I talked to these guys at a conference a couple years ago. That had a lot of different magnets to play with at their booth. I asked if they had any ideas about how these would be used with motors and they didn't give me much of an answer. At the time, they were somewhat limited on the grade of magnets that they could use ... I don't know if that has changed or not.

"ES Search found 2 matches: +polymagnet"... both in this thread. I see that Youtube vid already posted here... can only add the Polymagnets website:
http://www.polymagnet.com/
Thought their magnets for Hall effect sensor applications extra interesting.
They state:
So I'm wondering about the implications re magnetic flux in "conventional" designed motors. Electrons flowing through narrower copper wires where there are just more wires used?
Sign me confused.
(EDIT: Per their site "Correlated Magnetics Research (CMR) invented and is the sole manufacturer of Polymagnets®)

(Other places they say "up to 4 times".)

A friend of my has beauty salon and she offers cat eye nail polish and has strangely magnetised pads/magnets for quiet complex figures.LockH said:

They all come from china for a while, is it something similar? :|
P.S. the black white pattern is just a sticker on top of the rectangular magnet, to distinguish them.

Interesting, and I see my question is already answered.
I had assumed a similar thickness single sided magnet would have similar or greater power up close vs a traditional 2 sided one.
I guess I don't understand the difference(s) of their manufacture process (and use?) vs standard motor magnets, but the idea of concentrated magnetism (single sided) was very interesting.
I was also under the impression they weren't actually printed such as with dmls or extrusion, but perhaps I'm wrong.
edit// thinking more about it, perhaps the similar and/or increased magnetic force with polymagnets are only possible when it's magnet to magnet. I would think having north and south on the same side might be why they aren't as strong in other conditions???
