Next Gen 3D Printed Copper Rocket Revolutionising Additive Manufacturing in Space
Take a look at 3T RPD's 3D printed Copper rocket in action, revolutionising the way we use Additive Manufacturing in Space!
We worked in a perfect partnership with Launcher and EOS to break the boundaries within the industry and enhance the performance of Space components.
The high conductivity of the copper and complex Additive Manufactured internal structure we built has delivered world class results:
Max pressure: 430 PSI
Thrust: 2.77KN
Max chamber temp: 3,600 Kelvin
Cumulative burn to date: 300 seconds
Near zero degradation
Coolant temp = 280 degrees Celsius vs 153 degrees Celsius for Inconel
Copper AM part x20 more conductive than Inconel
High efficiency cooling
Longer chamber and nozzle life
We're excited to be part of a world first in the Space industry through our innovations in 3D printing.
3T RPD is a market leading production Additive Manufacturing (AM) company providing 3D printing services for customers in a range of industries including Aerospace, Automotive and the Medical sector.
