BROOKHAVEN SCIENCE ASSOCIATES Magnet Production Workshop – April 11-12, 2012 7 Magnet Yoke Fabrication MATERIAL Ideally all magnets from the same family are manufactured from a single batch of steel (same heat) Shuffling systematically distributes the steel properties among all the yoke segments and ensures that all the magnets in a single family have reproducible and uniform magnetic properties Sorting ensures that variations in the sheet thickness (caused by crowning during the rolling process) are systematically distributed – If the laminations are symmetrical they can be flipped during the stacking process
