Details

Our goal: unlocking the full potential of lightweight materials! Magnesium, the lightest structural metal, significantly reduces weight and energy consumption. 3D printing enhances this effect – but only the right surface protection ensures usability. Our plasma-ceramic ULTRACERAMIC® surface technology shields even complex 3D geometries, increasing wear resistance by a factor of 1,000 and making corrosion nearly irrelevant. This makes magnesium lightweight components highly durable and resilient – perfect for high-performance applications in aerospace, mobility, and industry. Efficient, robust, revolutionary!

The Jury‘s Statement

The use of magnesium as a material has often faced challenges due to its susceptibility to corrosion and wear, leaving its significant lightweight potential untapped. With the development of »CAMM«, this issue has been convincingly addressed: the combination of additive manufacturing and the innovative Ultraceramic® technology results in lightweight and durable components that meet the requirements for both complex geometries and high stability. This forward-thinking material solution impresses with its ability to balance weight, functionality, and sustainability, setting a remarkable benchmark for demanding industries such as aerospace, automotive, and medical technology.
