The North Manchester facility is capable of producing transformers up to 1,000 VA and frequencies up to 250,000 Hertz.

An ISO9001 certified company, Custom Magnetics has built its reputation on engineering expertise and a commitment to quality. A well-trained workforce of approximately 65 is capable of fast delivery of small to medium volume orders from the North Manchester facility.

During the 1990's, Custom Magnetics began developing higher volume production capabilities with its joint venture partner in Baroda, India. Over the years, CMI-India has proven to be a reliable partner with the ability to produce large volume orders at low cost.

In 2002, Custom Magnetics further strengthened its production capabilities with the acquisition of James Electronics located in Chicago, Illinois. The James Electronics Division, operating for over 50 years, is a leading manufacturer of telecommunications transformers and power supplies.
