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!
