Sourcing focus
Each review starts with the application, then works through material, coating, magnetization, validation, origin, and production requirements.
Export compliant is a sourcing review, not a generic grade
Buyers may search for export compliant magnets, but compliance depends on material content, country of origin, destination, end use, documentation, and customer requirements. Axis Magnetics can help organize the magnet-side inputs for that review while customers remain responsible for classification, screening, licensing, and legal obligations.
Heavy Rare Earth-Free and Dy/Tb-free options
HRE-Free, HREE-Free, heavy rare earth-free, dysprosium-free, terbium-free, and Dy/Tb-free all describe the same sourcing intent: avoiding restricted heavy rare earth content where the application allows. The proposed option still needs to be compared against magnetic output, temperature behavior, coercivity margin, coating, magnetization, and validation requirements.
Export restrictions can change the qualification path
If the current drawing depends on dysprosium or terbium, the review can compare HRE-Free NdFeB, SmCo, bonded NdFeB, ferrite, alternate coatings, or assembly-level changes where the magnetic circuit allows. Factories can often provide comparison data in advance so the program can qualify a lower-risk path before supply pressure rises.
Documentation and factory comparison data
A useful export-restriction review may include material family, grade direction, known Dy/Tb exposure, origin expectations, coating, magnetization, inspection method, and factory comparison data between HRE-containing and HRE-Free options. That gives sourcing, engineering, and compliance teams a cleaner basis for decision-making.
