Who We Are

SM Magnetics is committed to advanced thinking in magnetic design and solutions with a core focus in permanent magnets and magnetic assemblies. Our ability to apply our magnetics expertise and resources allows us to quickly understand an application and its requirements beyond a typical magnetics company.

SM Magnetics began in 2014 out of the expansion and growth of the custom magnet and magnetic assembly business of SuperMagnetMan which has been a well-known online magnet resource and retailer for nearly 25 years. With our online retail business SuperMagnetMan, we are able to quickly provide prototyping magnets and magnetic assemblies for testing. 

Our goal is and has always been to work with every customer and supplier as a partner. It is important to treat everyone along the entire supply chain with respect and professionalism. We know that listening and asking questions is critical to finding the right magnet solutions. We pursue these solutions with advanced thinking and a use of technology advancements to optimize the magnetics within an application.

We have assisted customers in virtually every industry and have counseled customers in some of the most complex magnet applications known.  Our customers have come to rely on us for assistance in material selection, design, innovation, creativity, and knowledge in permanent magnets.  We are committed to our “Customer as Partners” philosophy, and repeatedly have our customers tell us that we “think differently and provide solutions.” 

Our U.S. operation, which includes Engineering, Technical Sales, Marketing, Operations, Quality Control, and Administration, is located in Alabama with additional resources for Engineering in Louisville, KY and San Jose, CA, and quick-turn production also in Louisville, KY. Our Magnet Manufacturing, Magnetic Assembly, MIM Facilities, and Quality Management Systems are located in China and Vietnam. All of our facilities hold certifications ISO 9001, 14001, 18001, and 27001 with additional factories that are also TS16949 for automotive and ISO 13485 for medical

Globally, we employ over 3,500 engineering, technical and assembly personnel.  We respond quickly to requests for engineering review, prototypes, ramp-up in manufacturing, and putting Quality Management Systems in place.  Our engineering staff continues to grow, but today it is comprised of over 175+ engineers with magnetic, electrical, motor development, mechanical, and industrial engineering expertise.
