In the defense sector, there’s no room for error—and no time for limitations. In our latest article, we explore how metal AM enables radical design freedom, empowering engineers to consolidate assemblies, reduce weight, and enhance durability through optimized geometries and advanced topologies. From aircraft pylons to missile components and structural midframes, additive manufacturing is removing design constraints and unlocking tactical advantages. Less weight. Fewer failure points. Greater reliability. With Nikon SLM Solutions technology at the core, we’re not just redesigning parts—we’re redefining what’s possible.

Breaking Barriers, Building Engines — The Final Episode of Our Karman Space Series Is Here! What does it take to reshape the future of space propulsion? Ingenuity, resilience—and the right partners. In the final installment of our four-part video series with Karman Space Programme, we follow the team from engine prep to hot-fire test, capturing the excitement, tension, and breakthrough that come from pushing boundaries with metal AM. Built on an SLM® system using Inconel 718, this regeneratively cooled thrust chamber proved fully reusable, leak-tight, and performance-ready in just four test campaigns. That’s not just a win for the student rocketry community—it’s a bold signal for the future of rapid iteration and high-performance propulsion. Watch how this mission came together—and what it means for the next generation of spaceflight. #AdditiveManufacturing #KarmanSpace #RocketScience #MetalAM #3DPrinting #Propulsion #Inconel718 #NikonSLMSolutions #Innovation #SpaceTech #StudentEngineering Airborne Engineering Ltd
