Latest Announcements by Industry Leaders
- In September 2024, Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, said, “It is not widely understood that SpaceX has the most advanced 3D metal printing technology in the world.”
- Gwenael Aridon, lead engineer at Airbus Space Assembly, says, “The metal 3D printer will open new manufacturing opportunities in orbit, including the ability to produce load-bearing structural parts that will be more resilient than the plastic equivalent. Astronauts can directly fabricate tools such as spanners or mounting interfaces that can connect multiple parts. The flexibility and rapid availability of 3D printing in space will greatly improve astronaut autonomy.”
Recent Developments
- In June 2024, Agnikul Cosmos, an India-based private aerospace manufacturing company, launched the nation’s first 3D-printed rocket engine. This initiative reduces the time and cost associated with building rockets and boosts the country’s spacefaring capabilities.
- In October 2024, Rocket Lab, a publicly traded aerospace manufacturer, commenced using a 90-tom 3D printer to build the largest carbon composite rocket structures in history. The company's goal is to combine carbon composite technology, additive manufacturing, and autonomous robotics to design and build large-scale aerospace components to support Neutron’s launch cadence and Electron and Carbon composite structures.
