“The business is always highly responsive and well organised. Everyone is open to suggestions and feedback received during quality management system discussions and audits.”
Brigham Consultants Ltd.
“We have been working with MGI and looking after its IT infrastructure since 2017. As MGI has grown, the requirements and challenges have increased. From just a handful of CAD workstations, there are now 30+ engineers working across various disciplines, using a multitude of applications and working from multiple sites/homes. We position ourselves as the IT department at MGI. We have seamless communication with personnel from all areas of the business on a day-to-day basis, allowing Krayma staff and MGI staff to have an extremely effective working relationship. This allows us to monitor, maintain, support and enhance MGI's infrastructure collectively as a team. It's a pleasure to do business with Mike and everyone else at MGI.”

F1 Approach

Our core philosophy is to leverage our vast and unrivalled experience in F1, offering engineering solutions that maximises sustainability through various innovative design methodologies developed within the F1 industry. We are focused on delivering customised, highly innovative solutions to meet our client’s specific requirements. Our DNA is rooted in extensive Research and Development (R&D), fast-paced development, on-time, within-budget, and reliance on a trusted international network of partners and specialists.

F1 has always been a breeding ground for the fast-paced development and application of new technology. From powertrain evolution to aerodynamic advancements, engineers continually push the limits of what they can achieve to the ultimate edge. Unfortunately, due to F1’s secrecy, these developments do not tend to be shared to the wider scientific/engineering community. We aim to share the know-how of these developed solutions to industries such as aerospace and automotive. Our commercial strength is to deliver these F1 cutting-edge technology solutions to multiple industries.

The F1 industry, in its relentless pursuit of minimising car mass while maintaining high safety standards to maximise performance, has developed an extensive know-how of technologies and processes. We are poised to use our combined 200+ years of experience in the industry to apply these technologies to contribute to the UK Government’s challenge of net zero by 2050. As all the industries work towards the ambitious challenges, MGI wants to be the enabler to achieve this goal. 

We are racing towards net zero, with an F1 mindset and an experienced engineering team to lead the way!

Systems and Powertrain Integration

We possess the knowledge and expertise from a rich motorsport background. Many of our team have been working at the pinnacle of the industry in Formula 1, allowing us to offer a wide range of engineering solutions across multiple sectors including motorsport, automotive, marine and aerospace applications. A testament to this is our AS9100D certification, the leading quality management system standard for the aerospace industry.

Lightweight Structures

The design of ultra-lightweight composite components is at the core of our expertise. Utilising cutting-edge computer aided design software and processes, we work closely with our clients to deliver technologically advanced solutions to meet their required specifications.

Our engineering staff provide a level of knowledge that allows MGI to not only exceed client expectations, but to also achieve a competitive edge in the market. We oversee the fulfilment of products from design and tooling, through to manufacture and certification.

Our advanced capabilities enable us to deliver results for our clients that are on time and on budget. We thrive on meeting engineering challenges within the automotive, aerospace and marine sectors, striving to meet and exceed client expectations. 

Additive Manufacturing

Making a three-dimensional product from a CAD model or digital 3D model is known as additive manufacturing, sometimes known as 3D printing. Using CAD software or 3D object scanners, additive manufacturing employs tools to guide the layer-by-layer deposition of material in exact geometric patterns. In additive manufacturing, as the name suggests, materials are added to an item to build an object. Despite the fact that “3D printing” and “rapid prototyping” are frequently used to refer to additive manufacturing, each technique is essentially a subset of additive manufacturing. Here at MGI we have a selection of UltiMaker models which we use for jigs and fixtures and prototyping.
