The development of spacecraft has always been reliant on new and advanced technologies. Additive manufacturing (AM), for example, gives aerospace engineers the design freedom and rapid prototyping capabilities required to develop new parts for satellites, while meeting the strict requirements of the aerospace industry. So, when aerospace venture capital startup Velontra looked to develop a hypersonic propulsion system for space applications, it turned to Innovative 3D Manufacturing, user of Renishaw’s AM systems.
