When it comes to specialized electromagnetic solutions, there is no one-size-fits-all option. Each industry and project has specific requirements for force, size, voltage, or working environment. That’s why at NAFSA Solenoids, we specialize in custom-made solenoid manufacturing, designed exactly according to each client’s needs.
What is a Custom Solenoid?
A custom solenoid is an electromagnetic device specifically designed to fit a particular application or environment. Unlike standard catalog solenoids, custom solenoids are developed taking into account key factors such as:
- Exact dimensions of the available space
- Required attraction or holding force
- Type of electric current (DC or AC)
- Environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, dust, etc.)
- Work cycles (frequency of activation/deactivation)
- Safety requirements or specific regulations
What Are Custom Solenoids Used For?
Custom solenoids can be used in almost all industrial sectors. Some examples:
- Rail Industry: electromagnetic brakes, retention systems
- Industrial Automation: handling metal parts, robotics
- Security: electromagnetic locks for emergency doors
- Medical and Research: control and precision devices
Each sector requires a different solution, and this is where our engineering team comes in.
