Founded in 1974, Kimco Magnetics is one of the original pioneers to commercialize products made with rare earth magnet materials. Kimco Magnetics was acquired in 1984 by BEI Technologies and then by Schneider Electric in 2005, and was subsequently added to the business unit of Custom Sensors & Technologies in 2006. We have merged leading-edge capabilities and cost effective manufacturing know-how with highly personalized applications expertise. This combination has propelled BEI Kimco Magnetics into market dominance where we have remained a leading manufacturer of brushless DC motors and linear and rotary voice coil actuators for over 35 years. In that time, we have put thousands of BEI Kimco motors and actuators into products in markets ranging from medical and automotive to office and factory automation.

With a time-to-market as short as eight weeks, BEI Kimco Magnetics has maintained innovative, high quality products and holds numerous electro-magnetic patents. At BEI Kimco, we never lose sight of the value of personal service, expert design engineering, and product innovation.

Optimizing Motion Control Design

At BEI Kimco Magnetics, we integrate our expertise with customer requirements in motion control devices. Latest technologies range from Smart Actuators, to SERVO-SMART actuator systems, providing direct drive actuation for applications from factory automation, to low-bandwidth torquers, ideal for gimbal drives, robotics and other stabilized platform applications. It means faster, quieter, more reliable devices for semiconductor and medical equipment where throughput and life itself are critical to success. We remain deeply committed to solving your application challenges through technological innovation. Take our Spherical Voice Coil Actuator for example – Roll Pitch and Yaw motion in one device. Think of the possibilities. With our brushless DC noise attenuation patent – perhaps you may find it to be the right answer.

Answering Customer Demands

BEI Kimco Magnetics is dedicated to taking technology to the limit. At our Business Development & Technology Center, we challenge ourselves to create innovative ways to meet new application needs. BEI Kimco has developed brushless DC motors to operate virtually noise-free, ideal for user confidence in quiet operating systems and patient care applications.

Our Products include

	>> Rotary Voice Coil Actuators >> Linear Voice Coil Actuators >> Smart Voice Coil Actuators BEI Kimco Magnetics' brand of voice coil actuators are engineered to fit high performance motion control needs. The hysteresis-free, cog-free operation and high acceleration rate make voice coils ideal for limited stroke requirements.

Linear Voice Coil Actuators

BEI Kimco Voice Coil Actuators are ideally suited for such demanding applications as semiconductor equipment, defense systems and life-sustaining medical systems; Our voice coil actuators are direct drive, hysteresis-free, cog-free devices offering high-acceleration and “clean” technology. They deliver infinite position sensitivity, limited only by resolution of the feedback device. These units exhibit perfectly smooth force-versus stroke characteristics. New packaging and miniaturization capabilities offer the designer added flexibility without compromise. Units can be packaged for integrated assemblies including encoder, motor, switch or other functions to streamline operations and cost.
