Technology & Products

Key Products

Amorphous metal alloys; Ultrasonic additive manufacturing services; Thermal spray coating materials

Technological Advantage

Patented UAM process for amorphous metals (US11628513) allows production of large-scale cladded surfaces with high corrosion and wear resistance, verified through NASA SBIR projects.

Differentiation

Value Proposition

Provides corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant amorphous metal coatings and components via ultrasonic additive manufacturing, reducing lead times and improving performance over conventional materials.

How They Differentiate

Unlike Fabrisonic which focuses on general UAM, LM Group specializes in amorphous metal alloys and cladding; unlike Liquidmetal which focuses on bulk metallic glass casting, LM Group uses solid-state AM.
