Abstract

An automated setup for measuring the normal magnetization curve, the major and minor magnetic-hysteresis loops, and the main (initial permeability, maximum permeability, residual magnetic induction, induction coercive force, and saturation induction) and additional (the permeability at a field equal to the coercive force, the field strength at which the saturation induction is reached, and the induction at fields equal to the coercive force and the double coercive force) magnetic parameters of soft magnetic materials and articles produced from them is described. Measurements are performed in an open or closed magnetic circuit at a magnetization-reversal frequency of 0.05–0.5 Hz. The block diagram of the setup and its main parameters and characteristics are presented. The operation of the setup and the possibilities of its application are considered.
