Dyndrite has secured a multi-year licensing settlement with Ursa Main that may see the defence producer leverage Dyndrite LPBF Professional to help its steel additive manufacturing exercise.
The Dyndrite LPBF Professional answer has been designed to present scriptable CAD-to-Print environments, ship refined supplies and course of improvement instruments, and unlock fashionable agile qualification and calibration processes. It can help materials improvement, half qualification and the manufacturing of high-performance rocket propulsion techniques at Ursa Main.
A six-month technical analysis of Dyndrite LPBF Professional is alleged to have delivered a greater efficiency than Ursa Main’s current toolset in its engineering and manufacturing workflows, with the corporate now integrating the answer because the ‘core software program of its additive technique.’
Ursa Main has made additive manufacturing know-how integral to the event and manufacturing of staged combustion rocket engines and strong rocket motors. The Draper engine line is the first to implement Dyndrite LPBF Professional.
“It’s been thrilling working facet by facet with Ursa Main’s engineers,” stated Steve Walton, Head of Product at Dyndrite. “Watching Dyndrite LPBF Professional instantly and persistently remedy the elemental parameter and toolpath challenges that plague legacy instruments. It’s enabled help discount, improved floor end, and extra constant microstructure. All of this confirms we’re delivering strategic worth and a a lot wanted answer to business.”
“Collaboration with Dyndrite has enabled Ursa Main to construct superior parameter methods that had been out of attain only a yr in the past,” added Thomas Pomorski, Director of Additive Manufacturing at Ursa Main. “Their software program instruments are serving to us scale advanced AM {hardware} throughout machines and platforms, unlocking a brand new imaginative and prescient for propulsion manufacturing. Collectively, we’re innovating via technical obstacles to ship next-generation defence and hypersonic propulsion {hardware} that may be manufactured at scale with unprecedented pace.”
“Ursa Main is pushing the boundaries of propulsion, and we’re proud to be a part of that mission,” supplied Harshil Goel, CEO of Dyndrite. “They’re not simply adopting new software program, they’re changing legacy workflows with a programmable, automation-ready method to additive manufacturing. That’s precisely why we constructed LPBF Professional, to offer superior producers like Ursa Main the ability to maneuver quick, scale sensible, and management each a part of their course of.”
