Nano Dimension to Develop New Ceramics 3D Printing Materials for Space Apps Aerospace

by Aerospace

Nano Dimension, a leader in the field of 3D printed electronics, has received a budget from the Israel Innovation Authority which will be used to finance a project to develop ceramics 3D printing materials, that can be used in inkjet technology, thus allowing the printing of low density and high thickness objects for space applications. The total approved budget for this project is NIS 585,000 (approximately $165,000), of which the Israel Innovation Authority will finance 30%. The terms of the grant provide that we will pay royalties on future sales up to the full grant amount.
