About VAC
VAC, or Vacuumschmelze, develops magnetic materials and assemblies used in electric drives, sensors, power electronics and industrial equipment. Its VACODYM neodymium-iron-boron and VACOMAX samarium-cobalt magnets support high torque density, compact dimensions and operation across demanding temperature ranges.
The company supplies individual magnets, bonded assemblies, soft-magnetic alloys, stamped laminations and complete rotor-stator systems. Vertical integration covers alloy development, rapid solidification, pressing, coating, machining and assembly, letting motor designers tune magnetic, thermal and mechanical performance together. Applications include traction and aerospace motors, high-speed compressors, generators, robotic actuators, current sensors and electromagnetic-compatibility components.
