Thank you for the information gentlemen.
However, these solutions are possible only at a later stage.
As I said, we manufacture the bright bars(Raw material) for these applications. The customer then cuts and machines the bar to make a plunger.
This is a relatively new product range for us...
Sorry I was talking about Residual Induction(Remanence) not Saturation Induction, my bad.
The Saturation Induction is usually close to 1.5T.
If the Remanence is high it causes "sticking" of the plunger which is why we need it to be below 0.9T while the required Permeability should be around...
Thanks MagBen.
The application is to make plungers for solenoid valves. However we only produce soft magnetic bars and it is machined by the user. The user needs the bars to have high permeability and low coercivity and the Br needs to maintained at 0.9T max. To give you an example, please see...
What is the ideal coercive force for fully magnetically annealed bars between diameters 6.35mm to 17mm for type 2 Alloy?
Also, is there a way to reduce the saturation induction of the bars through some changes in annealing? My values are always in the range of 0.9 to 1.1 Tesla
