Abstract
Manufacturing techniques for producing thin magnetic elements are designed to accommodate the mechanical properties of sintered magnetic substrates. One of the manufacturing processes involves cutting a magnetizable substrate into a number of slices and adhesively coupling the slices to a sheet that can take the form of a layer of grinding tape. After concurrently grinding a first surface of each of the slices, the slices are flipped over so that the first surface of each slice is attached to another layer of grinding tape. A second surface of each of the slices is then ground until a desired thickness is achieved. Subsequent to the grinding, dicing operations can be applied to the slices to produce magnets having a desired length and width.
