Custom Magnetic Assemblies for Industrial Applications
Custom magnetic assemblies engineered to meet the exact requirements of your application. Storch designs and manufactures assemblies that deliver consistent performance, long-term durability, and reliable integration into your equipment or process.
Whether you need a simple magnetic component or a fully engineered assembly, each solution is built around your specifications, material, and operating conditions.
What We Engineer
We design a wide range of custom magnetic assemblies, including:
- Encapsulated magnet assemblies
- Magnetic housings and mounting assemblies
- Rare earth and ceramic magnet assemblies
- Magnetic bars, plates, and structural components
- Welded and machined magnetic subassemblies
- High-strength holding and positioning assemblies
Every assembly is built to match your required strength, geometry, and mounting configuration.
Engineered for Your Application
No two applications are the same. We design assemblies based on how they will actually be used in the field.
Key considerations include:
- Required holding force or magnetic field strength
- Material thickness, air gap, and contact conditions
- Temperature, environment, and exposure conditions
- Mounting method and structural requirements
- Wear resistance and service life expectations
Our team works directly with you to ensure the assembly performs as intended in real-world conditions.
Materials & Magnet Types
We select magnet materials based on performance requirements, cost, and operating environment.
Common options include:
- Neodymium (NdFeB) for high-strength, compact designs
- Ceramic (ferrite) for cost-effective, stable performance
- Alnico for high-temperature applications
- Samarium Cobalt (SmCo) for high temperature and corrosion resistance
- Hybrid assemblies combining multiple materials
Assemblies can be fully enclosed, plated, or sealed depending on your application.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a custom magnetic assembly?
A custom magnetic assembly is a magnet or group of magnets integrated into a housing or structure designed to meet specific performance, mounting, and application requirements.
What information do you need to quote a custom assembly?
Typical inputs include part drawings or sketches, required holding force, material type and thickness, air gap, operating environment, and any mounting or size constraints.
How is magnetic holding force determined?
Holding force depends on magnet material, size, contact surface, air gap, and the properties of the material being engaged. We evaluate these factors to match the assembly to your application.
What magnet materials are available?
Common materials include neodymium (NdFeB), ceramic (ferrite), samarium cobalt (SmCo), and alnico. The best option depends on strength requirements, temperature, and environment.
Can you support prototyping and production?
Yes. We support concept development, prototype builds, testing, and full production runs depending on your project requirements.
What industries do you typically work with?
We support a wide range of industries including manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, fasteners, packaging, and OEM equipment builders.
Can you help if I’m not sure what I need?
Yes. If you can describe your application, we can help define the requirements and recommend a magnetic assembly that will perform as intended.
