Primus Aerospace adopts Velo3D’s titanium AM system

Primus Aerospace, a contract manufacturing partner to aerospace, defense & space OEMs, has joined the VELO^3D partner network with the purchase of a Ti6Al4V Sapphire metal additive manufacturing (AM) system.

This is the first titanium-dedicated metal 3D printer from VELO^3D that will be used solely for aerospace & defense applications, according to the company. Primus has identified VELO^3D‘s AM system as a solution for many applications it currently produces, including cube satellites, hypersonics and turbine engines.

The Colorado-based company is a top-tier supplier for leading defense primes and the majority of aerospace OEMs, including Lockheed, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, and Raytheon.

“Primus is proud to be a leader in this manufacturing category,” said Gary Vaillancourt, vice president of engineering & technical sales. “Our customers require maximum performance of their aerospace-related systems and, together with VELO^3D, we can redefine what is possible in manufacturing through advanced AM technology.”
