Galfenol Magnetostrictive Material with Good Mechanical Properties

Galfenol exhibits a unique combination of mechanical and magnetostrictive (magnetic) properties that legacy smart materials do not. The table shows some of Galfenol’s magnetic and mechanical properties. In addition, the Galfenol Public Release provides a primer on current processing techniques and standard forms, compositions produced by A-ONE ALLOY, and unique shapes that have been fabricated using Galfenol alloys.

It should be noted that research is on-going in developing new processing methods to fabricate Galfenol components. This includes rolling the material into sheet form, wire drawing, and additive manufacturing. A-ONE ALLOY is always on the look-out for possible partners to help advance these next-generation manufacturing methods. Please feel free to contact us for such requirements if you are interested.
