Technology & Products
Key Products
3D printed titanium aerospace components; precision gears, gearboxes, actuators, shafts, couplings; design-for-additive engineering; post-processing/finishing (CNC, electropolishing, tribo-finishing, blasting).
Technological Advantage
Combines legacy aerospace precision-manufacturing certifications (traceability, quality control) with metal additive manufacturing, enabling qualified titanium AM parts for certified aerospace programs.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Integrated design-print-finish metal additive manufacturing service (via BMT Additive subsidiary) combined with decades of aerospace precision gear and gearbox manufacturing expertise.
How They Differentiate
Leverages 50+ years of certified aerospace precision manufacturing heritage and existing OEM relationships (Pratt & Whitney, Airbus) to qualify additive titanium parts faster than pure-play AM startups.
