eVAC: Supporting Mission-Critical Infrastructure

As the only producer of rare-earth magnets at scale outside Asia, eVAC’s Sumter facility is helping protect America’s energy and economic independence.

For too long, America has had to rely on foreign production of the rare earth materials, which are indispensable to mission-critical systems integral to strengthening our energy independence, while protecting our economic and national security.

Rare earth magnets are the silent materials powering America.

As the only producer of rare-earth magnets at scale in the Western Hemisphere, eVAC has the capability to produce magnets for a full spectrum of mission-critical applications, including, but not limited to:

• Weapons systems
  Rare-earth magnets are found in over 78 percent of U.S. defense programs, from stealth bombers to submarines and beyond.
  
  
• Electric propulsion capabilities
  Magnets like the ones produced by eVAC power low-impact, high-torque drive systems for the next generation of tactical vehicles, on land and in the sea.
  
  
• Actuators 
  Replacing heavy hydraulic lines with high-powered, dense, yet efficient electromechanical movement for flight control surfaces, hatch operations, and more.
  
  
• Guidance systems
  Helping power the fin control and stabilization tools needed for missiles and smart munitions that must be capable of hitting targets with pin-point accuracy.
  
  
• Undulators
  Rare-earth magnets are integral to the specialized, high-field magnetic assemblies used in free-electron lasers and particle accelerators for directed energy operations.

• Sensors
  eVAC-produced materials can be integrated to enhance the range and sensitivity of the next generation of radar, sonar, and covert detection capabilities for a range of government applications.

Specific use cases will be determined by the needs of our government and civilian partners in this dynamic time for global affairs.
