From CAD Design to Test Fire in a Week

Launcher depends on Velo3D to 3D print complex rocket components for low-cost, small satellite delivery systems

Humankind launched the first orbital satellite in October of 1957. Sixty-five years later, more than 5,000 satellites are in service, with roughly half of them placed into low earth orbit (LEO) over the past two years. Much but not all of this activity comes courtesy of entrepreneur Elon Musk, whose SpaceX-launched satellite internet constellation Starlink will soon account for at least half of the objects circling our planet.


Dassault Systèmes at ILA Berlin 2022: Sustainable future solutions for aviation are created in virtual space

The aviation industry is facing profound changes. Sustainability is also determining future planning here. In the course of decarbonising air traffic, hydrogen engines are increasingly coming into focus. And thanks to technological advances, urban, electric aviation is no longer a vision of the future.

GE Aviation Singapore first to offer metal additive for engine component repair

As metal additive technology continues to gain momentum in the design and industrial production of new aerospace components, GE Aviation’s Loyang facility is the first maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facility worldwide that has been approved to use metal additive manufacturing for commercial jet engine component repairs.

To the Moon and Beyond with Additive Manufacturing

Aerojet Rocketdyne uses metal 3D printing technology from Velo3D to make a critical flight component lighter, smaller, and much less expensive than its predecessors

On the afternoon of December 19, 1972, Apollo 17’s command and service module CSM-114 “America” splashed down in the Pacific Ocean, bringing its crew and cargo safely home. The event marked the end of NASA’s eleven-year lunar program and humankind’s final visit to the Moon. Thanks in part to Los Angeles, Calif.-based Aerojet Rocketdyne—a manufacturer with a proud heritage in spaceflight and rocket propulsion—we’ll be going back soon, this time to stay.

Optomec Receives $1.5M Air Force Contract for Additive Repair of F35 Large Titanium Blisks

Solution has potential to Reduce Costs by 80% and Save $10s of Millions Annually

The US Air Force has awarded Optomec a $1.5 million contract to develop a Metal Additive Manufacturing system and process that enables the repair of oversized titanium components used in aircraft engines.

SLM Solutions Group AG ("SLM Solutions," "SLM" or the "Company") is proud to announce that Sintavia, one of the premier manufacturers of advanced propulsion and thermodynamic systems for the aerospace, defense, and space industry, has ordered two NXG XII 600s in a move that will significantly advance the entire industry.

mz Toner Technologies develops 3D printing process for use in space

The 3D printing market is expanding and the range of 3D printed products is becoming more and more extensive: from machine components to dental products to organ transplants. The company mz Toner Technologies, together with the Technical University of Cologne, is now developing a new 3D printing process based on electrophotography, which, among other things, should enable printing in space.
