May 2022

I hope you’re as invigorated as we are from meeting people IRL – first at AMUG and MACH, then at Rapid and the Digital Manufacturing Summit. It’s great to hear from people again in person – and there’s more to come. Check out our cool new Events page to stay up to date with all the latest opportunities to hear from us or meet us.

As I heard about what people were working on, it became clear that the industry is quickly maturing, and we’re no exception. What I love most about Authentise is that we’re so close to the voice of the customer, and quick to react to them.

That became clear in some of the latest features: For instance, the ability to blend metal powders across multiple different material types, with an indicator to show constituents. Our customers are creating their own alloys, and experimenting with new properties 🤯.

Same maturity helps us understand what information people on the shop floor really need. They asked for, and received, more detailed information on the part that they’re handling – what next steps look like, and further production information. The mobile app portion of the aMES is just getting smarter all the time.

As you can see there’s quite a lot happening. This is largely the result of a couple of investments paying off. Firstly, our acquisition of Elements in February, which brough Pete Harding on board – our incredible new Chief Engineer. Secondly the 6 new hires that have come on board in the last 2 months are making a major impact too. That’s quite aside from new team stars Charlie on marketing, and Keith driving the narrative on non-additive.  

There are plenty of other, seemingly smaller, changes too – for instance the ability to allow multiple manufacturing Runs being active at a single Workstation. 

Another few things are coming up that I’m very excited about, including some new partnerships that will be announced shortly. So, I can’t wait to write to you again in a month.

Until then, keep your eyes peeled on the events page (I’ll be in Pittsburgh early June), or let me know if you’d like to chat.
