauss for non critical components and +3 Gauss for aerospace components is acceptable .
De-magnetization - an Overview
For ferrous materials, Magnetic particle testing or magnaflux testing is used for detecting flaws. Ex: Automobile Shafts, Rotors, Blades, Gears, Sprockets, weld joints, plates, and Aircraft components.
Parts are magnetised to find flaws, fatigue cracks during in-service inspection. During magnetic particle testing materials may attain residual magnetism. Also ferrous materials kept for prolonged periods in earth North and south direction may also store the magnetic field. Components subjected to arc welding and high amperage cables passing over the materials sometimes may magnetize materials.
Some materials are easy to magnetize and easy to de-magnetize. Other materials may be difficult to magnetize. These may retain large amount of residual magnetism. Hysterisis curves are used to evlaluate the magnetic properties of ferro magnetic materials.
Reasons for demagnetization
Ferro magnetic materials are subjected to magnetic fields during manufacturing, storing, handling and transporting. Such materials are detrimental for use as they may have un-acceptable residual fields.
Reasons for de-magnetization are below. If answer for any of one or more of the following is ‘Yes’, de-magnetization is required.
- Residual field will affect instruments sensitive to magnetic fields such as aerospace parts
- Parts are to be plated or painted.
- Components are to be subsequently machined
- The part is to be re-magnetized at a lower level than the initial magnetization step
- Component tested will be moving parts
- When parts are to be electric arc welded
De-magnetization Not Required
For any one or more of the following, answer is ‘Yes’ then you need not demagnetize the parts.
- Post cleaning is not a stringent requirement and all inspection materials need not be removed;
- The component if finished and No external field exists
- Parts are of low retentivity, e.g. low carbon plate;
- If the material tested consists of big structural parts, e.g. welds, large castings;
- Component is to be heat treated above curie temperature
- When the part is to be re-magnetized in another direction at the same or higher level than the original magnetization;
If the part will be magnetized on a magnetic chuck
Checking Residual magnetism
Then, how do you know if the demagnetization is properly performed or not. Check residual magnetism using residual magnetic field meter. Calibrated magnetic field testing equipment, Instruments are available for measuring magnetic field strength post completion of demagnetization. Test report is issued specifying residual magnetic strength measured in Gauss or Tesla.
