AML foresees scaling manufacturing organically in 2024 through strategic partnerships with customers and material providers. For example, at its current locations in Florida, the company can support an output of approximately 200 metric tonnes per annum of permanent magnets.

The collaboration with ORNL is a gleaming example of the value of PM-Wire. The technology will replace 2,750 complex Halbach-array sintered magnets with eight nonsintered helical magnets and eliminate the need to actively cool the motor rotor with equal motor performance. AML envisions this demonstration as a potential springboard into commercial automotive applications.

However, someone has to pay for this content. And that’s where advertising comes in. Most people consider ads a nuisance, but they do serve a useful function besides allowing media companies to stay afloat. They keep you aware of new products and services relevant to your industry. All ads in Quality Digest apply directly to products and services that most of our readers need. You won’t see automobile or health supplement ads.

AML’s manufacturing capabilities are based on its PM-Wire, a scalable and modular manufacturing process that can produce nonsintered and sintered permanent magnets at a high rate and high yield. The process is adaptable to a variety of applications, including those that benefit from magnets in unique configurations and material compositions, such as electric motors.

Going forward, the company will continue to expand its development programs and explore new material compositions for sintered and nonsintered magnets at its two locations on the Space Coast in Brevard County, Florida. These locations, which encompass approximately 10,000 sq. ft., will continue to support customers with prototyping and research and development for alloys and magnets.

The company’s first step into high-rate commercial manufacturing will be nonsintered permanent magnets for select commercial and defense customers. AML has several development programs underway for enabling electric motor applications, including a collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) for an electric vehicle motor. AML plans to co-locate manufacturing with customers or supply chain partners, with preliminary discussions underway with several U.S. jurisdictions for site locations.
