A method of manufacturing a speed ring in a continuous process using a magnetizing
fixture and a trimming fixture. An unmagnetized magnetic strip is fed into the
trolley of a magnetizing fixture, clamped stretched, and magnetized by a coil.
The newly magnetized strip is then cut and fed into a trimming fixture. As the
magnetized strip goes through the trimming fixture, it runs over a hall effect
sensor which determines where a center of a pair of poles is located. Based on
where a pair of poles is located the cutting blade of the trimming fixture is activated
and a magnetic strip that can be turned into a speed ring is created.
