How Goudsmit UK Helped

---

With increased competition in the market FGC faced two main challenges:

1. Rising costs on a range of magnets required to manufacture their products.
2. Long lead times for these magnets with their current suppliers.

FGC partnered with Goudsmit UK to overcome their supply and engineering challenges. Leveraging advanced manufacturing technologies and extensive experience, Goudsmit UK delivered custom-made magnets tailored precisely to FGC’s requirements, significantly reducing costs and lead times:

• Our technical experts collaborated closely with FGC, providing comprehensive engineering support.
• We developed detailed engineering drawings specifying exact dimensions, tolerances, and material specifications.
• Additionally, we guided FGC on critical design considerations such as magnetic field strength, temperature resistance, and durability, ensuring optimal performance and longevity of the magnets.
• Following approval of the engineering drawings, Goudsmit UK produced samples to validate precise compliance with FGC’s specifications. Rigorous quality control checks throughout the manufacturing process ensured consistently high standards.

This bespoke engineering approach enabled FGC to enhance productivity, avoid delays, and maintain budgetary control.
