About BOMATEC
Bomatec AG is a Swiss company with 30 years of experience in magnet technology, headquartered in Höri (Canton of Zurich). The company develops and manufactures permanent magnets and magnet assemblies based on sintered neodymium (NdFeB), samarium-cobalt (SmCo), ferrite, AlNiCo and plastic-bonded magnets (compression-bonded NdFeB). The value chain includes project management, magnet engineering with FEM simulation (Opera, ANSYS), supplier management, prototype construction in its own workshop in Höri, testing, logistics and series production. Plastic-bonded magnets and magnet assemblies are manufactured at the company's own production site Bomatec Malaysia in Swiss quality; a new production facility is under construction. Served industries include automotive, medical technology, e-mobility, renewable energies and factory automation.
