Prices for rare-earth metals are keep rising
Prices for rare-earth metals are keep rising Published on Oct. 06, 2017

Prices for Rare-Earth metals and consequently prices for Neodymium magnets are keep rising. Rises in Rare Earths prices (especially PrNd) are expected to continue in the second part of this year due to:

  1. Chinese government’s antipollution regulation and to tighter policies on illegal production. Enforcement of these programs is expected to remain in place in the long run.
  2. Rare earths prices could receive a further boost, in the second half of the year, from Chinese Government stockpiles policy. China, has a...

The Environment Protection Inspection affects Magnet Industry Seriously
The Environment Protection Inspection affects Magnet Industry Seriously Published on Oct. 06, 2017

The Environment Protection Inspection Team set off the nationwide environmental storm. Unlike the previous environment renovation, the emphasis and intensity of Environment Protection Inspection is unprecedented this time. It seems that the government gives zero tolerance to environmental pollution this time. Factories that can not meet environmental protection standard are forced to shut down or punished with heavy fine. No buffers. For magnet industry, the supply of rare earth element is also affected and eventually it cause...

why the neodymium magnet price rise?
why the neodymium magnet price rise? Published on Oct. 06, 2017

Neodymium price increase…. just the tip of the iceberg. Chinese Rare-Earth industry it has been affected by long-existing problems such as illegal mining and smuggling. Outlaw producers don't pay taxes and observe none of the environmental and occupational health standards, that’s why their extracting costs are much lower. Many companies rushed into Rare Earth mining and production business when prices were very high, and start to extract and process much more than what the market really needed, (Rare Earths are not as dif...

GKN Drivelines introduces off-the-shelf torque-vectoring eAxle
GKN Drivelines introduces off-the-shelf torque-vectoring eAxle Published on Oct. 06, 2017

Last week we saw Bosch reveal its "e-axle" off-the-shelf" electric powertain solution for automakers who don't have the means or inclination to develop their own. Now another company is doing something similar. GKN Driveline, a leading supplier of automotive drivelines and technologies, introduced the "eTwinsterX" at the Frankfurt auto show. The eTwinsterX is an integrated electric drive unit designed to serve as primary source of power or as a secondary powertrain system in a hybrid application. GKN provides electric-drive uni...

General Motors Announces an All-Electric Future
General Motors Announces an All-Electric Future Published on Oct. 06, 2017

After more than a century peddling vehicles that pollute the atmosphere, General Motors is ending its relationship with gasoline and diesel. This morning, the American automotive giant announced that it is working toward an all-electric, zero-emissions future. That starts with two new, fully electric models next year—then at least 18 more by 2023. That product onslaught puts the company at the forefront of an increasingly large crowd of automakers proclaiming the age of electricity and promising to move away from gasoline- an...

Alnico Magnet dead or alive?
Alnico Magnet dead or alive? Published on Oct. 06, 2017

Cobalt has a higher melting point (1490°C) and maintains its strength to a high temperature, like iron or nickel, cobalt is ferromagnetic. It can keep its magnetic properties to 1100°C, a higher temperature than any other material. These distinctive properties make this metal perfect for two specialized high-tech purposes: superalloys and battery cathodes. Superalloys: high-performance alloys drive approx.16% of cobalt demand. The metal’s ability to resist intense temperatures and conditions makes it perfect for use in: Tu...

The Massive Impact of EVs on Commodities

HOW DEMAND WOULD CHANGE IN A 100% EV WORLD

The Chart of the Week is a weekly Visual Capitalist feature on Fridays. What would happen if you flipped a switch, and suddenly every new car that came off assembly lines was electric? It’s obviously a thought experiment, since right now EVs have close to just 1% market share worldwide. We’re still years away from EVs even hitting double-digit demand on a global basis, and the entire supply chain is built around t...

All Volvos to have electric motors from 2019
All Volvos to have electric motors from 2019 Published on Sep. 23, 2017

Volvo Cars has announced that, beginning in 2019, every one of its models will have an electric motor, making it the first legacy automaker to phase out ICE-only vehicles. In the future, Volvo will offer only three powertrains: pure electric, plug-in hybrid, and mild hybrid, which uses a battery to store energy from regen, or for stop/start functionality. Volvo also announced that it would launch five pure electric cars between 2019 and 2021 – three under the Volvo brand and two under Polestar, the high-performance subsidiary...
