What aspects need to be communicated when purchasing?
- How to prepare an inquiry for magnets?
- What details must be clarified in order to obtain an accurate quotation and delivery date?
If you have such doubts when purchasing magnet materials, I hope this article can help you.
When we want to clarify the procurement requirements of magnets, there are several key points to be clarified, including performance requirements, shape and size, magnetization direction, surface treatment requirements, required quantity, project delivery, transportation method, special packaging requirements, which can be divided into There are two topics, one is the technical parameters of the parts. Another aspect concerns project management and the buying habits of different customers.
Parts drawings with all technical parameters of the magnets include:
1. Performance requirements:
The customer gives the grade, and it is recommended that both the supplier and the buyer indicate the remanence Br and the intrinsic coercive force Hcj, so that deviations are not easy to occur.
If the customer does not know the grade, it is necessary to provide some auxiliary judgment indicators, such as surface magnetism, pulling force, magnetic flux/magnetic moment, etc.
In addition, for projects with high technical requirements, testing equipment, testing methods and judgment standards should be agreed upon as the standards for judging shipments and incoming materials.
2. Shape size and magnetization direction:
The basic shape and size requirements of the magnet must be indicated, such as 6.0mm (+0.03/-0.03), and for standard geometric shapes, the dimensions and tolerances of length, width, and height should be
provided. In addition, if you need us to mark the direction of the product (N-S pole), please let us know clearly.
3. Surface treatment requirements
The customer needs to specify the surface treatment including the plating method (electroplating, electroless plating, electrophoresis, vapor deposition, etc.), the type of plating material (zinc, nickel, copper,
aluminum, epoxy resin, etc.) and the thickness of the plating layer.
4. Product delivery time
For standard sizes and shapes, we will have stock material blanks, so delivery is fast.
For some special customized orders, in order to achieve the best cost ratio, the product generally needs to be molded, so the delivery time of the product will be extended.
The overall construction period can be shortened in a reasonable way, but for projects with urgent delivery dates, orders must be planned in advance.
5. Other requirements such as: delivery plan, appearance requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.
Our professional sales will walk you through the purchasing process or new projects development. Please do not hesitate to contact us for more information.
