Space

Space is unforgiving on mass and quality. Parts have to handle launch loads, vacuum and big swings in temperature, and every gram counts against the launch budget. We print thruster chambers, brackets, waveguides and propellant components in titanium and nickel superalloys, with the traceability and qualification records the mission needs.
