With a focus on quality and a commitment to customer satisfaction, Magnet Applications continues to invest in new equipment to ensure we can produce superior products from the design concept to the finished product – all under one roof. The Center of Excellence. But it’s not the equipment that ensures your magnet or magnetic assembly is on-time, on-budget and built to your specifications. It’s the people. Let a skilled workforce press or injection mold your custom magnet, hand-build your magnetic assembly – as complex as it may be and in any quantity – with precision and accuracy, test for quality and ship quickly. QUALITY & PERFORMANCE · Award winning supplier for assemblies · ISO 9001:2008 certified and ITAR registered production facility · In-house coating facilities · 5S Programs focused on operating efficiencies · Well-equipped test lab to design, ensure performance and test tolerances · Glove box clean air assembly and end-of-line pass/fail tests for medical applications · Test all incoming raw materials before entering manufacturing process MAGNET & MAGNETIC ASSEMBLY PRODUCTION · Made in the USA for quick-ship to our North American customers · In-house magnetizing for virtual any magnet size and shape · Simple magnets and assemblies to highly complex components · Numerous production routes available: sintering, extrusion, calendaring, compression bonding and injection molding. · CNC Machining · Lean manufacturing replenishment program compliance (JIT, Kanban, Dock-to-stock and more) Why go off-shore when Magnet Applications can design the magnet, source the magnetic material, integrate it into an assembly, coat it, glue it, magnetize it, package it, ship it, all on time and within budget? 13
Magnet & Material Magnificence.
