The term, in context

AI-assisted draft · approved dataset

Levius, from Estes, is a magnesium-processing platform that coats and forms large structural magnesium components end-to-end within a single facility, using a lower-energy coating process to make magnesium viable for demanding, ruggedized enclosures. Magnus is a companion battery-pack system built around magnesium-alloy structures that pairs with off-the-shelf battery cells to reach high energy density for heavy-duty applications such as rail, marine, and off-highway vehicles.
