Abstract
A magnet assembly including spacers having chamfered posts insertable in post holes of opposed spaced backirons. For assembly, chamfered posts are inserted into post holes on a first backiron. A second backiron is supported above the first backiron by an assembly slide to retain the second backiron against the magnetic attraction between the first and second backirons for preassembly alignment of the post holes relative to spacer posts. The assembly slide is withdrawn from the second backiron so that the second backiron is attracted toward the first backiron and spacer posts are inserted into post holes on the second backiron. A method for assembling a magnet assembly using an assembly slide to support a second backiron above a first backiron and withdrawing the slide from the second backiron to assemble components.
