New Equipment Advances At Magnet-Schultz Of America!

Magnet-Schultz of America (MSA) is preparing to expand its manufacturing capabilities like never before through a partnership with Winema Transfer Machines, a German-based equipment manufacturer.  MSA is leading the way to bring the first machine of its kind to the United States later this summer.  The machine will come directly from Grosselfingen, Germany where

Effects of Side Load on a Solenoid

Welcome back to the MSA blog!  In this post, we will take a look at how side load can affect solenoids. Magnet-Schultz’s Program Management Checklist allows us to play cards up with our customers at the start of each new project so that our Program Management, Design, Manufacturing Engineering, and Operations/Production teams can fully

Temperature Impacts on Solenoids – Part 2

Temperature Impacts on Solenoids - Part 2 In our last blog, we learned about the different ways temperature impacts the design of a solenoid and the importance of understanding requirements up front to ensure our customers have success and achieve optimal performance within the dimensional and technical requirements of their applications.  Solenoids do work.

Temperature Impacts on Solenoids – Part 1

Temperature Impacts on Solenoids - Part 1 Have you ever experienced the frustration of trying to use an overheated cell phone?  Perhaps it wasn’t your cell phone, but rather an overheated car engine that delayed your morning commute to the office.  Though these items may not have completely stopped working altogether, your ability to

MSA’s Quality Analysis Capabilities Increase

Magnet-Schultz of America has added new machinery that increases our abilities in quality and manufacturing analysis. The addition of a new cross-cut machine, grinding machine, and upgraded microscopes allows MSA to perform even more comprehensive inspections. By setting parts in epoxy, MSA can effectively freeze all components in place and then take a complete and

How Solenoid Modifications Improve Performance

Common Solenoid Modifications While Magnet-Schultz of America has a comprehensive range of reference solenoid products, the greatest value we have to offer our customers are modified or entirely custom solenoids and actuators. Many engineers or purchasing agents contact us knowing what type of function and performance they need in a solenoid but they may not

MSA Adds Automated Staking Assembly

Magnet-Schultz of America has added new staking process automation that will allow us to achieve even greater process control while improving production capacity and PPM levels. The automation system has been developed and implemented in conjunction with Magnet-Schultz Memmingen, and represents an increasing exchange of ideas and capabilities that will bring benefits to customers in

MSA Expands Machining Capabilities With Equipment Addition

Magnet-Schultz of America has added new machinery that increases our technical capabilities and output, allowing us to exceed quality expecations while simultaneously improving our lead times. The addition of this new 5 spindle Swiss style CNC lathe provides us with additional capacity in the manufacturing of the highly complex components required to deliver the highest

Hydraulic Solenoid Design Features

In pt. 1 of our hydraulic solenoids post, we described how they differ from electromechanical solenoids and discussed some basic applications. We also had a follow-up blog post that described the two major functional categories of hydraulic solenoids, on/off and proportional. This post will expand on the different design and manufacturing features of tubes
