Its technology creates internal structures for smart industrial production, including coolant systems for gas turbines that exceed current heat exchanger performance. The company’s IP is built on four years of research at Imperial College and it licenses TOffee to businesses using additive manufacturing. The software is particularly applicable to the aeronautics and automotive industries. Existing customers include GE Aviation, Baker Hughes and a Formula 1 motor racing team. TOffeeAM plans to use the new funding to hire engineers and additional staff, expand engineering capabilities and grow its customer base.
