Magnetic Solutions for Medical Devices & Instrumentation

Medical devices leave no room for magnetic drift, corrosion or coating failure. We deliver miniature precision magnets and assemblies for infusion and dosing pumps, diagnostic instruments, dental equipment and lab automation — machined to tight tolerances, protected with application-appropriate coatings, and documented batch by batch.

What We See in Medical Device Projects

What medical device engineers tell us keeps them up at night — and why magnet sourcing matters more than it seems.

Miniature parts, unforgiving tolerances

As devices shrink, magnets drop below 2 mm while tolerance requirements stay absolute. A supplier without micro-machining discipline turns your compact design into an assembly yield problem.

Corrosion & coating integrity

Body fluids, cleaning agents and sterilization cycles attack unprotected magnets. Coating choice — and coating quality — determines whether your device survives its intended environment.

Long-term drift in critical functions

A dosing pump or analyzer must perform identically in year five as at calibration. Magnetic flux drift from under-specified grades or thermal exposure compromises the function your device is certified for.

Documentation for audits

Regulatory submissions and customer audits demand material traceability and inspection records. Missing documentation can block a launch even when the part itself is perfect.

How XAK Solves Them

Application-first engineering — we start from your operating conditions, not our catalog.

1

Micro-machining capability

Precision magnets from ~1 mm upward, ground and sliced to tolerances down to ±0.02–0.05 mm depending on geometry — with dimensional inspection on critical features.

2

Coatings matched to the environment

NiCuNi, epoxy, gold and parylene coatings selected for your exposure profile — moisture, chemicals or sterilization — with thickness and adhesion verified.

3

Stabilized grades for drift-critical designs

Grade selection and, where required, pre-aging stabilization treatment so the flux you calibrate against is the flux your device keeps.

4

Documentation built into delivery

Material batch records, dimensional inspection data and magnetic property measurements ship with your order — ready for your device history file.
