IHI Aerospace, which is engaged in space business, has announced the propulsion module "Pinot-G" for small satellites. "Pinot-G" is a highly innovative product designed for small satellite users, featuring an all-in-one, low-cost, and safe propulsion system. For more details about "Pinot-G," please refer to the link to the IHI Aerospace website at the bottom of this page. This page introduces the use of a thruster (a nozzle-shaped component) made with a 3D printer for "Pinot-G." This thruster was manufactured using Digital Metal's 3D printer. You can find the following information on the page: - Appearance of the component - Appearance when integrated into the device - Scenes from ground combustion tests This is a valuable case that has been permitted to be introduced as a Digital Metal user case, so I highly recommend checking it out.
