Magnetec Company Profile
In 1984 MAGNETEC GmbH was established at the headquarter in Langen-selbold, approximately 30km away from Frankfurt/Main, Germany. The company holds a worldwide leading position in the development and production of high grade tape wound ring cores made of softmagnetic alloys MAGNEPERM® and NANOPERM®. The main application areas are mains-independent (mechanical) earth leakage circuit breakers (ELCB) and the full range of power electronics/EMI.
With extensive investments in production sites in Hungary and India in the recent years, Magnetec has built up a capacity of approximately 18 million toroidal tape wound cores or assemblies (such as current transformers and chokes) per year.
MAGNETEC supplies one third of the world markets demand of magnetic cores for passive ELCBs. In addition, many customers buy high performance inductive components for EMI filters or similar applications within the power electronic industry. The related spectrum of applications ranges from industrial power supplies and variable speed drives to windmill installations.
Following the actual trend, more and more products are made from the advanced nanocrystalline NANOPERM® material. Conventional Permalloy (Fe-Ni) is continuously decreasing – driven by the hyping raw material cost of the recent years.
