Magnets are applied to various products including home electronics, automobiles, and infrastructure and industrial equipment, and are indispensable for modern life.
We have continued to develop magnet materials for nearly a half century, from the development of ferrite magnet FB1A material in 1959 to the development of cutting-edge Neodymium magnets and the world's first La-Co high-performance ferrite magnet, making a significant contribution to the progress of modern industry.
In addition, we are also working on the development of high-performance magnets without rare elements, though performance of magnets has been enhanced by these elements such as Dy (dysprosium), La (lanthanum), and Co (cobalt) so far.
