Quality Management

Why it matters:

  • Process variation or magnetic inconsistency can affect tool performance, wafer handling, and system reliability
  • Tight tolerances and repeatability are critical to maintaining yield and minimizing downtime
  • Documentation, traceability, and process control are essential for qualification and long-term support

What Permag Does:

  • Implements rigorous quality management systems to ensure consistent magnetic performance lot-to-lot
  • Maintains tight process controls, inspection protocols, and full material traceability
  • Partners closely with customers to support qualification, validation, and long-term production requirements

Reliable Supply Chain

Why it matters:

  • Disruptions in the rare-earth supply chain risk magnetic component availability and potentially impacting process tool shipments
  • OEMs need confidence their magnet supplier’s supply chain can deliver on-time, allowing them to meet customers’ ramp expectations
  • Long product lifecycles require materials that are not only high-performing, but also sustainably sourced

What Permag Does:

  • Leverages deep materials expertise to select the optimal magnetic materials for each application
  • Secures access to advanced and next-generation magnetic materials through a stable global supply chain
  • Designs magnetic solutions that balance performance, reliability, and long-term availability for semiconductor equipment and processes
