Magnetic chuck/plate construction

[Graham HorneParticipant @grahamhorne65034]

Gentlemen, I wish to build a magnetic chuck and because I am not as

computer adept as you lot, do not surf well for info. Can anyone suggest

sources they have seen which detail things like.. coil winding, horizontal

or vertical placement, parallel alignment, materials, voltages, size selection.

Acknowledgement will be given if an article eventuates. Thanks…GH

Hi Graham,

 

Dave Lammas discusses mag.chucks in a series in ME starting 03 Feb 89 ending 02 Jun 89.

 

Also, Michael Jacot in ME 01 Aug 97 discusses a mag.chuck using a ceramic magnet from a bus gear box. At the time, I did wonder if it might be possible to use a ring magnet from a loudspeaker.

 

Regards,

Micro wave ovens also supply 2 magnets similar to speaker magnets- about 2″ + – 1/2″ or so, I’v used both. Ian S C
