Custom Magnets

Since magnets are used in such a wide range of applications, many of which are in highly specialized fields, industrial, medical and electronics manufacturers often require custom designed magnets or magnet assemblies. Custom made magnets and magnetic assemblies range from customized ceramic magnets sintered into specialized shapes to entire magnetic separator systems for bulk processing. Alnico magnets, neodymium magnets, ceramic magnets and other types of rare earth magnets can be custom manufactured to specific porosities, magnetic strengths, shapes, densities and properties of magnetic permanence. Custom magnetic assemblies are fabricated for specialized holding, lifting and metal separation tasks, and single custom permanent magnets are used in technical applications in computers, electronics, medical devices and sound amplification. Magnet manufacturers often offer customized dimensions, especially for ceramic magnets. Ceramic magnets are commonly used in automotive and industrial settings, and the powdered part sintering process they undergo during fabrication makes customizing shapes and dimensions fairly easy.

Many businesses and professionals use custom magnetic business cards, promotional refrigerator magnets and car magnets die cut from printed sheet magnets. While the actual polymer-magnetic sheet magnet material is usually made in a magnet or polymer manufacturing plant, many business-to-consumer companies specialize in custom printing and die cutting sheet magnets into a variety of business and promotional products. Sheet magnets of varying magnetic strengths can be used as temporary business signs, automobile signs and a wide range of promotional materials. Regardless of the specific application requirements, magnet manufacturers around North America are capable of producing customized magnets and magnetic assemblies to fit virtually every application.
