Sidus Space Moves into Multi-Material 3D Printing for Space Exploration
Sidus Space, Inc. has ventured beyond its traditional hardware and satellite manufacturing, introducing their own Multi-Material 3D Printing Division. Leveraging MarkForged X7 printers and the OnyxFR-A material, the company has achieved a big leap in manufacturing structural support components. This achievement is prominently evident in the upcoming LizzieSat satellite, slated for launch in March 2024.
