SmCo Magnets in Ion Propulsion System
Request a Quote
Ion propulsion systems are essential for maneuvering spacecraft, particularly in the vacuum of outer space. They generate thrust by ionizing inert gases like xenon. SmCo magnets are the preferred choice for ion propulsion systems due to their high-performance characteristics in extreme space conditions.
SmCo magnets create a magnetic field within the chamber of the ion thruster, effectively repelling negative electrons away from the chamber walls. This facilitates the ionization of the inert gases.
SmCo magnets used in ion propulsion systems are typically small and come in square or block shapes.
