Joshua English, co-founder of Okom wrks labs shares his journey into the creation of a mycelium-based composite material, which has structural and load-bearing properties. Check out the show notes for more information.

Composites might seem like the secret language of aerospace engineers and hypercar builders, but Gabriel Mountjoy from Common Fibers is here to break down those barriers. He's out to prove that composites aren't just exotic materials—you can use them to elevate your own builds too.

At the core of lightweight, high-speed and energy-efficient electric and hybrid vehicles, composite materials play a crucial role in manufacturing advanced components. However, working with composites demands more than just selecting the right materials; it requires a new generation of precision tooling. The Composites Challenge Composites such as carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRPs) and glass fiber composites (GFRPs) are not easy to work with. Their multi-layered structure, fiber orientation and abrasive nature make them resistant to traditional machining techniques. Unlike metals like steel, composites don't deform, they fracture. That means every cut must be calculated, every edge protected, and every tool enhanced. “The challenge with machining composites is that your cutting tool needs to be both sharp and abrasion-resistant at the same time. It is a delicate balancing act,” said Chris Stewart, Kennametal Key Account Manager. Diamonds are Forever Diamonds aren't just a luxury; they are essential in composites machining. One of the most significant innovations from Kennametal is the introduction of KBDM PCD Face Mills. These polycrystalline diamond tools are a high-density platform designed for faster machining cycles and precise surface finishing of composite components. Their extreme hardness and thermal stability enable them to stay sharp, providing clean, delamination-free finishes on critical parts such as battery enclosures, structural panels, and motor housings. Additionally, the KD1400™ and KD1425™ grades, when combined with the cutter bodies, offer improved wear resistance and edge strength. Drilling Stacks Drilling into composites—especially when combined with metal layers—requires tools that can manage heat, resist wear, and maintain hole integrity. Kennametal's DAL drills can be used in all combinations of stacks such as CFRP-Ti-Al, CFRP-Ti, CFRP-Al, and also straight Ti or Al. They feature a double-angle point design and minimise burrs when exiting the metal side of the stack. Routing with ROCO Routing operations, which are vital for trimming, profiling, pocketing, side milling, and slotting composite parts, have also experienced significant innovation. Kennametal's ROCO burr router geometry pushes cutting forces both upward and downward, reducing delamination during side milling and slotting. Meanwhile, the down-cut routers from Kennametal produce clean top-surface finishes by pushing chips downward, making them ideal for visible parts where aesthetics and surface quality are important. “ROCO routers have seen great success across a range of composite materials and applications,” said Katie Myers, Kennametal Marketing Product Manager. “Our geometry paired with our new KCC05A CVD diamond coating grade is providing exceptional tool life and the ability to run at higher cutting parameters.” Additive Manufacturing in Tool Design Manufacturers are also leveraging additive manufacturing to create custom tool bodies with internal cooling channels and optimised weight distribution. These 3D-printed tools are lighter, more rigid and capable of handling complex geometries, especially in deep cavity applications like electric motor housings. For example, Kennametal's 3D printed stator bore tool for machining aluminium e-motor housings is capable of machining three large diameters in just one operation. The tool features airfoil-shaped arms with internal coolant channels, enabled by additive manufacturing, which improves chip evacuation and cooling. It also includes carbon fiber components to further reduce weight and improve handling. Additionally, Kennametal's RIQ inserts are ideal for machining large diameters, while the RIR inserts deliver precision for smaller diameters. When paired with Kenionic™ tool holders, these inserts form a high-performance reaming solution. Beyond the Shop Floor The influence of these tooling innovations extends far beyond the shop. By enabling the efficient processing of composites, advanced tools contribute directly to vehicle performance and sustainability. Lighter components reduce energy consumption and extend battery life. Precision machining minimises material waste and rework. And smarter tools help manufacturers scale production while maintaining quality and consistency. Some of the latest tools are embedded with smart sensors that monitor temperature, vibration and wear in real time. These tools communicate with CNC systems to dynamically adjust cutting parameters, reducing the risk of tool failure and ensuring consistent part quality. In high-volume EV production environments, where production time and repeatability are paramount, this level of intelligence is becoming a real competitive advantage. Longevity in Composites Tooling In high-demand manufacturing environments, tool longevity isn't just a convenience; it's a requirement. The future of composites tooling lies in deeper integration with digital manufacturing ecosystems. As EV and hybrid vehicles become more sophisticated, the tools that shape them must also evolve to become faster, smarter and more adaptable. Tooling is no longer a behind-the-scenes operation; it's now a critical part of the overall metal cutting strategy. “Innovation is our priority,” said Myers. “With all of the advancements being made in composite materials, our tools are constantly evolving to continue to provide a high level of performance and reliability in materials outside of the metals we've traditionally worked with.” Conclusion With advanced solutions like PCD face mills, stack-optimised drills, innovative router geometries and additive-manufactured tool bodies, manufacturers can meet the growing demands of composites machining head-on. The proper tooling just doesn't cut it anymore. It must accelerate production, improve quality and support sustainability.

