than 36 locations to operate around the world," said
Kotka. "We see the need for line and base maintenance
to continue, we see increasing demand for redeliveries related maintenance and engineering support, we
see that a lot of assets are changing and will change
ownership, where our asset management teams can
be involved."
In the past years, Magnetic MRO has been investing
in technology and ERP developments, allowing for
greater control and efficiency in their global operations
and better business transparency, said Kotka. In that
vein, Magnetic has developed, for example, a fingerprint signature solution, which helps to electronically
manage thousands of task cards and work order signatures during heavy maintenance projects. Magnetic
also invested in the 3D scanning tool FreeScan X7, to
scan aircraft parts and fuselage.
"It is an ultra-portable, handheld 3D laser scanner with a flexible and convenient scanning mode,
providing high accuracy and stability and covering
all the depth and thickness measurements. We have

been developing further our 3D printing capabilities
for spare aircraft parts. Products printed, for example,
include tray table latches or armrest covers," Kotka
described.
Kotka added that the company has been building up
their engine maintenance service unit, having bought
engine line maintenance tooling and providing training for the team to expand its services this year.
"One of the things that makes us unique is our mission to reinvent existing business models and deliver
a superior customer experience to the global MRO
industry," Kotka said. "We are also unique because
we're still that same team of bright-eyed aviation specialists with a passion for those big steel birds. We
care. We care about our global family, our customers,
partners and the industry that we're all a part of. We
care enough to keep pushing the boundaries of not
only our own domain, but the whole aviation industry.
After all, we are in this for the long run."
The company at large has been going through
changes, as well, in the past couple of years. In
