25 years of commercial PFMs at Hirst Magnetic Instruments
The first commercially available Pulsed Field Magnetometer (PFM) from Hirst was announced in 1998 (with the first machine shipped in 1999) but research work had been started 10 years earlier as it was clear modern high coercivity magnets could not always be measured on the traditional permeameters due to pole piece saturation and faster testsContinue reading “25 years of commercial PFMs at Hirst Magnetic Instruments”
