I think I get it now. The reason one would use such a complicated electromagnet to magnetize the ferrite rather than mold or mill the part to shape and use a simpler electromagnet to get the same magnetic field is that milling is crazy slow and resource-intensive, and sintering just doesn't allow such mold shapes.

Yep, it's called cogging. Every one of the "teeth" made visible by the powdered iron in the magnetic film has a north and a south pole on either side. Without this special magnetization pattern the thing would never work.

I had no clue those noises were made by something so pretty...

And rhenium.

Wast ist das? eine HARDDISK scheibe?

Cool see whats in the magnet

magzzie, it will only show magnetically affected thigs, so most likely, the three common metals that are affected by magnets. i cant remember all 3, just iron.

nope to see what people are wearing
I'd imagine this is a servo magnet from a 5.25" floppy disk drive, looking at the pattern.
