Sidus Space 3D print satellites with Markforged

Watch Sidus Space’s success story:

Sidus Space 3D print satellites with Markforged industrial 3D printers, achieving significant gains in weight reduction, cost reduction, and lead time on new parts.

Sidus Space operates from a 35,000-square-foot manufacturing, assembly, integration, and testing facility focused on commercial satellite design, manufacture, launch, and data collection.

By 3D printing components of their spacecraft with Markforged’s aerospace certified Onyx FR-A and Carbon Fibre FR-A materials, Sidus Space can rapidly modify their designs, reduce weight for critical tolerances, and meet stringent standards.

The modular nature of their designs also means that the LizzieSat is capable of hosting a wide range of components and technologies. The end result is meeting customer requirements in a cost-effective, reliable and timely manner.
