The AddMag project was selected as one of the M-ERA.Net success stories, highlighting its scientific excellence and strong industrial impact in the field of advanced magnetic materials. Funded under the M-ERA.Net programme, the project demonstrated that additive manufacturing can be used to produce permanent magnets with outstanding magnetic performance, high dimensional accuracy, and improved sustainability compared to conventional manufacturing routes.

The project involved the K7 research group of the Jožef Stefan Institute, led by Dr. Benjamin Podmiljšak, which contributed significantly to the development and validation of innovative approaches for the additive manufacturing of magnetic materials and to the demonstration of industrially relevant use cases.

Being recognized as an M-ERA.Net success story, AddMag underlines the importance of international collaboration in advancing circular-economy-based solutions, reducing dependence on primary earth resources, and strengthening Europe’s strategic position in sustainable magnet technologies.
