HUNTSVILLE — Space is in the name of this Rocket City-based small business, but that’s not necessarily its limits.
Though SpaceFactory is designing habitats on Mars for NASA, the 3-D printing company can help area businesses deal with new challenges from the recently announced tariffs.
The Huntsville-based advanced manufacturing company said its processes can address supply chain disruptions triggered by the tariffs.
“We’re here to help Huntsville-area businesses explore domestic production,” said CEO David Malott. “Not only to strengthen their own supply chains, but to enable them to create new products and services that can serve a national market.”
Their large-scale 3D printing system, capable of building parts up to 4 feet by 4 feet by 5 feet will offer local firms the opportunity to produce cost-competitive components domestically, reducing reliance on overseas suppliers.
In the coming months, SpaceFactory will work with companies across the region by providing design-for-additive-manufacturing guidance and launching pilot programs that cover feasibility studies, printing, and testing — all with minimal upfront investment.
The small startup business said it can support manufacturing aids such as custom jigs and tooling. SpaceFactory can also provide rapid prototyping and finished products for consumer and industrial applications.
