Students at ETH Zurich have developed a multi-metal 3D printing process that can produce rocket engine components in days ...
Rocket engineering is shifting from painstaking machining and welding to a world where engines and tanks emerge from printers as single, sculpted pieces of metal. Instead of treating 3D printing as a ...
Rocket Lab has flown over 800 Rutherford engines to space, showcasing the benefits of additive manufacturing in rocket ...
The new 3D printer will print complex parts for powerful rocket engines that can thrust heavy satellites into Earth's orbit.
SpaceX owns 98% of global rocket launches, a monopoly with virtually no competition. Only China is competing with Elon Musk at this point in number of launches and, while the country is getting closer ...
When Rocket Lab unveiled the Rutherford engine at the 31st Space Symposium in Colorado, it looked like any other space engine. It wasn’t. Rocket Lab manufactured the Rutherford via additive ...
With this process, production timelines have been cut by as much as 90-97% while improving repeatability and reducing failure ...

Researchers at Fraunhofer IGCV have developed a 3D printing process using multiple metals to produce rocket components in a single run.
SpaceX currently controls nearly every rocket launch on Earth. With 98% of global orbital launches under its belt, Elon Musk's company has become the de facto gatekeeper to space. While China is still ...
Relativity Space, the first company to 3D print rockets and build the largest metal 3D printers in the world, today detailed its plans to operate one of the largest rocket engine test facilities in ...
