Residual magnetism as a disruptive factor
Residual magnetism is a quality-critical factor affecting industries worldwide. It occurs throughout various manufacturing processes and, without targeted measures, remains critical for the quality, function, and lifespan of industrial products.
For leading manufacturing nations competing in global markets – where precision manufacturing, supply chain reliability, and adherence to international quality standards are paramount – effective management of residual magnetism is essential. With increasing automation, Industry 4.0 initiatives, and demanding customer specifications, reproducible demagnetization becomes a key differentiator for competitive advantage.

What does this mean for your production?
Quality & Cleanliness
- Adhering chips, dirt, and dust increase cleaning effort and scrap rates
- Particle inclusions in electroplating, coating, and painting processes
- Failure to meet your customers' technical cleanliness standards
Manufacturing processes
- Deflection of the arc leads to impaired weldability
- Interference with precision measurements due to magnetically influenced sensor and actuator signals
- Pseudo rejects in magnetic non-destructive testing methods
Component service life
- Accelerated wear in bearings and gearboxes
- Loss of reliability in magnetized components
- Increased complaint rates and warranty costs
-
Costs and risks for your company
Residual magnetism is not an abstract technical problem – it causes measurable economic losses:
Direct costs
- Increased scrap rates due to magnetically induced quality problems
- Additional rework: extra cleaning cycles and time spent on manual intervention
- Unplanned downtime for troubleshooting, cleaning, or readjustments
- Increased tool wear due to adhering particles and resulting reduction in service life
Indirect risks
- Delivery delays and jeopardized just-in-time deliveries
- Damage to reputation due to complaints and loss of customers
- Jeopardization of certifications (e.g., IATF 16949, ISO 9001) in the event of non-compliance with quality requirements
- Competitive disadvantages due to higher production costs at the same market prices
Thorough and reproducible demagnetization is therefore not an option, but an economic necessity. Modern demagnetization technology not only pays for itself, but can also become a decisive competitive advantage in a global market that tolerates no compromises in quality and delivery reliability.
