Uses for our rare earth block magnets:
Magnets like these neodymium blocks were installed in film projectors to regulate or modify the movement of metallic parts and produce smooth, continuous images. The speed at which individual frames containing the filmic images passes over the projector’s light beam is vital. Moving images moving too fast or too slow disorients the viewer, distorting the cinematic images and the sense of reality they are trying to project. In times gone by magnets like these enhanced the cinematic viewing experience by helping to provide clear, continuous footage during projection. They were largely responsible for the quality images and production values we came to appreciate in the pre-digital age.
Rare earth block magnets express instinctive or intuitive magnetic power and influence metallic components to move, but only at the pull force determined by the magnet’s inherent strength which is usually a function of its size.
We originally had this magnet manufactured for the Film & Cinema industry. It is used in part of the componentry that makes up a film projector used in the older style cinemas of the past. These particular movie projectors are still used to this day and we believe there are several hundred in operation worldwide. We presently have about seven hundred pieces in stock and will not be replacing this size once all stock has been sold.
