About us
We are driven to deliver production excellence
Our background in Materials Science, Engineering and Production combined for AM is critical in understanding and solving the problems manufacturers face. The team is composed of eight (and growing!) core members and a supporting network of advisors and partners. Magnitudes’ primary focus is on building knowledge verticals in aerospace, materials science, software and manufacturing. Because our scope is strictly metal AM production, our results are state-of-the-art.
