Floating Magnets
Product Code : SCL-PLE-11640
The StemAids Floating Magnets apparatus is a specialized laboratory demonstrator engineered for the empirical study of magnetic repulsion, field orientation, and static equilibrium. Optimized for Primary and Secondary STEM curricula, this unit facilitates the quantification of magnetic forces (Fm) acting against gravitational acceleration (g). Manufactured to ISO 9001:2015 standards, it provides a low-friction platform for verifying the Inverse Square Law and the principles of non-contact force transduction.

Key Pedagogical Outcomes (Bloom’s Taxonomy Alignment)
- vertical guide rod interface: facilitates student visualization of axial alignment and the constraint of motion to a single degree of freedom, supporting Physics Module 101.
- ring magnet polarity mapping: enables the physical study of "like-pole" repulsion, allowing learners to apply magnetic field theory to achieve stable levitation.
- force equilibrium analysis: supports the analysis of the balance between magnetic upward thrust and the downward weight of the suspended mass.
- inverse square law observation: allows students to evaluate how the gap distance between magnets changes as additional mass (more magnets) is added to the system.
International Logistics & Compliance
StemAids ensures comprehensive OEM readiness for global institutional procurement:
- packaging: export-grade seaworthy crating (ISPM-15 compliant) with internal spacers to prevent high-impact magnetic snapping during transit.
- documentation: includes Manufacturer’s Authorization Form (MAF), Certificate of Conformance (CoC), and English Technical User Guides.
- durability: tropicalized design featuring moisture-resistant coatings on the support rod to ensure smooth, friction-free movement in all climates.
Direct OEM Sourcing Advantages
Procuring the StemAids Floating Magnets directly ensures vertical manufacturing control:
- in-house precision calibration: magnets are batch-tested for uniform flux density to ensure consistent floating heights across all sets.
- batch-tested for uniform reliability: every unit undergoes a fitment check to ensure the internal diameter of the rings matches the guide rod with minimal play.
- direct factory spares availability: guaranteed availability of individual replacement ring magnets and vertical support rods to maximize long-term laboratory ROI.
- manufacturing control: direct oversight of magnetic material sourcing ensures high coercivity and resistance to demagnetization over long-term use.
