Fortius Metals is a large format additive manufacturing company specializing in new materials. These patented, groundbreaking metal alloys enable stronger, lighter fabrication for customers’ products ranging from rockets to electric vehicles. Fortius, headquartered near Boulder, Colorado, was formed in 2021 to commercialize wire-based products for use in robotic welding applications – with enhanced material properties such as 2x strength, improved corrosion resistance, and higher thermal conductivity. Fortius in-house capabilities include wire manufacturing as well as wire arc and wire laser (wire DED) large format 3D printing cells.
Fortius Metals develops welding wire specific to customer requirements across a range of alloys.
Fortius wire offers ideal metallurgy for welding the unweldable, such as 1xxx, 2xxx, 6xxx, and 7xxx series aluminum by solving hot tearing and hot cracking issues.
Founded to develop nanostructured metal alloy wires for robotic additive manufacturing, Fortius Metals envisions reshoring the metal manufacturing supply chain while creating high-skilled manufacturing jobs across American factories.
