BONDED MAGNETS: 10 percent DROP IN JAPANESE PRODUCTION

摘要

The Japan Association of Bonded Magnetic Materials (JABM) estimates that Japanese production of bonded magnets fell by 10 percent in terms of volume (to 12,900t) and by 9 percent in terms of value (to Yen 24.700M) in 2008. While output of rare earth magnets remained stable, production of hard ferrites dropped by over 17 percent in terms of both volume and value.