Strong by Form: From Radical Idea to JEC Sustainability WinnerWhat started as a niche academic research project has become a deep tech startup operating across Europe and Latin America, with millions raised in private funding and grants. Strong by Form developed Woodflow, a technology that turns natural timber fibers into 3D-formed structural materials, enabling strong, lightweight, and carbon-reducing alternatives to concrete, aluminum, and even steel.Their design-driven approach doesn't just replicate wood planks—it reimagines wood as a high-performance composite, shaped by nature's logic and modern computational design.Built in Chile, Designed for EuropeThough most of the founding team hails from Chile, the company was strategically incorporated in Spain to operate within Europe's innovation and regulation ecosystem. Today, the team is 27 people strong and split across Chile, Germany, and Spain.“Europe is tough on regulation—but it's also where real scale is possible,” Andres explains.How Joy Division and Sustainable Slabs Came TogetherYes, their iconic waveform-style logo was sketched in five minutes. Yes, it was inspired by Joy Division. But that aesthetic also represents the undulating structural logic behind their composite designs. Andres' co-founder Jorge, an architect-turned-engineer, originally developed the idea while studying at ETH Zurich. His mission? Create the lightest, most material-efficient structural slab possible—starting with carbon fiber but pivoting to wood for scalability and sustainability.From Friendships to FoundingStrong by Form's founding trio came together through long-standing friendships and complementary skill sets—engineering, digital fabrication, and startup acceleration. When Jorge and Daniel realized they had a revolutionary process but no path to market, they called Andres, who had just left venture capital. He joined to build the business—and soon they were securing grants, awards, and investor interest from forestry giants and mobility leaders alike.JEC Debut: The Wooden Bike Frame That Got Everyone TalkingAt JEC 2025, Strong by Form unveiled a bike frame prototype made entirely from Woodflow, designed using composite logic rather than milled timber. It's a visual and functional proof that their stamped biocomposites can handle form, function, and strength—without carbon-intensive inputs.“This bike isn't a gimmick—it's a signal. We're building with wood the way carbon fiber is used in aerospace,” says Andres.Mobility Is Back on the AgendaWhile construction remains their core focus, Strong by Form is expanding into automotive and micromobility. BMW was one of the first to express interest back in 2019—and is now working with the startup on large-scale, interior and exterior vehicle components. A million-euro grant is fueling development of their advanced pressing process, and they're now actively engaging new partners in bikes, transportation, and e-mobility.Investors, Corporates, and the New PlaybookStrong by Form's investor cap table is as unconventional as their tech: four corporate investors (including Europe's top timber producers and construction leaders) and a mix of impact-oriented VCs. Andres admits they had to throw out the startup rulebook.“The first thing you're told is to avoid corporates. Well, our first investor was a corporate,” he laughs.The result is a founder journey that doesn't follow Silicon Valley tropes—but proves that material science innovation can (and must) be funded differently.Learn MoreStrong by Form – Woodflow technology for carbon-neutral construction & mobilityJEC World – Global leader in composites innovation Be sure to follow Sesamers on Instagram, LinkedIn, and X for more cool stories from the people we catch during the best Tech events!

Can composite really outperform ceramic in the right case? Do you know when to choose an inlay over an onlay? What makes occlusal veneers so effective — even at just 0.6 mm thickness? After years of anticipation, Dr. Pascal Magne finally joins Jaz Gulati on the podcast for an episode packed with adhesive dentistry gold. They dive deep into occlusal veneers, material selection, and why indirect composite may be the best-kept secret for worn, root-filled molars. They also unpack the full bonding protocol step-by-step—from air abrasion and IDS to silane application and cementation with preheated composite. Whether you're doing full rehabs or composite repairs, this episode is your go-to guide for smarter biomimetic dentistry. https://youtu.be/WTsF1mD-nTo Watch PDP221 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: After applying silane, don't just let it evaporate—let it react for 30 seconds, then air dry, and crucially, use a heat source (like a hairdryer) for 60 seconds to activate it properly and achieve optimal bond strength. This enhances the effectiveness of silane and significantly improves the bond strength of indirect restorations like composite or lithium disilicate. Key Takeaways: Occlusal veneers can be as thin as 0.6 mm. Indirect composite is often a superior choice for restorations. Proper bonding protocols are crucial for successful restorations. Focusing on strengths rather than weaknesses is key in dentistry. Conservative approaches in dentistry can preserve tooth structure. The vital tooth is always preferable to a non-vital tooth. Composite resin has wear properties similar to enamel. Occlusal veneers provide excellent protection for compromised teeth. Porcelain veneers have long-term durability compared to composites. The evolution of composite materials has led to better options for restorations. Zirconia is strong but difficult to adjust and bond effectively. Immediate dentin sealing is crucial for successful bonding and patient comfort. The Dahl principle allows for minimal preparation in certain cases. Composites can be as effective as ceramics when used correctly. Understanding the properties of materials is essential for successful restorations. Thin occlusal veneers can be successfully bonded with proper techniques.
