THE ULTIMATE 3D ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING. Our scientists discovered and industrialized Rapid Plasma Deposition™ (RPD) a game-changing technology for the production of aerospace-grade structures. Titanium wire is melted in an inert argon atmosphere to be precisely and rapidly built up in layers to a near-net-shape that requires very little finish machining. Production cost is 50% to 75% less than legacy forging and billet techniques due to significantly less waste and machining energy.
