How Magnetic Shielding Alloys Works?
December 6, 2022 ⚊ 1 Min read ⚊ Views 81 ⚊ BUSINESSMagnetic shielding is critical when nearby devices could potentially be susceptible to magnetic interference, such as cardiac pacemakers, or other sensitive pieces of electronic or medical equipment. It’s also used when low-frequency external magnetic fields are in close proximity and have to be shielded from the magnetic or fringe field from the MRI magnet.
These alloys are also used in research labs that rely on ion microscopes and hospitals where EKG machines and other equipment must be shielded and protected from outside interference. The tests that these machines produce must be accurate, and any interference could produce anomalies in the results.
Magnetic shielding usually involves using steel or copper placed in the walls of the magnet room to capture the magnetic field. That shield them redirects the magnetic field so that it protects the item in question.
