Our team was recently contacted by Maurice of Objective Imaging Ltd.<\/p>\n<p>Objective Imaging Ltd is a specialist company providing excellence and innovation for automated imaging applications in Microscopy. Maurice and his team had recently designed a new motorised stage for optical microscopes. To keep the parts of the imaging device both stable and easily accessible, which they needed to be, Maurice and his team tried a number of different solutions. After much trial and error he found that 2 magnets on a removable part and two magnets on the fixed device body enabled the device to be easily attached and detached when required.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-163\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/58027-11.jpg\" alt=\"58027-1[1]\" width=\"666\" height=\"352\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Using the opposite polarities of each magnet on both the removable and fixed component meant that when inserted into the device the removable component \u201csnapped\u201d into place.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-164\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/58027-21.jpg\" alt=\"58027-2[1]\" width=\"666\" height=\"355\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We are extremely pleased that our magnets managed to provide a solution for Maurice\u2019s new product and we would like to thank him for sharing his application with us and for sending in some great photos.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-165\" src=\"https:\/\/www.first4magnets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/58027-31.jpg\" alt=\"58027-3[1]\" width=\"667\" height=\"354\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Products<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/shop-by-material-c2\/neodymium-magnets-c3\/6mm-dia-x-1mm-thick-n42-neodymium-magnet-0-35kg-pull-p2678#ps_1-520\">F306 &#8211; 6mm dia x 1mm thick N42 Neodymium Magnet<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Magnets continue to play an extremely important role in new and emerging modern technology.
