Materialise Magics
The most powerful data and build preparation software for additive manufacturing
Use CAD and mesh tools in Magics’ comprehensive toolbox to simplify and optimize your additive manufacturing (AM) workflow. Gain advanced control over your processes, automate repetitive tasks, and increase print success rates with the industry’s leading data and build preparation software — supporting you no matter which 3D printing technology you use.
Why Magics?
Advanced control over workflows
Import files, edit, cut, and label parts, create supports and lattice structures, simulate metal builds, slice models, optimize nest density, and more in one software environment.
Optimize and automate repetitive tasks
Reduce lead times, human error, and excessive manual effort by automating workflows, such as support generation, nesting, labeling, and simulation.
Technology neutral
No matter the technology or materials you use, you deserve one solution to meet all your needs.
Dependable support
From training courses to our Help Center to personalized advice, our team of experts is here to help you. Learn to embed Magics into your processes, optimize your use of Magics, and get the most out of its features.
Robust integrations cover your entire workflow
Experience enhanced traceability and connectivity by linking Magics with our CO-AM Software Platform, offering insights into revisions and more. Plus, manage basic machine parameters with Machine Manager.
Key features — from import to print
Import data types and formats
Import nearly all file formats, retain native color information, and stay in control of your original data.
Fix, edit, and enhance
Leverage both CAD and mesh (STL) tools to ensure high-quality, printable parts with tools like automatic fixing, offsets, and lattice structures.
Generate reports
Extract nearly any parameter from Magics to keep track of builds and ensure repeatability with fully customizable automatic reports.
Optimize nesting
Nest parts with speed and control using tools that range from manual to fully automatic in the Nester module.
Automate support generation
Optimize the speed and process of support generation with Magics modules tailored to specific 3D printing technologies.
Analyze builds
