Take A Look At Our Work

One of the Largest Ferrite Stockists in Europe

Offering over 700 cores from our UK warehouse, Gateway is one of the largest ferrite stockists in Europe. Our stock profile is built to ensure we cover all customer applications including power, signal and EMI for both low and high frequency applications. Stocking material from Ferroxcube, TDK (EPCOS), Fair-Rite and Mag Inc ensures quality is never an issue for our customers.

Gateway also stocks an exclusive range of blocks from TDK (EPCOS), Ferroxcube, Fair-Rite and Mag Inc. The range of stock comprises of the latest materials from the leading ferrite manufacturers.

The Machine Shop has close links factories, allowing us to work with the technical departments to create new materials that are designed specifically for our customers application, these can then be pressed into blocks and machined.

Tools used for machining ferrite

Tooling

Gateway works exclusively with UK tooling manufacturers to produce the specialist tooling required for machining ferrite. All machine tools are produced to Gateways exact specification, a specification built on years of knowledge, experience and most of all Research & Development. This allows The Machine Shop to offer a dynamic and flexible response to our customers requirements and provides a solid foundation to meet the most demanding of designs allowing us to machine the most challenging geometries whilst maintaining lead times as short as one week for custom geometry cores.

Workholding used for machining ferrite

Workholding

Gateway uses the latest technology to continuously refine its work holding techniques. In turn this allows us to push our machining capabilities and meet the most demanding of requirements. The nature of ferrite dictates that standard mechanical work holdings cannot be used. The Machine Shop uses magnetic workholdings as the foundation of all jobs. These magnetic work holdings are customized and supplemented through additive and subtractive machining techniques to ensure we keep costs and delivery times down to an absolute minimum for our customers.
