Abstract
In a magnetization device, while an annular magnetic body including plural rows of annular un-magnetized magnetic encoder tracks which are arranged adjacent to each other and integrated therewith is rotated, magnetization is performed, thereby providing a magnetic encoder. The magnetization device includes: a magnetizing yoke including a pair of opposed end portions opposed to each other across a magnetic gap; an exciting coil wound on the magnetizing yoke; a magnetization power source supplying a magnetizing current to the exciting coil to pass magnetic flux between the opposed end portions; and a magnetic shield which is provided to the magnetizing yoke and shields flow of the magnetic flux to the rows of magnetic encoder tracks other than a magnetization target.
