Magnifye Makes Powerful 17 Tesla Superconducting Magnets That Take up 2 Million times Less Space and Are Cheaper to Charge
Magnifye, a Cambridge University spin-out, would increase the power density of magnets used to produce energy in electric motors. The magnets, which are 10 times stronger than conventional magnets, are so powerful that a 1 inch sample could potentially support the weight of a seven-ton truck.
* Stronger magnets that are 7-17 tesla instead of just 2-3 tesla for industrial and medical applications
* 2 million times less volume. Instead of the volume of a phone booth they are the size of a hockey puck or less.
* Cheaper to charge using a new process. A thermal engines sends magnetizing waves that build up the magnetic charge
* Magnifye is developing the technology to produce the strongest permanent magnets in the world.
* Research paper links are at the bottom of this article
Magnifye has developed a heat engine which converts thermal energy into currents of millions of amps. The thermal energy is used to create a series of magnetic waves which progressively magnetise the superconductor much in the same way a nail can be magnetised by stroking it over a magnet.
