At Rymdforum 2025, University West’s booth will showcase cutting-edge manufacturing processes that are pivotal to the advancement of the space industry. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore both video presentations and physical components that exemplify the university’s research in the following areas:
3D Printing (Additive Manufacturing): Demonstrating advanced techniques such as Powder Bed Fusion, which enable the creation of complex, lightweight structures essential for aerospace applications.
Welding Technologies: Highlighting innovative welding methods, including plasma arc welding simulations, that ensure the structural integrity of space-bound components.
Thermal Spraying: Exhibiting processes like High-Velocity Oxy-Fuel (HVOF) spraying, which apply protective coatings to materials, enhancing their resistance to extreme temperatures and corrosion encountered in space environments.
These demonstrations reflect University West’s commitment to research and development in manufacturing processes that meet the rigorous demands of space exploration. Attendees will gain insights into how these technologies contribute to the production of reliable and efficient components for the aerospace sector
