Students develop a 3D printer with drylin linear units for the cost-effective production of structural elements in space
3D Printing in Space: igus Linear Axes Manufacture Spare Parts in Zero Gravity
When booms for solar panels or satellite antennas are transported into space on a carrier rocket, they are subjected to high stresses. To simplify the complex transportation process and accelerate the manufacturing of the components, the student team AIMIS-FYT is working on a 3D printing process. In…
