MAGNETIZED GEARS

MAGNETIZED GEARS | R&D of Parts Magnetization in Productive Cycle
Project Number| POCI-01-0247-FEDER-42833 | Portugal Central and North

The objective of this project is to shift the magnetization of plastic injected parts paradigm, through the research and development of an alternative and innovative process that allows to magnetize parts within the production cycle, unlike the current processes that magnetize parts outside the injection mold. In order to ensure the objective of this project, it is critical the development of new technical and scientific skills as an approach to the conceptualization and development of injection molds and magnetization specific equipment. Equally important is the development of new plastic raw materials and new requirements for steel selection used in mold manufacture.
