A method for continuous manufacture of permanent magnets. A material sheet is formed into an open tube, having a lengthwise opening. Magnetic powder may be poured into the lengthwise opening on a continuous basis. The tube opening is then formed closed and sealed. The magnetic powder is magnetically pre-aligned by subjecting it to a first magnetic field. The tube containing the powder may be compressed into a desired shape, forming an elongated permanent magnet. After compression, the elongated magnet is magnetized by a second magnetic field in two-step process, wherein the elongated permanent magnet is subjected to a magnetic field from first magnetizing coil that is pulsed with a first electric current in a first direction, followed by a second magnetizing coil being pulsed with a second magnetizing electric current in a second direction. The elongated magnet may be formed into any arbitrary shape, such as a ring or coil.

Disclosed are functional materials for use in additive manufacturing (AM). The functional material can comprise an elastomeric composition (e.g., a silicone composite) for use in, for example, direct ink writing. The elastomeric composition can include and elastomeric resin, and a magnetic nanorod filler dispersed within the elastomeric resin. Nanorod characteristics (e.g., length, diameter, aspect ratio) can be selected to create 3D-printed constructs with desired mechanical properties along different axes. Furthermore, since nickel nanorods are ferromagnetic, the spatial distribution and orientation of nanorods within the continuous phase can be controlled with an external magnetic field. This level of control over the nanostructure of the material system offers another degree of freedom in the design of functional parts and components with anisotropic properties. Magnetic fields can be used to remotely sense compression of the constructs, or alternatively, control the stiffness of these materials.
