Tooling and machining
Pressed geometries require a tool; machined samples do not. Both routes are quoted per project, and a geometry change does not start a new sourcing round.

Custom Magnetic Cores & Components
Send a drawing or an operating point. We assess manufacturability, propose a material and geometry, then machine CNC core samples.
Deliverables by stage
A part you can put on a board, with the measured numbers and the conditions they were measured at.
- Feasibility answer with the constraint named — what the press, the machining or the coating allows.
- Samples with a test report: core-level parameters for a bare core, device parameters for a wound part.
- A quoted route to pilot and volume, including tooling lead time and first-article inspection.
From drawing to volume
-
01
Drawing or operating point
Send the mechanical envelope, or the electrical target: inductance, current, ripple, frequency and ambient temperature.
-
02
Feasibility and material
We state what is manufacturable, which material family fits, and where the trade-off sits.
-
03
CNC core samples
Machined core samples are produced from the drawing; the sample schedule is confirmed with the quotation. Press-tooled parts need a tool and a longer lead time.
-
04
Test and report
Samples ship with measured parameters and the conditions behind them, so your simulation and the bench agree.
-
05
Pilot then volume
Tooling, control plan and first-article inspection are agreed before volume release.
Sampling capabilities
Material comparison
FeNi powder, MnZn and NiZn ferrite measured on the same bench against your operating point.
Coating and finishing
Coating options are quoted with the part, together with the insulation requirement they are expected to meet.
What we need before quoting
A drawing (2D or 3D) is ideal. If you only have targets, send the operating point and the board envelope — we will propose a geometry. Please also state the annual quantity and the qualification standard you must meet, so the route and the inspection plan match it.
