Overview
We passionately advance the technologies of today and tomorrow. As a reliable partner, we work with our customers to develop application solutions that make it possible to meet constantly increasing requirements. We push technical boundaries with groundbreaking solutions. The use of our materials as well as our refined solutions and their special magnetic properties are the key to making our customers’ systems smaller, lighter, more efficient and, last but not least, safer. Thereby we contribute significantly to the saving of resources and the protection of our environment. The world of magnetism is our home. Using a wide variety of raw materials, VAC composes more than 170 alloys with outstanding properties. In-depth material know-how paired with high application competence enables outstanding solutions, from semi-finished alloy products and parts to cores, inductive components, rare-earth permanent magnets and magnet systems. Furthermore, we are extensively vertically integrated which allows us to produce e.g. cores, components, stamped parts, lamination stacks and permanent magnets with full control over the material properties. This simplifies business for our customers and clarifies responsibilities between all steps within the value chain. At the same time, we have an extensive interface to various industries on all levels of the value chain, which helps us to understand present and future market requirements comprehensively. This enables us to focus our research and development teams accordingly. We passionately advance the technologies of today and tomorrow.

We specializes in the manufacture of magnetic alloys and special alloys (e.g. special spring alloys), which finds application in many industries right from electrical, electronics to automotive, power generation & monitoring, aircraft, generators & motors, space etc. Advanced Materials VACUUMSCHMELZE GmbH & Co. KG is a leading global manufacturer of advanced magnetic materials and related products. In 1914, the first vacuum melting furnace laid the foundation for today's VACUUMSCHMELZE. Then in 1923, melting alloys in a vacuum went into production on an industrial scale. This initial operation was located in Hanau, Germany and later grew into a company that operates on a worldwide basis: with 4.100 employees in more than 50 countries with annual sales of about approx. 400 million Euro Today, VACUUMSCHMELZE’s range of products comprises a broad array of advanced semi-finished materials and parts, inductive components for the electronics, magnets and magnet assemblies for use in a wide variety of fields and industries spanning watch-making and medical technology, renewable energies, shipbuilding, automotive and aviation. The use of VACUUMSCHMELZE products is so extensive that we all use them every day - without knowing it.
