Radially oriented ring-shaped preliminarily molded pieces of a ring magnet
are stacked in an axial direction to form a ring-shaped molded body, in
which end faces of the ring-shaped preliminarily molded pieces are bonded
together. This ring-shaped molded body is sintered and heat-treated to
produce the ring magnet. Ring magnets which are less susceptible to
deterioration of magnetic properties due to a disturbance of magnetic
orientation near lamination boundary surfaces are produced. The invention
provides a method of manufacturing such ring magnets with high
efficiency.
