A VSHAPER 3D Printer Will Land on M.A.R.S. this Summer 3D Printing Processes

by Aerospace

Walks in a space suit, meals made of insects and space storms – this will be the reality of 6 people who will reside in the base to simulate Moon or Mars mission, this summer. The base is in Rzepiennik Biskupi, which houses the largest private observatory in Poland. This two-week adventure in the space habitat will be observed by the team working on a project called M.A.R.S., in collaboration with project partners, including the producer of VSHAPER 3D Printers.

AM solutions for payload by Thales Alenia Space help satellite industry take off 3D Printing Events

by Aerospace

Sending satellites into orbit is both expensive and complex. Breaking free of Earth’s orbit is costly and the extreme conditions of space can be difficult to endure. This means that satellite parts need to be both very light and very strong. The advantages of additive manufacturing for space applications are evident and the entire space industry is excited about the possibilities that 3D printing can offer. Some of the latest solutions developed available in the market for payload components will be presented at IN(3D)USTRY next October 3-5 at Fira de Barcelona.
