A tool designed to determine the attractive or repulsive force between magnets, or between a magnet and a ferromagnetic material. It employs mathematical equations and principles of electromagnetism to estimate the magnitude of this interaction. For example, such a device can be used to predict the force required to separate two neodymium magnets of specific dimensions and grade at a defined distance.
The ability to accurately estimate magnetic interaction forces is valuable in a range of engineering and scientific applications. It permits optimized design of magnetic systems, ensures the safe operation of equipment incorporating magnetic components, and facilitates research in areas such as magnetic levitation and materials science. Historically, determining these forces relied on complex experimental setups; however, computational tools provide a more accessible and efficient method for prediction.
