Frequently Asked Questions

What are complex custom magnet assemblies?

Complex magnetic assemblies achieve specific magnetic functionalities that a standalone magnet can’t. These engineered systems integrate permanent magnets with other components such as supporting structures of metal housings. These custom magnet assemblies increase magnetic strength, protect fragile magnets, and allow for mounting or integration into a plethora of other devices.

A permanent magnet assembly combines one or more permanent magnets with other components. The other components can be magnetic or non-magnetic; together they create a unified system of specific functionality. These assemblies can be used in electric motors, generators, medical devices, loudspeakers, and industrial applications. Common types of permanent magnets used in these assemblies include ferrite, and alnico magnets.

Of course! You can speak to one of our engineers who can work with you to help plan every step of your project. Adams engineers can recommend the best type of magnetic component for your application, explain the pros and cons of different options, and describe how they all work in the final assembly. Our engineers often spot problems you didn’t even know you had and can recommend effective solutions.

If you need it, we can do it. We offer application and design engineering assistance, finite element analysis (FEA) and magnetic circuit analysis, rapid prototyping, material testing and validation, value analysis/value engineering (VAVE), 2D and 3D magnetic modeling, and more.
