VIBRATING SAMPLE MAGNETOMETER
Unlock precision in your research with the NMI Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). As an established VSM instrument, it is engineered for Specified sensitivity (5×10^(−7)emu), repeatability, and intuitive operation. The ergonomic design and streamlined software empower researchers to perform complex VSM measurements and magnetic characterization with ease.
The robust VSM Drive Head is designed for rapid and simple sample replacement, minimizing downtime and maximizing your lab's productivity.

The Working Principle of a Vibrating Sample Magnetometer
A Vibrating Sample Magnetometer operates on the principle of Faraday's Law of Induction. A sample is vibrated (typically in a sinusoidal motion) within a uniform magnetic field. This vibration causes a change in the magnetic flux, which in turn induces a voltage in strategically placed pickup coils. The magnitude of this induced voltage is directly proportional to the magnetic moment of the sample. The NMI-VSM refines this technique with a calibrated oscillation frequency (1-100 Hz) and a broad amplitude range (0.1 mm – 5 mm) to deliver accurate and reproducible VSM test results.
