Abstract
The described embodiments relate generally to methods to form magnetic assemblies. In particular, extreme cold work (aka cold spray) is used to enhance magnetic properties of a steel alloy (most notably 316L stainless steel and others) that can then be formed into useful shapes and embedded within a substrate without undue machining operations.
