अवस्था

ARCI has complete in-house facility for metal to magnet except for strip casting facility which shall be established by 2026

 

  •  Uniqueness of the technology:
  • Pioneering technology: A New pressless Process Technology (NPLP) different from conventional technology making us a pioneer in establishing the first pilot scale globally
  • Near net shaped magnets: The technology has the unique capability to produce near net shaped magnets which can be directly used in applications with very minimal machining offering the scope of reducing wastage of precious rare earth metal sources
  • High Coercive magnets: The technology also offers the scope of handling very fine grain powders less than 4 µm sized powders compared to 5 – 10 micron powders in conventional technologies capable to produce high coercive magnets favourable for EV applications.
  • High quality magnets: The technology also ensures production of high-quality magnets with oxygen content restricted less than 1000 ppm in sintered magnets compared to commercial magnets with typical oxygen content of 3000 – 6000 ppm.
  • Toward Dy free rare earth free magnets:  The magnets manufactured using this technique are more suitable for adopting Grain Boundary Diffusion Process (GBDP) a commercially viable technology to enhance coercivity with minimal usage of Dy (HRE)
